Out of the three types of towers (office, hospitality, and residential), it is the office type that appears to be the most difficult to get funding for.

It would really be something to have 6 or more office towers under construction at the same time. 

Fifth and Broad

Nashville Yards

One KVB

Endeaver

The midtown tower

The tower(s) on the former west end summit land.

We could have consolidated it all in a few taller buildings, but I rather have more density than height.

There's been a core driller in the lot across from Velocity/Bar Louie for the past two days. To the best of my knowledge that's Marketstreet's property and not part of the W lot.

The lot in question is 329 11th Ave. South, at the NW corner of 11th Ave. South and Pine Street, just north of The Thompson Hotel.

MarketStreet Enterprises owns the 0.88-acre parcel.  No official word from them as to what the core drilling is exactly for at this point.

My only question is whether this will close the road(s -11th/12th) through the Gulch at 5pm....on a week night?  Yes, I'm curmudgeonly.

As far as I can tell it is mostly businesses in the Gulch setting up tents in the lot by the murals a few times. Should be easy to ignore.

Long home to expert  auto repair?  They've been there about a year if that, it was Brisco's who sold it to someone most likely on the road to learning there really is a top to the market - that would have been when they bought the property a year or so ago.

Cost will be $32 million, and it could be open by early 2020.

While this is great - this city need many times more beds than this will offer. My recently passed mother had dementia and sat in emergency rooms, literally for more than 24 hours while we waited for geriatric mental beds (as this will offer) to open up. As I learned from the staff, while sitting with her, a hefty percentage of typical ER patients (of all ages) were waiting on these type beds to open up. Why not more? Insurance.....

My mom went through dementia and died a few years ago and it was an absolutely horrible way to learn about one of the gaping holes in our health care system. It's hard enough to deal with your loved one degrading every day in front of your eyes, but it evolves into a waking nightmare when you have to try to find a way to look after them for months or years and your insurance offers little to no help. You slowly realize that you've landed in an unlucky corner of the system where nobody has figured out how to make a profit on it, so the default plan is to wait until you reach an emergency, then pass you around until someone can get you temporarily patched up and out the door, knowing full well you're going to be back soon.

 All the different forms of dementia are due for a massive uptick over the next decades as boomers get older, and very few have family that are in a position to provide full-time care. It's going to get messy.
