Shaw has returned to the central city with his newest project.
The developer has broken ground for a 347-unit rental community at Sale Street an Cedar Springs Road, up the hill from Turtle Creek.
"We are moving full speed ahead," Shaw said Monday, standing on the development site as construction equipment rumbled across the Oak Lawn block.
The tract has been vacant since the 1980s when builders knocked down offices on the property to make way for a 30-story office tower complex.
But a real estate bust killed those plans.
Later the property was eyed for a Ritz-Carlton hotel, but that deal fell through, too.
And since then the property has been idle. It's owned by investor General Electric Pension Trust.
Shaw's Columbus Realty Partners is teaming up with GE to build two buildings of almost eight stories on the land.
...
The first units should be ready in about a year, he said.
JHP Architecture designed the project.

These two buildings are being built on the northern half of the GE property that will house the two office towers mentioned a few posts ago.
