J Money Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Is it related to a montessori school? Doesn't seem like an ideal location for something like that. https://www.montessoridowntown.com/shipra-shadow-creek-campus/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanjorade Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 This has got to be multifamily or a hotel I don't know what else would make sense right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastdwntwn Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Maybe it is something with the buildings that aren't Befit Gym? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 (edited) Goggle shows high rise apartments for a Shipra Tower in Sun City, South Africa. Here are the 2 lots, Shipra Emmacipation is about half used by Be Fit, 1/4 parking lot and the other 1/4 is an empty plumbing business. Shipra Tower is an empty lot now.

samagon Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 neat. if it is apartments, it will say 'conveniently located near light rail station'. once the trees next to the soccer stadium grow in a bit, it won't be that bad of a walk to the stations in the summer, but that's not an enticing walk in my opinion.

That’s a four block walk at most. The trees over near the Stadium actually provide a decent amount of shade. The trees by Circuit are a bit more sparsely situated, but once they mature will provide good shade on that side as well. Maybe I’ve become desensitized due to walking my high-energy dog all over the damn place all the time, but that doesn’t seem like that bad of a walk at all. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasota Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Am I missing something? That walk is fine. Emancipation Avenue could stand a road diet, but it's not that bad. Plus, you can always cut down Walker and walk on the other side of the stadium. Roughly the same distance. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HtownWxBoy Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I live about a block from here ... same distance to the rail ... it's a VERY easy / quick walk to the rail station ... even during the summer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samagon Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 thanks for the feedback, I know when I drive down Emancipation near here I look at the sidewalks and do not find them at all inviting for a walk, I'm sure I just have unreasonable expectations :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasota Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I mean, if you're judging the walk by looking out the window while driving, I'm not sure that has much value. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
