I see a plan was just submitted to Compass at 3803 Main St (Boston Apartments) for "Miscellaneous Trade Work Only Commercial" valued at $261k. Not a huge investment, but it is good to see that Alchemy is at least putting some money into their new acquisitions, rather than being negligent, absentee landlords.

My take is that they will wait on it, finish their other plaza area project first, and pick it back up at some point when they get more comfortable with the market. With that curve in the glass I'm sure it is more expensive per unit than the power and light buildings.
It looks like the developers just requested a one year extension on the previously approved plan. So it sounds like they still hope to build at some point, but nothing appears eminent.

Not surprising after recent forward movement with streetcar extension. Imagine what the activity along Midtown/Main will look like when the streetcar funding is 100% confirmed.

They better not mess with Panchos, that place is awesome. Best breakfast burritos in town. 😀

I did find it interesting the listing mentions nearby brands, Snooze & First Watch. Both of which are not particularly close

Agree Panchos has great breakfast burritos but that fast food pad site building with giant lot needs to go and would hope Pancho's finds another home in Midtown.

Once sat in Panchos drive thru line and saw two of the biggest rats I’ve ever seen walk up to the side of the building and climb in. Pulled out of line and have never been back.

The Boston Apartments at 38th and Main.
The formerly known as Narcissist Apartments at 31st and Harrison (was a North Terrace Property).
712 Linwood Blvd (was owned by Knaack).
And 500 Gladstone Blvd.
