Meanwhile, the 67-unit, 17-story Hawthorne, which is slated to start construction in the Tanglewood district by late March and is scheduled for completion in early 2022, is approximately 20 percent pre-sold, according to Bland. The Hawthorne will be Pelican Builders’ 12th high-rise condominium project.

I like that design but why is there a wall separating it from the sidewalk?  That forces long detours for pedestrians and discourages walking.  Walkability is a key urban feature.


 

People who buy $1.2 million condos do not want people that have to walk places anywhere near them.

There is a Metro stop at that corner on San Felipe.  It may also cut of traffic noise and having to stare at backed up traffic when they arrive to drop their car off.

People sure do love to complain when something affects them directly. Lane closures have existed forever and now it matters to them. Yeah it is super annoying and I used to commute on these roads and it will back up. But no worse than what the Post Road bus project did and countless others in the area. It is part of construction and growth. Not only that but the streets within Tanglewood have been closed off and on for months as they just got repaved.
