    Elevator winches?

    I wish them luck, to be sure, but echo the same concerns. Having to walk through a de facto homeless shelter into or out of your home during certain hours is going to be a tough sell.

    Now people are going to steal it.

    What’s the blue fencing stuff for?

    My idea was to give it to CrossFit and have them do some kind of workout that involves manual demolition and running up and down stairs with buckets of debris.

    Ideally it would have been neat to repurpose the West building, but I don't remember that much about it honestly, apart from wanting to get the heck away from it whenever I went by, but that's not its fault directly. The Montagu would have needed a redo as well. On net, can't complain.

    prior to the JW opening and BG Place being built, that block was skanky as all get out. Massive turnaround right there.

    Yep, it's all kinds of different. This is looking the other direction from my picture earlier, but you can tell that the whole area is getting reconfigured. It looks like the sidewalks will be wider and the curb will be farther out from the wall, so all of the drainage and whatnot has to move.

    Status of McKinney Street: jacked.

    I was aware of Uniqlo from their sponsorships of Djokovic and Federer, but had not heard of Balenciaga, so I looked them up. Who knew I was so forward fashion thinking when I dressed like this as a geeky 12 year old kid from the 'burbs. Fashion is a strange business, more power to them, I guess.

    Getting close.

    Probably should for many reasons, but as a reminder of just how bad this thing is, it's an interesting artifact.

    Skybridge to 1HC is open.

    That's good news. As suboptimal as the particular design may have been, it was going to be awful if left to decay 10% complete as it has sat for the last few months.

    Looks quite dormant, there is no activity that you can see from the street.

    The end product should work out much better for the area, I think HC was supposed to be some massive mall complex that was cut way short. I'm not sure if the original designs would have held up better had that vision come to pass, but this has some real potential. Add some more residential and whatever else they're doing with the Skanska stuff, and you have the DG walking area radius looking like a really great neighborhood.

    Awesome spot. Quoting to get it on the next page in the thread.
