Is this project (farb apartments City Place II) complete? I wasn't sure if I should add it to the development map.

Cool! Anyone who hasn't kept tabs on The Susanne should check it out - by far the fastest mid rise project in town.

The Savoy's renovated facade is such an improvement. I was in Chicago recently and stayed in a nicely redone hotel of about the same vintage - it can be a very cool, retro experience when done well.

My comment is based on the Camden quote in the 5/7 chron article saying they have no start date. We didn't have an exact date before, but initial sources in this thread and the downtown development map at least had it down to a specific quarter.

I'm confused by the decision to delay the project immediately after deciding to expand it. Do they have two very conflicting reads on the market, or is the delay to give them more time to accommodate/fund the larger project?

In the existing footprint with two floors of parking included in the height, the two buildings had 16 occupied floors at 32.37 units per floor. If both buildings are 21 floors now, it's 38 floors at 15.26 units each. Even if they only bump the 12 story up to 21, that drops the units per occupied floor down to 23.2. So there are 3 options for what is happening: 1) a typo 2) a MAJOR increase in square footage per unit 3) a skinny tower slapped on top of one of the buildings. I'm hoping for #2, but #1 seems most likely. Edit: just saw that Urbannizer confirmed. Mea Culpa for the cynicism and here's hoping for#2!

Just to play devil's advocate here: I think the original height for one of the buildings was 12 stories, and it would be a pretty simple for a map editor to accidentally type 21...

I was one of the haters but it is looking much better now - the dark brown rails and trim help immensely. And as others have said, the increased density is awesome.

Broadstone Midtown Phase I & II: Multifamily At 3800 Main St.
Alec replied to KinkaidAlum's topic in Midtown
So just to be clear, the grassy lot in the photo above is where we think phase II is going? I got really excited when I saw soil testing happening there last year, but I assumed the funky access might rule out a project this big.- 214 replies

There's a structure I can't identify sitting in the "staging area" at the base of the tower. Any ideas if this is a form for the crown, or maybe a mold for the modular garage?

Such a beautiful rendering. My only complaint is that someone was so insecure with it they felt the need to neuter the Chevron tower in the background. It's okay that your building isn't the only tall one!
