I'm glad this isn't going to be 12-story buildings. This is in the Jordan River nature area that cities were supposed to be preserving. I walk along the river daily and it's bad enough with eBay as a big scar on the landscape, not to mention all the runoff from these buildlings/parking lots feeding into the river.
They are actually building an office park with 8-10 story office buildings a block or two SE of Vista Station, though (outside the Jordan River nature area).

Total Fail!!! This is a waste of a development right by a Frontrunner Station. No where near a TOD. How disappointing.
God I get so tired of getting my hopes up and excited over a suburban city talking big about how they want to be more urban, walkable and build high-rises only to see their plans always falling short and we end up always having to settle for some piece of shit lackluster typical office Park low-rise buildings with a sea of parking lots. Seems like Salt Lake and Murray are the only two cities that we have who truly dare to build anything taller then 12 stories.
Just don't develop that area developers, if you clowns can't do it right.
