You've got everything nice and concice, but it will take until 2015 to complete this. The 30-story Cowboy Partners Bldg is a "maybe," the "Utah World Trade Center" is a "lets talk this thing up..." Let's hope Salt Lake gets everything that's being talked about.

It sucks about the 600-foot building, the Zion Social Hall(http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=...akecity-ut-usa), The Eagle Gate Plaza (original plans were 39 stories), The Twin 40-Story Towers (to be built by Kashogi), The American Towers (why didn't they just build ONE BIG 52-story Bldg?). And so on and so forth.

I do love SLC, I just liken it to the Rodney Dangerfield of cities - No Respect!

[Comrade]

Ok, I updated it. A lot has changed since the original one.

[Eigenwelt]

Where's the map?

[Comrade]

As I said in the original post, there is no map. That was from the old project lists and I haven't made one for this updated version.

Anyway, here are construction pics of the HP site:

It's good to see that there's stuff going on in Salt Lake, as far as the skyline growth goes. But I think that much taller buildings need to be built. Buildings taller than 450 ft. Salt Lake isn't all that impressive compared to a lot of well-known cities in the country. And I think that if Salt Lake wants to become the "heart of the Intermountain Empire," we'll need to start impressing people.

We need a mix of quality AND quantity.

Updates East Bench - Misc. - University of Utah

Health Sciences garage, roadway and connector

Construction of a new 1,400-car parking garage and the road realignment on North Medical Drive is underway. The garage, located between the IJ & Jeanné Wagner Jewish Community Center and the Kathryn F. Kirk Center for Comprehensive Cancer Care and Women’s Cancers, will feature a lowered roadway entrance and a pedestrian connector to University Hospital so people on foot can avoid the traffic on North Medical Drive. The road realignment will raise North Medical Drive, allowing for better access into the North Medical Garage and the new parking garage. Additionally, two new roundabouts will be added at the entrance to University Hospital and the entrance to the new parking garage to improve traffic flow.

Hopefully the natural scenery won't be completely obliderated by "urban" development.

....................

The high-traffic corner near Sugar House Park that drew community attention last year over nixed plans for a Kum & Go gas station remains in play for development.

A Malad City, Idaho, company applied in November on behalf of the property’s owner to demolish the former Sizzler restaurant that has stood empty for years on the northwest corner of the park at 2111 S. 1300 East.

Records show the permit is nearing approval. Fencing has gone up around the 0.82-acre property and rigs are poised to help raze the iconic eatery and haul its guts off to the landfill. The empty building has seen incidents of trespassing, according to a real estate agent representing the owner, a family company in Salt Lake City called Romney Farr Properties.


The choice spot by the park just off Interstate 80 is considered one of the more commercially desirable locations in and around Sugar House’s rapidly growing central business district.

The site got re-marketed to other potential developers over the summer after the city planning commission vetoed plans in April for a Kum & Go convenience store and gas station there, citing environmental and traffic concerns. Few recent developments in what’s often dubbed Salt Lake City’s second downtown have drawn that much public opposition, with hundreds of residents weighing in.

The Iowa-based Kum & Go chain has since been bought by the parent company of Maverik, the Salt Lake City-based convenience store chain, but Kum & Go is still obligated to a 20-year lease it signed on the property adjacent to the popular park, according to broker Kip Paul of Cushman & Wakefield.

Maverik is said to have a new developer interested in building a hotel on the property, according to Paul. Attempts to reach officials with FJ Management, Maverik’s parent company, were not immediately successful.

The notion of returning the property to some kind of hospitality use has come up before. Past efforts, though, have hit challenges over a lack of available parking space, getting additional building height approved under the property’s existing zoning and the thorny prospect of obtaining a state-authorized liquor license in proximity to park grounds.

The planning commission’s 9-1 vote to reject Kum & Go’s application for a conditional use permit there also cited potential impacts on the park, air quality and secondary water supplies in nearby Parleys Creek.

Since then, city planners have also drafted a new set of minimum distances that newly built gas stations can be from rivers, streams and other bodies of water, as well as parks and open spaces.

The Sugar House Community Council, meanwhile, has seen several ideas for the property since the gas station was turned down, including the prospect of new apartments, but those options are severely limited, according one key member.

“You can’t build a luxury apartment building if you don’t have parking,” said Judi Short, chair of the council’s land use and zoning committee. Going underground for parking, she noted, is precluded by a nearby earthen dam.

A proposal to preserve the space through a land swap involving property closer to Highland High School fell through, Short said. The city has also sought to purchase the property, without success.

For now, the site’s future after the Sizzler goes remains a question mark.

Downtown Update - The June - Under Construction

Address: 636 South 300 West

The project will be 7 floors (5+2) and have 102 residential units. No retail.

PROJECT SUMMARY:

The June is a residential project located at 624, 636 S 300 W Salt Lake City UT. The existing neighborhood is transitioning quickly from a combination of vacant land, warehouses, and small light commercial buildings to a wide array of singular plot, and multiple plot infill encompassing entire blocks. For example, across the street north is the massive new 'Post District' Development currently wrapping up its phase I construction. The June aims to be a modern and aesthetic boon to the neighborhood that will speak to the other new developments in the area. The building itself aims to improve the existing site. Recently, the development site encompassed a car wash, a dog wash, and a lot of asphalt surface parking.

Pedestrian access to the buildings is along 300 West. Future residents have access to the building via several doors along 300 West. Storefront and glass will line the street including access to stairwells and elevator lobbies, a boutique lobby entrance, and a leasing office.

The new project proposes the construction of a single residential tower on top of a parking structure. It will contain 102 units, including a mix of studio, 1 bed, 2 bed, and luxury penthouse apartments. The covered structural parking provides a near 1:1 parking ratio (102 covered stalls per 102 Units). Although the D-2 zone allows fewer parking stalls (.5:1 ), we desire as much off street parking as possible.

There are 5 levels of wood-framed apartments, and 2 levels of concrete parking. 2 parking levels above grade. The exterior materials are masonry brick, metal siding, stucco, glass, architectural finish concrete, and CMU.

Trash collection and a backup electric generator occur on the interior of the garage and are covered from street view.

Open deck courtyard amenities for the residents are designed to inhabit the top of the PT slab of the parking. For the residents, a street-accessible, ground-level leasing office will be provided as well as a club room and resident work-in spaces (something akin to WeWork) on the podium level.
