Any idea when this is supposed to be complete? I live near it but haven't seen anything. I think it will be interesting to say the least. I'm hoping it brings some life to that little area. I love public spaces and wish people would utilize them more socially (Mariano Park at the Viagra Triangle to the north is pretty well utilized in the warmer months though).

There is a little bit there in the summer months...Sofitel has some lounge seating outside across the street, Goddess and Grocer and Cru are right around the corner too, and McCormick and Schmick's has some outdoor seating. I really wish someone would take the commercial/retail space at 50 E Chestnut, but I'm guessing since it's never been leased...it's too expensive.

Anyway, here's hoping that this will be "something."
