Hopefully this one pans out for you! I was up there just a few weeks ago and you have got a lot going on. Now if only we can get a tower of equal height in Boise...
Thanks for posting this. You beat me to it. Been too busy at work!

FYI this project was previously proposed around 2003-2004. I think the chances now are like 75% the project will be approved and completed.

If the building turns out to be 19 stories, it will be around the same height as both the current Coeur d'Alene Resort tower (216 ft. 18 stories) and Parkside condos (213 ft. 20 stories). Combined with the upcoming 173 ft. 15 story One Lakeside building, which should break ground soon, and the 171 ft. 15 story McEuen Terrace building, Cd'A will have a pretty rocking skyline.

As a matter of personal preference and lake sight lines, though, I would like to see this proposed tower a tad shorter though...maybe 14-16 stories. BTW, the rendering in all of the news articles looks horrible...
