I'm liking the facade. Could end up being a nice, classy addition.

Before this was The Safari Inn, it was an attractive historic building aka The Grand Hotel. Some of the historical architectural elements are still visible.

Thanks, Sawtooth!

Can you check your photo files, though? They're showing up massive on my screen.

You're welcome.

There were issues over the weekend with Photobuckets server and all of my photos were blown up in size. I checked again and they are sized properly: width=1024&height=678&fit=bounds

Per Photobucket, try clearing your browser, cookies, cached data, etc. and then the photos should display as the correct size.

Strange, did you close the browzer and reopen it after clearing the data? I just had a friend I'm with look on her phone and they are displaying at the correct size.

Photobucket recently updated their website and app and then had server issues.

Nice shot from Boise Open twitter feed of sunrise over the Treasure Valley, from the 10th tee at Hillcrest CC on the Boise bench.

seems like whenever one crane comes down, two more go up.

the two in this image (taken by trails) are for an 8-story condo and 7-story apartment building. there's also another 7-story apartment going up right next to the red crane on the left, so there may be one more crane yet to come.

new, 12-story senior housing/office/retail/parking proposal for the south side of downtown.

image and story from Boisedev:

The 12-story project above just received unanimous approval by Boise's urban renewal agency to move ahead.

Developer is hoping for design approval later this fall, groundbreaking in 2021 with completion in 2023.

Also, Sawtooth shared a photo showing the progress of the 11th and Idaho building, which will also include a new urban park on the north side of the block:



Hopefully this building will start a trend of adding more density to the west end of downtown, where there are currently a ton of surface parking lots.

the ICCU tower on the east side has been redesigned and reconfigured to meet neighborhood concerns. It flops the two towers so the taller one is on the north side, and adds more housing to the south tower.

design has not yet been approved, so additional changes may be yet to come.

full story and image below from Boisedev.

As seen on Boisedev

A couple of blocks north of the new 11th and Idaho building. Still just in proposal stage but nice to see the city expanding out.

Nice update, thanks!

Looking forward to having that park done, too. I don't get downtown much these days, so I'll be curious to see how all of the east side condo projects are coming along... and the St Luke's expansion, too.

Couple of new renderings of two proposals. Both images from weknowboise.com.

The first is of the Senior Living building on River Street, south side of downtown. This project has been approved.



Second one is of Whitewater and Main, on the western edge of downtown in an area that's already seen some new development.

Here are some recent aerials of downtown from Shutterstock that show progress on the 11th and Idaho building.
