Howard Huge Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 So is this one rockin' and rollin' again? This one came to a screeching halt awhile back didn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skwatra Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 A few months back things had really slowed down. Definitely a week or two straight with no activity that I noticed (I live a few blocks away). Over the last month or so there the work has picked up. They have been closing one lane on W Gray pretty regularly and trucks have been going in and out. And their staging area has had plenty of material come in and out.

hindesky Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 The sign ought to read "NO Construction Zone" appears nothing has changed here. These guys make Block 334 look like greased lightning. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skwatra Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Noticed the sign on west gray westbound just before Dolce is updated to say "Lane Closures April 4 to May 4" i believe are the dates. So hopefully that is for Dolce, though could be for Proguard working on the sidewalk in front of their location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skwatra Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Lane closures were for CoH roadwork on W Gray. No signs of any progress at Dolce... haven't seen a worker there for weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLan34 Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) This is what I understand about the status of the project at this time: West Building: - Due to heavy rain last year, the top two floors had to be deconstructed and replaced, along with all the siding. - Nearly all "fixes" are complete, with some small additional work on the roof required. - Currently waiting on permits to begin substantial work again. East Building: - Similar issues, but farther along. - At this time, they are working on permits floor by floor. - Top floor just received permits for plumbing/electrical and they just started installing that equipment. - They will work their way down as the permits come through.

hindesky Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I wonder what the story is behind this building? Only 2 guys must be working on it, the eastern building is starting to look in disrepair already. Hines could have built a 200 story building in the time it's taking these guys. I wonder if they are hoping for a insurance payout. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skwatra Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 They put down all the framework and rebar and actually laid some sidewalk today along Gray. Progress, but the facade of the western buildings hasn't been touched so I assume the fencing will remain up for some time and the new sidewalk won't be accessible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
