If leasing at Intro warrants it, there will be a second phase. Watch the leasing this fall and look for official news toward the end of this year or early next year.

May 18, 20214 yr How quickly Intro leases commercial space should be a real measure on how we are coming out of the pandemic. If a dynamite place like that can't fill up quickly then we are in trouble. I'm betting on pretty fast leasing but what do l know?

There’s going to be a lot of awesome views of a downtown skyline bulked up by the addition of a new SW Tower.  Loving it!Â
May 18, 20214 yr ^Also shows what two-bit developers MRN are, with their mini empire of surface lots across the street.Â

May 24, 20214 yr Some pics from a few days ago: A really great addition to OC especially with hopefully phase two building, a renovated mix use Voss Industry buildings, and perhaps with a MRN new building on their empty lot next to their United Building!
May 24, 20214 yr well that sure beats a well used, but cheap looking strip plaza for presence! Â it is quite amazingly sharp looking, isn't it? very impressive !!

May 27, 20214 yr Project and Construction threads are for news and discussion of actual projects. They are not for arguments about what businesses you think should move in (especially if the business in question has shown no interest in signing on), or if you think we should have chains in the city.

June 3, 20214 yr Also Crop Bistro closed (*cries*). I know Crop wasn't a steakhouse, but its disappearance leaves a bit of a fine dining gap.

I know it's been said throughout but what a cool project - idk if it's going to be raining on my bike ride home today/able to get a pic but it's starting to peek over the L-C Bridge, really cool experience with it coming into focus vs what was there previously. I'll say it again, really, really cool stuff lol
June 4, 20214 yr Here's a restaurant floor plan for anyone interested: A bit disappointed since this makes it look like one of the pedestrian underpasses is gone but more excited for everything else about this. The second floor at the corner will also be part of the restaurant. Edited June 4, 20214 yr by tykaps

June 4, 20214 yr And Duck Island residents are concerned about traffic due to Stoneleigh, there’s what, 4 cars visible in those pictures?

L-C Bridge is one lane down (headed W) at the base for construction and it barely affects traffic. If anything people can't go 57MPH into Ohio City at the moment.Â

June 15, 20213 yr wait, the open part is the northwest facing side, is that right? facing the market?  that is really going to catch all the afternoon light well.    Edited June 15, 20213 yr by mrnyc

Which would be REALLY cool and a great way to incorporate the project right into the street.Â
June 17, 20213 yr Seeing all the glass in some of these photos makes me think what a timeless design this is. To the untrained eye it could be an old industrial building that's being refurbished and expanded. Truly a beautiful building.
