Now if they would only do something with the East end of the garage so their Aksarben Village neighbors to the East don't have to look at their ugly garage. I know eventually the S and N sides will be hidden by apartment buildings, etc. but the East end of the garage is basically at the sidewalk so nothing will be built between it and the street.

First shovel of dirt for townhomes on 64th Ave.

Are you sure that is the ground breaking? Looks more like a sprinkler line repair or fiber optics.

Sorry, not a groundbreaking but that is an excavation company which we think is doing some prep work

I saw that today, I thought the were extending a power line from that light so they could put a spot light out to illumine the sign at night. Should have asked.

It is S of the Cue apartments & is on the E side of the garage that is in the Spirit World block. It is across the street from Broadmoor’s original apt. buildings.

I am very curious as to 1) where they will put their construction equipment, materials, etc. 2) how big these will really be as their plans to the Planning Dept showed parallel parking as well as a driving lane between the bldg & the garage and finally, 3) how much they hope to sell them for. I know the plans I saw had dimensions of the bldg but I am a bit size challenged when reading blueprints, etc. I have to see it actually laid out.

I can't imagine they would be less than $280k (Just my wild guess based on previous prices)

If you look at the plans submitted for the condo's, total cost for the project is a tad over $3 million. So, these will be likely be $500k+ like the condos being built near 49th and Dodge on the southside.

TwoPups · Post by **TwoPups** » Mon May 13, 2019 4:31 pm

Starting price is $525k.

We are sort of used to it by now. We have been missing all the HDR construction activity. It is what happens when you’re one of the early residents.

It was Miller Electric putting in wiring for the new signs that will tell you how many parking stalls are available, as I mentioned before, a system they are installing in the 4 Village garages.

I saw them installing the boards today. Are they actual surf boards?

Looks like all the plastic bags that you get at retail places blowing around in the wind.

Seriously, when I first saw the photo I assumed t was something flying off the custrution site.

I thought they were colorful protozoans transplanted onto a photograph of a construction site.

They are leaves.

On a different front, I have heard a large amount of complaints about the new scooters in AV. First, the riders are not adhering to safe driving practices on the streets. They do not stop at stop signs. They weave in and out of areas. They ride on the sidewalk. Second, it's just a matter of time before someone gets seriously injured for not wearing a helmet.

I was at AV yesterday. I actually really like the art installments. It really pops. Also, I think my favorite view of this development is from the kid's playground looking north. It feels really dense from that vantage point.

I wonder what a 60 mph wind gust will do to those "leaves" ?

I met the artist who created these today, and he showed me how they were being attached to the garage and it looks like they are pretty sound. His studio is on 20th & Leavenworth and he said there will be 31 leaves installed.

Surely there is some engineering review required for this "art" ?
