Better than what's currently there I guess. And impressive that they're still even interested in making it work given the shit they went through with the last proposal. 209 units on 3.2 acres and 4-5 stories isn't the worst. Definitely agree though that it's a bummer when compared to the original proposal.

If anyone has anymore info...

I drove by during lunch today out of curiosity. Here is the sign:

Tempe is definitely winning the proposal game right now, but it sure would be nice to have some of these actually start construction some time soon.

Don't remember if anyone already post this:

Tempe has given the green light for The Maxwell! This will definitely add some density to the region between Mill and College!

One 18 and one 20 story tower and 295 units between them as well as a restaurant.

Scroll back a little bit. This was discussed quite a bit. Some are upset this is student housing, but I think it's a good win. Students need to be housed somewhere, so why not in towers? Better than the alternative.

May Development Report:

Nothing really new. The "Skyview" proposal on Rural isn't on there yet. The only thing I noticed is that Ehrhardt's Schwinn on University is going to go the way of the former Zia and become a restaurant--a "First Watch." I know there are a few of those around town, but I've never been there.

The big new is that they are pulling a permit for demolition/ construction of University 2.0...and Valor. So it will be nice to see those projects go vertical with Skyview some day becoming the center piece.

Also we should be seeing something about the first phase of the athletics village soon.

True I missed University 2.0. Between that, McClintock Station also doing demo and in review for a building permit, and Broadstone Lakeside also in review for a building permit, that should keep the action going.

Also notable, May 24, 2016 DRC meeting should be a doozy. The Standard, The Foundry, and "Eastline Village"--the big apartment complex proposed for the land near the Smith/Martin lightrail stop--are all going up.

0.4 acres at college ave and 6th st. Current location is jacks tix and paradise hawaiian bbq. No specific development plans identified.

Thanks. That Hawaiian place is terrible. Great redevelopment opportunity.

I've always thought about eating there but never got around to it--good to know I needn't bother.

Here is the developer:

http://www.macdevcorp.com/projects/

Seem to do pretty good work. The only thing they have in Arizona is they own One Lexington in Midtown.

Good work, I agree. They don't own One Lexington, they are condos, which seems to be their thing, with some commercial. It would be great to see a mixed-use with condos rather than apartments.

If you want to read the business journal for free, view the source of the article and find in page for "content__segment" and that will highlight where the actual text starts behind the paywall.

Nice, thanks! I didn't know that.

I like it. Granted, I like it after a day of drinking and watching ASU football. The mixed plate is good for that purpose. Plus I like getting a quick beer there from the beer tubs before or at halftime of a game. I'll miss the place.

Fencing went up today at Broadstone Lakeside.

Once those crybabies settle on a Crescent Rio solution, there will be a nice stretch of residential on 1st St.

And with the Dog & Pony Brewery on the west side of Crescent, yeah, it should be a nice stretch.

The Hayden Flour Mill redevelopment appears to still have some life.

At the May 12 City Council meeting, the council will hold the first public hearing to authorize entering a development agreement that appears to now finally have been successfully negotiated to redevelop the Mill and surrounding area.

Here is the Agenda, item 6B2:

Here is the site plan:

Really hope they can get this done, it would be awesome.

If they don't get it done this time someone ought to nuke that tacky eyesore.

Is it just me, or is this different than the original plans? The layout seems different to me. I am trying to find the YouTube fly-through, but am not having luck.
