Re: OFFICIAL: Port Authority Riverfront Project

Is this restriction associated with the Lowe's agreement ( no subsidies for 500 rooms for 10 years, I think) or a different restriction on the Port Authority?

Re: Misc Crossroads News

Dave, if you know that, then maybe you have insight into why the owner wants to keep it that way. It's inconceivable to me. If I were the owner, I'd be happy that I could make such a great contribution to the Crossroads and the city by developing or selling for development.

Re: Fantasy Retrofits: Barney Allis Plaza

Does anyone know who designed Barney Allis? Or Ilus Davis? Or the small plaza to the south of the Federal Building? I'm asking because of the similarities in design. I feel like all three were designed to make sense to people 20 stories up and not to be pleasant to people on the ground.

There are currently empty units. Demolition will occur in stages and residents will be given an opportunity to move into still standing, empty units.

Re: OFFICIAL: Power & Light District

"People always want the law to be what they want and not what it is."

And, today, we have a Supreme Court that has no problem making that 'want' come true for themselves.

First political thing I've posted on here in 20+ years. But, these are desperate times.
