I imagine it will go up quickly given it is only four stories and there is no underground component. This combined with the Sovereign is positive change for this area of Old Town.

Going by the renderings it would appear that the first five floors of Sovereign (facing north) will be directly impacted by The Argus and floors 6+ will not have any blocked views.
[Edit] The first six floors of the Sovereign facing north will have their views blocked.

Does anyone know where I can find more information on this project? I bought in the Sovereign and want to know whether or not I will be facing a brick wall or if the developer will be including some outdoor space at the rear of the building? (wishful thinking). Is there a 3D design as yet? Are there any further meetings coming up about this project? Any links that anyone has to more information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Ok, this is hard to describe in writing, but I'll do my best. There is a courtyard between the buildings on west side about 75' long. On the east side the building abuts the Sovereign and Yarrow building and is about 30' long and stops at the 4th floor which is a rooftop deck.
I hope that makes sense. Feel free to ask if that didn't make sense
Welcome to VV, Stu. This project is approved and construction will be starting soon. There's lots of info on the previous page of this thread (we're on page 2 right now) including renderings.
Going by the renderings it would appear that the first five floors of Sovereign (facing north) will be directly impacted by The Argus and floors 6+ will not have any blocked views.
The building is only 4 floors so the 5th floor and above views will not be blocked.
Farmer was the original GC, but they withdrew. Yes construction is close, I don't know who the GC is yet.

Thanks for your posts. So it sounds like the building will go to the 6th blocking the view. My unit is on the east side.. So if I understand the comment about outside terraces.. The Argus will abut Yarrow and Sovereign until 30' high (?) and then there will be a deck? - would this line up with the deck on the 3rd floor of the sovereign? And then there would be open space...? Any idea of depth of the deck. Would be nice to be looking at a terrace and garden. Thanks again!
The deck is at around 42'. I don't have the drawings for the Sovereign so I couldn't tell you what they line up with. the deck is roughly 16'x30'. The open space courtyard is like a giant light well down to 0' or the level of Fort St

The rumor is Farmer is back in as a possible GC. So far there is no confirmation who it is yet
