I know of a local start-up that is considering moving from shared work space to a building near Cafe Reconcile. They like the cheap rent and want to be a part of the area's improvement.

The corridor is still a few years away from tipping, but I'm convinced it will tip at some point.

Agree that it is close to tipping though I will say the one thing they will have to work harder to deal with is the fact that the universities arent right next door which means there wont be as much an obvious demographic to go after and 2. the corridor is substantially larger than Freret. But I think proximity to downtown can really help as well as the streetcar coming down the end of it.

Hadnt seen this rendering of Algiers Crossing before:



Also here are renderings of the Juvenile Justice Center:
