that's very interesting to hear.

i hadn't been holding out much hope for this one.

October Ground Breaking?
 

Not sure if it means anything but when asking on their FB page when ground breaking would occur I got this response.


"We are breaking ground this October!"

Next month? That doesn't seem right. Is this even approved/financed yet?

I'd take that with a grain of salt.

^ Come October:

"We are breaking ground this November!"

Come November:

"We are breaking ground this December!"

Come December:

"We are breaking ground like NEVER!"

It's been approved for a couple of years now. There were a soil testing rig spotted on site earlier this summer, i can imagine prep work starting soon.

Hell yes! While not my favorite proposed skyscraper, I won't say "no" to another 800 footer ESPECIALLY in this area of town.

Good reporting my dude, I ask them on their Instagram page in July also they told me later this year. I can believe this.

I'm still disappointed they won't build the original design, and I'm constantly reminded by the thumbnail image above.

Is a GC officially selected for this? Are drawings out to subs, etc.?

Right... I'm happy someone got it in writing at least. If they don't start then, I think we should put the thread into hibernation mode

Unless they mean October 2020 lol

What is the current design?

Their marketing budget seems alive and well. Anyone else getting targeted a lot?

Yeah I see their ads all over instagram.

For real. if the reports of slow sales are true, it's certainly hasn't been from a lack of advertising effort.

Go to Page 1 for the latest renderings. I think there are others within the past 10 pages as well.

and prepare to be disappointed

GC is McHugh. I heard they have a hard requirement of breaking ground this year so are targeting a December ground breaking. I'm unclear on whether this is due to a city requirement or some other hard deadline, but the project team is allegedly working towards a December start.

So, lie number 1000 confirmed from the 1000M marketing crew lol

Should go on gram and put them on blast

This does seem to be lie #1000, but does anyone really care if it ends up being December? I had almost counted this one out earlier in the year and now feel so excited that we're getting a unique, 800ft+, skyline-changing tower with perma views of the lake/park. Even if this gets delayed again until 2020, I'm so excited for this one!
