https://therivardreport.com/earl-abe...k-on-broadway/ I didn’t see anything in the article about this new building. In fact it mentioned several times how significant the new location and move have been for Earl Abel’s, so I can’t imagine they’ll be up and moving AGAIN. Presumably this 1603 Broadway is going to incorporate it somehow or maybe just work around it. |

I was at the general meeting of the Tobin Hill Community Association last week, and the association's zoning representative presented this project to the attendees. He also had renderings, which were very different from these. I believe there was a parking garage on the west side of the building, on top of which the developers said they were building a boutique hotel that would be a total of 18 floors. The meeting attendees seemed fairly happy with the project, including its tall height. I wonder if these were earlier or later renderings?

In the preliminary HDRC agenda that came out today, Graystreet is asking permission to construct a 250' tower on this site.

Is that kind of a jump normal? To go from a 7 floor conceptual rendering to 23 floors in the final draft to be put before the HDRC? Hope it’s spectacular. Imagine the view coming into downtown from 281 and seeing this towering beside the highway... |
Great news. With such an increase in height comes an equal increase in the importance of good architecture. At seven stories I could accept the current design. At 23 stories... nuh-uh.

Heard a rumor that it's gonna be a W hotel
|
What's really interesting is that Graystreet owns acres and acres of land right across Brodaway to develop, but they are still asking for that much height.

Can you explain for the planning-challenged amongst us? Is the idea that they wouldn’t ask for that much height if they were planning something smaller across the street? |
No, just that they have lots of space for their plans, and tall stuff generally happens where space is limited.
|
Hope this is a good one. I'm actually surprised they are going higher in this area. No complaints from me.
