Re: Mutual Tower on the Library Lot
Mayor Jean said 45-50 floors on GO this morning. Also - HVAC will be incorporated in the floor plates differently than the FNB building, so it may be taller even though the number of floors may be equal or less.

Re: Lake Zorinsky
Does anyone know what the status of this situation is? I haven't been out to Zorinsky in a while to see. As an aside, I think this could be a good opportunity to make lemonade out of lemons. With the clearing of this land, it would be a great time to establish an unpaved hiking/biking trail around t...

Re: Nebraska Medicine
I too was skeptical of the 40 story claim - particularly because of some of the concerns others have raised here. But even if it is half that, I know the facilities at Northwestern Hospital in Chicago and some of those buildings have some significant vertical presence, even at far less than 40 stori...

Re: Nebraska Medicine
A friend at a prominent construction company told me that due to the limited footprint, they are looking at significant height for this structure. He said approximately 40 stories. Perhaps that accounts for the price tag being so high. However, if they end up razing other buildings and having multip...

As a Central Alum, when I heard about this project, I was concerned with it changing the character of the building.

Re: Grandpa's C Mart - Dundee
A few observations: First, I love the amount of brick used here and the detail on the south and east sides - really makes it fit into the neighborhood. Second, the size of this building will take some getting used to. I have been by every few weeks and it still looks huge. Finally, I don't know if i...

If this happens and is anything close to the height of the UP building, it will fill a significant hole in the skyline when looking toward the southwest...for what its worth.

So because this has been delayed for so long, I was curious if the designs/renderings have changed at all, or were they locked in when the developer was chosen?

If it is a 'corporate village', where is there enough room to constitute the location being considered as Downtown, except for the Shamrock development?

But I'm inclined to agree with you on the original point.

IMO, the project would have been better overall if some of the ...
