Walking down Chestnut street yesterday, I was amazed by the number of recently emptied buildings, especially in adjacent pairs and larger groups. We know that Pearl is planning something at 19th and Chestnut, and we know that the PHA is hoping to get their property redeveloped, but there is a lot more going on.
I have a friend that lives in 1352 so I should post some pictures of SouthStar. Let me just say though. I think it's the ugliest new building of the year. My god is it ugly.

Finally a structure is up. I have pictures, but don't have time to upload them yet. I pass by there everyday on my commute on the train so I'm happy to see something finally go up.
