Sorry, I just don't think $1300+ for a tiny studio is a great thing. But hey, I'm probably not their target socioeconomic level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. If for any reason this area doesn't succeed long term, can you imagine the slum this will make? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtterlyUrban Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Is it just me or does it already look like a slum? The construction flotsam is helping to create the illusion but, remove that flotsam and add the flotsam of some residents and........ yuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdog08 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) I don't think it's ugly. It will look better when some of that white space will be broken up with signs for store fronts. I take this development as a win for Midtown as it brings residents, retail, and public parking. Yes, parking which is still needed to support retail but will also be used to park and go to multiple establishments. Regardless, this along with the other developments announced or under construction alongside the rail is finally filling in the major gaps in a positive way.

corbs315 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 "Ramen Jo" at 917 Winbern got a cert of occupancy according to the permit site. Is that part of this development, or is it just a neighbor? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_cuevas713 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) That is huge for the neighborhood! Why can't every development look like this one or the one off Smith?

UtterlyUrban Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 A Dentist? Terrific! I am not schooled in urban design and urban planning but it does seem to me that there a a few things broad neighborhoods need and then include doctors (GP's) and Dentists. Downtown has both and all can be walked to. Perhaps midtown already has some, IDK. But it is good to see this one coming and I wish them great success! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
