Wasn't that the site of the Grayco Lakeshore project? It was a big project with multiple buildings. The two tallest ones were supposed to be 12 floors tall and about 130 feet. About the same height as the tallest building in the Riverview Apartments, also under construction on Riverside.

Definitely construction on a large scale going on along Riverside in fact a small crane is up, large ammount of land has been cleard. Looks like one of the strip malls will be torn down as well. Im assuming there are updated renderings somewhere.

Also was driving around West Campus earlier today, can't remember what street I was on but there is a site that has a massive digout for what im guessing will be an underground garage. Its deep, I was shocked at the shear size of it. No signs and as far as I know I have not seen or heard of it but you dont usually see a huge ground dig out unless a fairly good size tower is going up. I do remember it was not far from MLK. There is a lot of stuff going on in West Campus, a lot of properties have been cleard out and construction everywhere.
