Hampton Roads Off-Topic Talk


Cotuit

Recommended Posts


"There are some very promising plans for other tall condo and apartment towers as well."

Could you further elaborate on this?

Just the things you already know about. Kotarides tower (15 storeys), Oswald Hoffler (35?), The Big Boat (25 +- stories), and more of The Ocean Beach Club (20 stories).

Oh, and Norfolk's Redevelopment@Housing Division could use more space and they are quietly discussing building a tower on Granby Street similar in size to the Royster Bldg. Nothing firmed up yet, but that would add some more height to the street-scape heading North.

Is this the first time this has been mentioned? Where did you hear about it?

I'm thinking possibly this could go in HR Off-topic...? Am I the only one a bit embarrassed to have "Automated Garbage Pickup" at the top of our forum?

:lol: I was trying to give him a chance to explain himself before I dumped the thread in off-topic. Seeing as it hasn't been responded to yet though off we go.

Hampton Roads is ready for our close-up

This got me thinking of a television series that was filmed here back in 1994. I remember them filming a lot of Norfolk's urban areas and if I'm mistaken they blew up a storefront in one episode. I think they also filmed some of the ports and marinas in the area also. Did any of you ever watch this?
