I live and work in the neighborhood... would love to see this built but my mind is blown by whos behind it
If they are talking with property management companies, it is probably likely. Every company has to start somewhere. They could be wealthy individuals or children of wealthy individuals looking to break into the real estate game. Or, as Cro said, they could have sold the land, development plans and Planning Commission approvals to another developer. Or they could be partnered with a credible developer. Either way, don't be so quick to dismiss this.
