@Critical_Mass

I can never see your photos you post.
Not sure what's going on.

Re: people not being able to see my photos:
I used postimg.org on some earlier posts but that URL is blocked at my office so I stoped using that one. These latest images are on photos.google.com. Perhaps you need a google account to view them. Some people are seeing them based on JBmidtown's comment.
Does anyone recommend an alternative image host or am I doing something wrong with my photos on Google's servers?

They showed for me yesterday when you first posted them, but now they don't.

FWIW, I see them on my pc but not my kindle fire.

[grovester]

It's not you, I just tried the computer I was using yesterday and they show. Must be a setting or add on.

Imgur works pretty well for me.

Is there a project underway at the SE corner of 19th & Oak? I noticed that block has been getting cleared out / cleaned up but I can't find any info other than demolition permits.

Here are some Abbot Properties projects that I noticed listings for:

1608 Locust (office conversion):




1700 Locust (office conversion)



1901 Cherry (staying industrial/warehouse)



And 1801 Oak (will have office space, in addition to the known restaurant tenants)

1901 Cherry (staying industrial/warehouse)

I understand it's staying industrial but that is disgusting.
It's straight out of the 1970s and covers the windows?
Really?

SMG at 18th and McGee has outgrown their space and is looking to move. It appears they will leave the Xroads area, just not sure where.

not terrible news. as a 100% office use, they consume at three surface lots flanking 18th and oak. that building would be better suited to residential with ground-floor restaurant or retail.

Maybe I missed this but what's going on with the old Bob Jones warehouse building at the NW corner of 19th and Grand? It looks like it's being gutted and a new facade carved out.

Strange, don't see any permits on file for the two parcels it's on.

What is the development pictured here? Isn't this the new hotel on Main? If so, Strange that they would use a wood construction.
