The question is not what you look at, but what you see.

Anyone know the timeline for the Boulder bridge replacement?

Killjoy!

Mild thread drift:  The cigar bar next to hey mambo, behind where the hotel will be, is now open.  I was their first customer.  Ever.

We need some new pictures but anyone else notice this building is made of wood?

[BKDotCom]

2nd floor is supported by steel & has a concrete floor  (2 steel supports seen in above pic).
It is quite common for hotels to be constructed of timber.

Here's an image I took just now.  The bottom is steel framed.  The rest is wood.  Not sure why that would be an issue.  It will be bricked on the exterior like the Metro according to all the drawings I've seen so not sure why it matters.  Wood framed construction, if done properly, is good quality and will last for as long as you take care of it.

This is looking great! It'll be nice when the brick goes up and we can see the finished product. Maybe then the Brady Flats will dinally get going. Thanks for the pic Dan.

Just noting the fact it's the only thing downtown in recent memory built of wood.

Actually, the building across the street (Metro at Brady, in this picture even) is also made of wood. The Fairfield at least has a first floor made with steel beams.

This is going to be a nice looking building.

Are there any confirmations on first floor tenants?
