UtterlyUrban Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 How usual is it that a building is 40% sold but shows no sign of breaking ground? I honestly have no idea if this is common or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbleweed_Tx Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 And once again I'm drinking at Dirt Bar next door with the lovely Veronica bartending, and there's no progress towards a ground breaking yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(my source being Urbanizer like 6 posts back) Well, I guess even our well-connected Urbanizer can be wrong. Still a parking lot. No fence in sight. 40% sold and not breaking ground. any concerns here? Edited April 7, 2016 by UtterlyUrban Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Town Man Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I walked by the other day and saw a shamrock growing next to the lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I just read a verse from the Bible. But yes you are right Monarch. I mean but still, I think it would look good to visitors for them to see construction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbleweed_Tx Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 it's on Polk, not Dallas. The parking lot guys say there's losing that lot soon. no date, though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cspwal Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Heard from a friend that it should be starting soon - but the lot is still full of cars when I walked by this morning. If I was one of the people who bought a half-million dollar condo I'd be pissed that it hasn't started yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was one of the people who bought a half-million dollar condo I'd be pissed that it hasn't started yet. I hope it does start soon. Half a million is on the low side for the place. I think that I just saw a listing for $1.2m........ i continue to wonder: If the place really is 40%+ sold (and it was reported that all financing is in place too), I am unclear why it has yet to start. I wouldn't think that it was availability of construction crews given the economy. So, perhaps Mr. Davis is just being a bit cautious given the economy. But, yah, if I was in that first wave of buyers and I was told, as reported here, that it would start in "November" and now it's May and it still hasn't started, I would not be pleased.

KinkaidAlum Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Hopefully this will be as big for downtown as One Park Place was when it opened the floodgates on new apartments being viable in downtown. Downtown needs more and better options for ownership. I was tempted to buy in the Marlowe but just couldn't pull the trigger with a Randall Davis project. But, if others follow, I'll move downtown for sure. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope that the next few years yields several more new downtown buildings that are residential condos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtterlyUrban Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I don't know anything about foundations, etc.. Can I assume here that there will be "no" excavation and that piles will be driven from current grade instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed_Tx Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 they will need to do a litle digging, there are at least two old foundations on that property.
