I'm wondering if it's due to the parking deck ventilation/openness calculations....

OM had to demolish the foundations for Streets of Buckhead to create their "Buckhead" project- they completely redesigned the project.

Avalon had to demolish the foundations of Prospect Park- they completely redesigned the project.

I'm guessing there's a billboard easement that can't be revoked? Looks as good as possible if that's the case.

If we go back to your first comment which prompted my response:

but there have been plenty of projects that have stalled even after construction started on foundations.

It makes sense to note the Proton Therapy Center: A. Because it was 70% complete when the developer went bankrupt and was charged with fraud (and) B. The project would still be a shell if Invest Atlanta did provide a $400 Million line of mezzanine funding.

With that said, the developer could provide enough Equity funding w/o pre-sales to meet a Lender's debt funding requirements.

Which violates the developers #1 rule-- use other peoples money.
In any case-- I have been in Atlanta a long time and the only time buildings have been stopped once construction began were during the 2007-2009 recession (a depression in the building industry). The Proton center was also a special case since the whole deal fell into question after the operator's bankruptcy.

I'm really not sure about Opus-- they seem to be pushing dirt around-- when they actually start foundations (an expensive proposition for a 50 story building) and go vertical for at least the first floor, I'll believe it.

shivtim,

Realistically will it be 6+ months before they can begin construction at this phase?

TransportationCamp South returns to Atlanta on Saturday, February 24th, 2018!

I saw this on Twitter and thought some of you might want to attend.

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/transpo...on-39424015291

TransportationCamp is an “unconference” – where sessions are proposed and led by attendees – bringing together thinkers and doers in the fields of transportation and technology for a day of learning, debating, connecting, and creating. Created by OpenPlans in 2011, TransportationCamp has since been held in 20 cities worldwide. This will be the fifth TransportationCamp South in Atlanta, seeking to bring together participants from across the Southeast region. For coverage of past year's events, see the writeup in Creative Loafing ("TransportationCamp South a Wonk's Heaven") and the photo gallery on Facebook.
