One of the best RM infill projects. Will be nice to have that nasty lot developed. Hope they don't blow it.

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
Even when construction agrees to make a pedestrian passage (5th and grand) it just gets moved and nobody checks up on them and it deteriorates to nothing.DaveKCMO wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2020 3:45 pm Expect the 3rd Street sidewalk to be closed for the duration of construction.

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
Not sure if shown before but Ashland has proposed a dining patio facing/along Grand in the public ROW. Very good news IMHO
Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
Isnt that diagonal reserved for move of the Streetcar stop if/when riverfront expansion occurs? I guess that could be a long way off though and a patio would be a great use in the interim

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
I don't think they plan on using the entire area. I was just trying to illustrate the general area in which it would go.

Here's a mockup of that corner. It haa the sidewalk being moved and nothing is taken for track. Opening it up for tables and umbrellas would be a great use.

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
I'm glad to see this start.
Between this, 3rd and Grand, 5th and Main and the townhouses/row homes talked about previously, the River Market area will get denser. Just need to fill in some of the other lots and expand the success into Columbus Park.

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
Nice infill project. I count 7 floors on the rendering. Does that height preclude wood construction?

Re: OFFICIAL - Ashland at River Market
There are 2 floors of structured parking (concrete/steel). The 5 remaining floors can easily be stick frame. Centropolis on Grand (same developer and architect) was of a similar size and is stick frame.Highlander wrote: ↑Tue Sep 22, 2020 3:03 pm Nice infill project. I count 7 floors on the rendering.
