thanks Ex-Ithacan. you have impeccable timing--Visum Development (of Ithaca) announced in their recent newsletter that they're preparing to break ground very soon on their Boise apartment project, the Vanguard:



will be a nice addition to downtown. wish it was about twice as tall, though.

Pic of the Home2Suites going up taken from a balcony at the Inn at 500. Hard to see but there were also workers on the roof of the BizPrint prepping for the tear down for The Vanguard. Also saw the ground broken for Caddis and Cartee with both well under way.

that's an interesting angle. if the two residential projects on 6th and Grove get approved, that view will change quite a bit with 4 projects between 6 and 8 floors filling in the space.

also, the crane for the 11th and Idaho building went up this week.

new residential proposal on the west end. this would replace a run-down art deco building.

Sawtooth added a few more construction progress images here:

http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...45#post8770845

A lot of activity going on now. Nothing is what I'd call significant--most projects are in the 7-10 floor range, but they still will add some good density.

the residential proposal between Whole Foods and Winco took a step forward towards groundbreaking. according to the Idaho Press, construction could begin in the spring (image from Idaho Press):



Quote:
BOISE — The developer of new apartments near the downtown Boise WinCo Foods will be reimbursed with urban renewal funds for almost $1 million of infrastructure costs.

On Monday, Capital City Development Corporation unanimously approved up to $988,276 to refund St. Louis-based developer CDG Acquisitions for infrastructure improvements around its proposed seven-story apartment building next to WinCo Foods on Myrtle Street. That includes funding for sidewalks, historic street lights, and landscaping along Myrtle and Avenue A.

The $52 million project, which WinCo will own, is set to begin construction in May and be completed in 2022.

this will be the 5th large residential project on the east side to be under construction, with 3 more proposals still in the works for the same area.

Hey appreciate this thread, BoiseBro! I lived there for a couple years and was curious what's going on. Pleasantly surprised on the building going up next to Neurolux! It was just a hazy proposal when I lived there. Looking forward to seeing it in person later this winter (and Bogus Basin)

good deal. you'll be able to check out the progress on all the projects downtown. another tower crane just went up this weekend--the 5th one now downtown--this one for the Park Place apartments on Myrtle.

this is the first year bogus is making snow, so they have a good base. hopefully they'll get a few more storms and fresh powder before you get here.

Boise State has updated its Master Plan. The campus is located directly south of downtown across the river. In the image below, downtown would be to the left of the picture.

A few of the highlights include removal of current height restrictions to allow for taller structures, several new student housing buildings, academic buildings and labs, parking garages, a new theater/arts center, a new baseball stadium (to be completed by next season), and football stadium expansion.

image and article from Boisedev.com.
