Reminds me a bit of the ritzy parts of DC. Really a fantastic part of the city.

Right, so there wasn't any announcement, and BP Group definitely handled the demolition of a lot of the old mill and tower, you can see their IG page for videos of the demolition. But it does seem like they handed this project off to Capano.
Also, there are new big townhouses under construction right near here as well.

Honestly-- the whole thing is a bit shady. First, the Mills mysteriously caught on fire, and unruly teens were blamed, then there was an investigation--nothing came of it, then some time passed, then BP Group started demo, and now Capano is building something. Seems a little fishy...but you're right, the area is absolutely beautiful, and affluent.
Here's some more info: BP Group definitely owned the land until recently...
