DP was approved with revisions. From what I gather current renderings don’t reflect approved plans. Would sure be nice to see what will be built!

Does anyone know what's happening with this one? They cleared the site and out of fencing, but nothing has happened since.

It's been on hold, but is back in play. You should see some activity fairly soon.

I live less than a block from here and I noticed that too. I wasn't sure if it's new or not, but I'm pretty sure it is. If so, that would suck. This project needs to be flushed down the toilet.
The last time I went past there (about a month ago) the lot was empty.

It's not a great design, but it checks the boxes. Right scale ✔ Retail at grade ✔ residential on top ✔ benches and planters in front ✔

Bold... they called this thing bold? I wan't to slap whoever wrote that article title. Well I guess a plus is I'll be able to get updates every morning and afternoon going to/coming home from class.
*sigh* At least it's a hole getting filled *pun majorly intended*

Bold....? uh, nope. I am glad to see it getting built though. It's the last remaining unused lot along 4th, now we have to hope some of the parking lots disappear.

I don't hate it, I actually like the white with the yellow. I don't like the fake looking stone or whatever it is at the main level.

On what grounds do you believe the City has to deny or delay this project? I think people perceive that planning staff have more control over design (i.e. materials, etc) than what is the reality.
This might be one of those cases where the rendering is partly at fault. I wouldn't be surprised if the gray stone was really more of a modern brick. well, let's hope so. I thought that might be the case with Oscar, but it ended up being just like the rendering. I'm fine with the portion above the podium.
