kingwilliam Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 This is the abandoned Villaje del Rio development on Broadway near Jones Street. Ed Cross bought the development and as you can see gave it a new design and a new name. Broadway Lofts Thanks to Andres for including these images on his River North site. Quote
satown Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 does anyone know it is going to have retail on the street level? Quote
editor Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 The sketches make me think "no" -- it looks like parking on the ground level, except for that restaurant. Quote
WarHorse Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I wonder if they'll completely tear down the current shell or use it in some fashion. I know the current shell doesn't seem to allow for parking on the bottom, but of course that's northing a good jackhammer can't solve. Quote
kingwilliam Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) The sketches make me think "no" -- it looks like parking on the ground level, except for that restaurant.There's 8 buildings in total that make up this project, the rendering only shows three, so it's hard to tell if there will be retail, though there will be a grocery store and a restaurant. The previous development had retail included and I'd venture to bet that the new developers intend to have some as well. Edited January 1, 2008 by kingwilliam Quote

txshady Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 any new information on this project? When is it going to be completed? how many units are planned? and the big one, will there be reatail!!!I'm glad to see the project has been saved. So depressing seeing the shell of a new development just sitting there. Quote
WarHorse Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Seems work has finally started on the project redo. They've taken down all of the external walls and seem to be moving from building to building. Quote
