  1. Ironically, I saw some traffic on site during my commute this week. Hope to see it wrapped up before summer.
  2. Gotta ask… what happened to the souder pedestrian bridge project? Funding run dry? Seems bizarre for the project to come to a complete halt after announcing a targeted July opening.
  3. They were - but not anymore. Curious if the Fishinger road project is causing the inactivity as the main site entrance is fed from Fishinger.
  4. The Golden Bear site has been inactive for quite some time now after some initial site prep work. It was quite a sudden stoppage - likely around early May based on my commute. Wondering what the hold up could be but don't want to purely speculate on anything.
  5. The dark colored metal exterior cladding on Arlington gateway building looks very bad. I was driving east on Lane during the late afternoon today and the sun was catching the upper northwest facing corner - I couldn’t grab a photo due to driving but the metal is wavy and generally looks terrible.
  6. So the cell tower is… staying? Going? Cannot wait to see.
  7. The 670-facing facade of that garage is still not adhering to what was approved. Although I dont care much for ad space, it would look better than what we currently have. It’s a shame that NRI will get away with that. EDIT: I guess the signage was not approved but due to be reviewed at a future commission meeting. Curious if this is still a potential or if we are just left to deal with a half-brick half-concrete facade. It needs some sort of treatment in my opinion.
  8. Really hopeful for an impactful lighting treatment to highlight this building. Had similar hope for the Hilton (at least the crown) and was let down greatly.
  9. Definitely giving Wynn/Encore vibes albeit with the “stripes” running vertically
  10. Genuine question.. is that E/W rail line between Grandview crossing and Goodale active? I do not recall ever being stopped by a train on Grandview ave when I’ve been in the area.
  11. Remind me - is the ground level of this building retail/tenant space?
  12. It’s a real shame the Eastern wall is completely free of windows..
  13. I wish that BEACON sign was activated at night. That would pair really well with the (currently on hold) Merchant Building signage proposal.
