Re: Capping the Loop
the whole point of making downtown more attractive is to get more butts out and about in more places more often. empirical descriptors of low traffic levels in the status quo aren't all that persuasive in this context, at least to me. this is especially true when we are talking about 2020-2023 vehic...

Re: Capping the Loop
huge fan of a cap. huge fan of a park. i find it really surprising that folks on this board are proponents of deleting the grid for what is, from a programming perspective at least, pretty transparently vaporware. the delete walnut proposal doesn't even pretend to do any meaningful activation of wha...

Re: Condo Demand in Downtown
i'd be real surprised at a tower (like 8+ stories) in the next couple years. condo projects the scale of 423 delaware seem to make a ton of sense to me scattered throughout the core, and we haven't seen one since... ??

Re: Mac N’ Co. graduates from Parlor to downtown space
of course, it's completely different, and that's fine. i'm just saying it doesn't necessarily follow that all multi-concept or multi-kitchen establishments are good incubators for eventual standalone restaurants. parlor seems particularly well set up to do that over time. strang lightwell seems part...

Re: Mac N’ Co. graduates from Parlor to downtown space
i haven't been to the strang in OP but the strang collective in lightwell feels way worse than parlor in terms of letting a space make its own brand in a way that feels portable. strang lightwell is a nice little spot but feels very whitewashed, like a lobby of an apartment building, with the only b...

Re: Power and Light District Official Tenant List
johnnys stopped doing pizza by the slice at some point during the pandemmy. they do sell different sizes of pizza. one of those sizes may be an ostensibly personal pizza. but i believe it is like 12" or so. ice house should take its little unutilized private patio with side room and turn that i...

Re: Misc Crossroads News
the pool space at the belfry has been basically ready for months. it looks awesome. they've always staffed pretty leanly so interested in how they'll handle all the extra sqft through the same kitchen/bar. we got a lil' guy in tow now so we visit at weird enough hours we probably won't get a good fe...

Re: Three Light
sat at a bar next to a couple construction workers in high vis around thanksgiving, bartender was asking them about the status and they were talking about how it was running behind schedule and they weren't getting through the floors as quickly as expected in the current phase. i think they said mor...

i think jeffrey at houndstooth prefers to only handle tailoring for stuff bought there, but that may have changed. their OG tailor lorenzo who was the fucking best passed away fairly recently. i don't know who jeff brought in to replace him and those were big shoes to fill but jeff's got an excellen...

Re: Capping the Loop
maybe could talk me into it if it's the difference between the rolls royce of highway caps with zero gaps and heavily mitigated road noise for the entire length or--even better--the demolition of the highway itself through there. but we all know that's not what's happening. so meh. extra platform ov...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
i hope you're right TLG. this got me thinking... the way you've laid it out there would mean an ESE angle from home plate to center. that's not a total nonstarter (see https://tht.fangraphs.com/lost-in-the-sun-the-physics-of-ballpark-orientation/ ), but would be an odd choice for a blank slate. i am...
