Brady District

[we vs us]

Three walls are up at the KOTV site, tribune lofts expansion is all but complete, ground work is happening at the fairview and the Brady park and the pad at Brady Park is being poured for the restaurant.

I'm ready for the lofts by the ballpark to break ground.  Me likey condo units.

Not sure how I feel about this. Archer was a designated bike route, wasn't it? The fact that it was four lanes made it more comfortable for cycling without feeling like you were impeding traffic. And even with four lanes, I still got my share of angry, honking, gesturing drivers who were highly offended by having to change lanes to pass me.

Agreed.  When I saw what they were doing outside of the tribune(s) I was unthrilled.  Since they brought it down to one lane and installed parallel, the remaining two lanes are wide enough that a bike lane could be striped there.

I'm ready for the lofts by the ballpark to break ground.  Me likey condo units. 

I am becoming increasingly suspicious that those will not happen.  I've heard about them forever, but, as yet, no movement has happened on them.  I hope they do happen, but I have a standing rule that if a project doesnt get moved on within a year of its rumor starting, I start to get suspicious, then sceptical, and finally pessimistic.

In the past week or so, visible progress has begun inside the market/grocery store on Archer. Some appliances have been moved in. Prior to that, nothing significant (from peering in the window) had changed for months. In another thread, Blake said it'd be a pretty quick renovation, so hopefully that place opens soon.

It will be.

Awesome.

That giant BOK lot on Archer near Boston now appears to be open. The gate's always up when I pass by late at night. The new street parking on Archer isn't getting much use on weeknights. I have a hard time imagining it being full most weekends, either.

So with those two additions, plus the coming opening of the new Williams Center garage on nights and weekends, we have way more than enough free parking down there.

Speaking of the Fairfield Inn, has construction started on it as well?

[jacobi]

Yep.  The hotel has beams going up already.  The metro is very close to being done.  Once the metro is done then the lofts project to the south of hey mambo can start.

In related news they are doing Reno work on the old lettercraft space next to th cigar bar.  I heard it might be a burgerand chicken spot.  No lease signed as yet.
