Proposed Downtown Sioux Falls project

Post by Uffda »

Downtown proposal would transform Wells Fargo block

http://www.argusleader.com/story/news/b ... /28594901/


An estimated $130 million development on Phillip Avenue between Eighth and Ninth streets is one of three proposals being considered by the city for a public-private partnership that would involve a new parking ramp.

But parking is just the start of the plan.

A concept released by the propery's representative shows the block transformed with what might be the most densely developed area in the city.

It combines two new office towers, the existing office building anchored by Wells Fargo, a 20-story hotel, an urban market and multiple residential areas.

Wow this is ambitious, I believe this is the same group that previous articles stated they wanted to build more Class A office space. Also, anyone notice the urban grocer had the same color and font as Trader Joes?

Yes I saw a video where they said they were trying to entice Trader Joe's. I don't think that's going to happen in downtown Sioux Falls as there's not enough population down there.

Considering this is in Sioux Falls, that project is huge; some might say "unrealistically ambitious".

If they pull this off, I'll be impressed. Omaha, as we have recently witnessed, has had a very tough time even starting construction on a project very similar in size and scope.

good for them.
