They havent even poured concrete for the ground floor retail; it is still dirt. Why would they not have poured concrete? Doesn't make sense to me.

Its going to be a busy remainder of the year. 3 projects remain slated to start in 3Q 2014 (that havent already started) and 8 are slated to start in 4Q 2014. Does anyone have any updates on the redevelopment of State National Bank?

In case anyone was worried that last week's surface level clearing was a fluke, the excavator is really going at it now. Dig baby, Dig!

Agreed. You have to set the climate for homebuyers.

The excavator that was digging at Franks has broken ground in the middle of the lot (it also appears that they took down the pay station). I spoke with the excavator operator the other day, and he said that Cherry (the company) was going to excavate both lots. Maybe they are ready to move on this project too?

The Hamilton Apartments At 1800 St. Joseph Pkwy.
Grizzly46 replied to MarathonMan's topic in Downtown
This block seems suited for a gas station or some type of strip center, but not so much for residential. It just seems far too noisy and distanced from the downtown core. I wonder what imppace residential in this area would have on downtown overall. I would think marginal, especially when compared to the emply lots that are readily available in better locales.- 282 replies

Thanks, I would be very interested in seeing that. With as many residents as are planned for that area, we need another market square type park.

With all of the residential moving into south downtown, I wonder if it would be a good idea to build a centeral square type park in that area, just to green up the space and create an outdoor vibe. I don't anticipate that the city has those types of plans, but it would be great.

Wow. This is another Hines project? This will make their fourth highrise construction site in downtown. Amazing.

I just spoke with the guy operating the excavator, and he confirmed that the digging is for a patio for franks (i.e. beer garden). This is good news and bad news. I love the idea of a beer garden, but it would be great to see the tower construction begin.

I just spoke with a manager at Skyhouse 1, who confirmed that Skyhouse 2 downtown is in the works. In fact, she mentioned that they received permitting last week, and it is projected to break ground mid-2015 and be completed sometime in 2016. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

From the development map, it looks like they will build on both sides of the rail line and the train will pass through the parking garage through a tunnel. Has anyone released blueprints or a sketch on how the rail will interact with the building?

The very specific information she had regarding the information intrigued me (i.e. the building location; she also said that there would be two swimming pools on the new building -- one at mid level and one at the top.). I hope this is more than a rumor.

I was talking to a resident of Skyhouse this weekend, and she mentioned that in a conversation with the Downtown Skyhouse project manager, he told her that Novare Group had already purchased the block bounded by Main, Pease, Jefferson, and Fannin, and was planning a second Skyhouse across the first skyhouse ). Can anyone substantiate this rumor? I tend to be very skeptical of hearsay statements like this one.
