According to public record the original sales price was $7.9m so that is quite a haircut. HOA alone is $5500!

After yesterday.... I'm prepared to declare that this nation has entered into a new form of governing - it's called Idiocracy...

It's the meeting space in the hotel I think.

So nothing really new then? Or even more hilarity?
Follow the Senate as the Commerce crowd and the tea party crowd have significantly different agendas. The 1st can readily work with the Pres., the 2nd, not so much.

And now it is Official!

Whole Foods Market will open a flagship store in downtown Denver in 2017, the company announced Wednesday. The store will be located in a new development at 17th and Wewatta streets near Denver Union Station.

So downtown goes from having zero grocery stores to having two in two years. Not too bad. One is a Whole Paycheck where you can pay $10 for a roll of handmade toilet paper, but that's reflective of the clientele that grace DT.

The sad part of Idiocracies is that the majority of voters so willingly vote to accede those into office who have absolutely no interest (as in the above two choices) in legislating for the majority of the voters who voted for them.....

I have to wonder just how much hilarity this country will be able to withstand from this next batch of elected officials? My thinking is that hilarity is better handled by comedians....

oy vey........

Outstanding confirmation!

It's probably only the truly, truly affluent who do the entirety of their shopping at Whole Foods. That being said, I have noticed Whole Foods has lowered the price on many of these types of products such as toilet paper that people can easily cross shop with a Sprouts, Natural Grocers, or even King Soopers, since KS has made a concerted effort to add a huge assortment of organic, natural, and local products.

Go into the WH in Cherry Creek at lunch. Sure, Cherry Creek people do their shopping there, but a huge number of employees of the area pick up their lunch and sundry specialty items there, and they are probably not the type of clientele you are referring to.

This is a boon for all the real estate in that area. Property values just went up (even more).

Yep, one of the two ballrooms on the 2nd floor where the conference center is located.

I was just perusing Sprocket Design's website and came across this: http://www.sprocketdb.com/high-iron-point-concept/. Is this purely conceptual or does this project have legs?
