I'm genuinely a little impressed by how much land they snapped up. That could make for an interesting development.
Although I will be sad to see that Vietnamese restaurant go.

The more new development we get along 16th, the better!
Nice that there is another multi family proposal for the North Hill, but sucks that it would involve losing Van Son, my go to Vietnamese place.

One last post since I have pretty much posted the entire CPC agenda at various locations (including post #4 here), Homes by Avi has a new community plan going in to the west of COP, on the other side of the ring road, which goes to CPC next week:
The proposed outline plan is here:

This one excites me. This could be be the catalyst that gets 19th towards the next level. 19+2 will help, but having two of these in a row opposite to the exiting buildings should be enough to give that feel of a retail corridor.

The developer, Innurskape, has another one a block to the north. Just about to the corner with 2nd Ave, but one house has held out:

The Bow is being sold:

Sounds like H&R REIT is retaining ownership of adjacent lands, so I assume the parcel along 7th Ave. Too bad, maybe a new owner would have been able to finally do something with that piece of land.

I bet we don't see the Bow south parcel developed for another decade. Wonder if the new owners will finally fix the missing panels on the SE corner.
In my fantasy they create a visitor viewing area at the top.

This would be something that they could charge a small sum for and create new revenue streams.

Could they develop the south parcel into something mixed use? Or would the economics not be there?

They wanted about $50 a square foot plus operating costs when they offered it to 'cultural' institutions.
