Now if only there were some construction on the physical site...

From the website: "We are excited to announce the upcoming start of our pre-sale program slated for the end of February 2018. We anticipate a construction start of March 2018."

Well, that's interesting. I wonder what it looks like when the smoke clears. And what's with that poor dog?


Hes on the hunt for paper bags full of uncapped needles

He should check out the Pandora Avenue McDonald's; I understand they are the current "prize" in the children's Happy Meals.

It will be awesome when someone proposes a development for the Capital Iron parking lot across the street from Ironworks. I'd think some public parking (above ground?) with maybe 3-4 floors of residential/commercial would work well here.

The choice of cars is also a little puzzling.....a Honda Insight, a complete flop of a hybrid and an Audi 2 door hatch that isn't sold in North America.

The insight is coming back on the market this summer as a 4-door compact-to-midsize sedan.

Well if dogs walked like that they would spend a lot of time lying on their sides.


Life's a journey......so roll down the window and enjoy the breeze.

I heard today from a reliable source.  The Ironworks project is off the table.  Gone. Finito.

 

Anybody else heard the same thing?  Signs have been gone and so is Le Fevre's interest (apparently).

It wouldn't be the first time a website remained live after a project was cancelled.

I just registered to get more info. I'll advise if they advise me the project won't be proceeding.

And they responded with this email. Make of it what you will.

I just called them and was told it was delayed, but not cancelled.  "waiting for the city".

 

Wouldn't be the first time my reliable sources were wrong.  Also wouldn't be the first time i was wrong.  I know, because my wife reminds me of it every single day.  :)

Being wrong is an awful feeling.
I have sad memories of the time I was wrong, July 8, 1973 IIRC.

This project has been redesigned and the revisions were sent to the city in late January (per dev tracker).

Doesn't look "mean" anymore.  I didn't really like the old one but wow this kills the whole vibe it was trying for.
