I don't see any renderings or details such as the number of units. The building permit is valued around $4.5M, so this doesn't seem to be a particularly large project.

It looks like the builder is Titan Built who also worked on the 44 Washington building, directly to the north of this. So, I wonder if this will be the same team behind this - BRES, NSPJ

I liked the neighborhood but for us, and we weren't crazy about the floor plan, they were a bit too small and the configuration of having to lug groceries etc.. out of a garage a flight of stairs was not really suitable for a retirement home (although elevators were available). I just noticed that since that time, they have raised the price from $550,000 to $640,000. At $550,000, I thought they were priced about right and they would sell but to my surprise they have not even sold off their existing stock. At $640,000, I think they will have a very difficulty time selling these.

I drove past these and liked the designs. Their website hasn't been updated since either November or June but shows only 1 completed home left for sale and 2 under construction homes on the market.

Reece Nichols shows those 3 for sale plus 2 of the next phase plus the model house.

This is becoming a saga. Large NIMBY turn out today at NPD... mostly due to parking... from the large building across the street. Committee members completely crumbled to them, given a hold to 3/20. KC needs people actively supporting the project against them.

Didn't know this was happening. Remind me again - who do we write letters of support to? City Council? Specific city officials?
