All those people trying to save an old building while war famine and disease ravage the third world. Oh come on, get off of your high horse. There are a lot of bad things going on all over the world all of the time, but that doesn't mean people can't still be concerned about the history of their ci...

I have always actually liked the middle building with the windows and green/teal border. That said I will not be pulling a Specht and trying to save it from destruction, just always thought it could be cool, like a gallery or something.

I also got a pic, from down on 10th and Capitol. There were about three semis lined up on Capitol with more pieces of the crane loaded on them, as well.

It's probably a staffer running Stothert's social media accounts. My guess is that they are simply trying to keep things from turning into a dumpster fire. Is heavy moderation a good thing for a public official's social media page? Maybe not, but constituents may actually go there to find informati...

The mayor, OPA and everyone else involved does not seem to want an open and transparent discussion about this. After posting my concerns on the mayor's Facebook page, I was swiftly blocked. I had a friend that was also blocked after complaining of the mayor's bullying response to her question. It's ...

A friend said he got blocked from the mayors Twitter. After posting this I just asked why we're donating $10 million worth of property (and the revenue from the parking lot they're going to build) to the Holland so HDR, who has almost $2 billion in revenue, can build their HQ where they want. If th...

Its exposed brick walls, creative floor tile and small outdoor area make...

I hope not, there are some cool buildings in there.

In this area, or in general? I would definitely say no for either. There a bunch of buildings up Farnam that I really like that seem ripe for the taking. I know of only one (Hupmobile) that's being renovated now.

Nice, this will fit in along nicely with the Howard District conversions and continue the momentum in this area! Only thing I am hoping, is that some of these places remain relatively affordable.

I was not, I actually don't own a drone hah. I live at Westbrook Tower and this is from the roof

Finishing up the second level and starting on the 3rd. This one's going up real quick!

This one is finally going again. Had been sitting dormant for awhile.

I wish people were more concerned about getting another HQ or large sums of jobs downtown than a grocery store. Sometimes it takes a city having amenities like these in order to attract larger companies to relocate downtown or move into the city. I don't think they are completely unconnected nor do...

Here is one from my building a few nights ago. Since this, they have continued to add walls. Hopefully should be moving up to the second floor soon.

This one has gone vertical!

The Instagram page @eastof72nd (which I would highly recommend following if you are so inclined) posted a picture tonight of the mansion completely demolished
