Boise Development Thread - Part II

11th - Front Apartments

According from story by Idaho Statesman (Jan 2026) construction should start mid 2027, and take 5 to 7 years for completion. Mark Dee article

I don't beleive it would take 5-7 years to build a 39 story building it took less than 1 year & half for the Arthur to top out @ 26 stories , going out 5-7 years of construction sounds absolutly unfeasable for one , I'm thinking something like from start to finish 28 months to top out , fact JP Morgan's new World hdqtrs took 6 years to build @ 60 stories 1,388' 2.5 million sq.ft. all electric with up to 10 thousand employees , just a fun fact !

It's easy to mix up dates about construction projects, especially when a reporter is interpreting what they're told. The reporting process doesn't help, as there's very little QC or confirmation in the process. For starters the 5-7 might start from today.

Also, completion dates from a developer perspective can be a lot of varying things. First move-in, stabilization (when they're around the market vacancy rate), last move-in (often two years later), finaling the building permit(s) including the ones they use during the lease-up process...

When does development usually pick up again? Fall maybe? Or is this the prime time to build? And if so, why does it feel like the companies are hesitating?

Don't know what's going on , hardly any updates anymore what's happening I see the Boizee page is gone it had old photos from a year ago with no updates so there's that , if I had a way to share photo updates on under-construction projects which are many I would , anyways seems very dull lately as far as I'm concerned Help somebody

I saw this on Reddit the other day. I have no idea about its validity, who posted it, or what information they have, but I thought it was interesting nevertheless.

I thought that this has been the case for a couple months now, that they just have to submit the DR?

Interesting. With a roof height of 186’, this could this actually be 200ft in height , or maybe they will scam us out by mere inches again like they did with the ICCU tower. Either way, this is still a huge development for the area, considering that the red lion is the tallest thing in that whole area, and that is way closer to the main CBD and is likely around 1/3 to 1/2 of the height. Super excited to see how this turns out, and I’m really hoping it goes through because this will be front and center coming to downtown from the connector, and having a pretty tall building like this will really help the skyline to widen out a little more as we progress upwards with 11th and front.
