Vistaridge doesn't know that MP is dead anymore than you or I. The fact is, the developers are spending $14 million of their own money to clear the utilities off of the site. Until that stops and there is an official announcement, MP is not dead.

And how is voting for Obama going to help? The only change he'll make is to raise taxes so much all we'll have left is change! Politicians don't make or break the economy, the economy does that all by itself. What we need to help the economy is more energy, not more politicians.

And I think a project like Museum Plaza could inject some of that energy Msradell is talking about into at least the local economy. Louisville is due for some skyscraper energy.

Let me guess.....you're a fan of Fox News.

Maybe we could use some of the trillions of dollars spent
on the Iraq War toward infrastructure in the United States.

By the way...Museum Plaza is one of my favorite projects.
It's an exceptional example of thinking outside the envelope.
Good for Kentucky...and GREAT for the wonderful citizens of Louisville.

Yeah, I agree. It's a nice building and a great way of thinking outside the envelope like you said. It seems like intricate designs are "in" right now but this boxy tower shows who has the best design.

Who says it failed?

As people have already mentioned, utilities are still being cleared for the project. It is indeed still alive! Come on... have faith, man :-)

The site is for sale. They can't sell a site in disaray. Improving a site never precludes vertical construction of specific type.

Define Developer - There are no fee developers as of now for MP. Certain conditions must be corrected and obligations fulfilled. Browns selling millions in RE in Oldham County to cover cost.

I swear another building will have to built and occupied before some will let loose of this tale that was never to be.

Give it 6-9 months I suspect you'll see other plans develop. Perhaps not the sexy illusion of a pretty architect rendering that couldn't be built for less than $200/ft. Yet, a practical, stately addition to our riverfront that doesn't require $150 million of your tax dollars.

Now would you like that?

Nothing new yet on this project? Someone said about a month ago that this site was for sale, but I've not heard anything else about it. Does anyone know if it's actually for sale or not and what is going on if anything on the project?

I traveled through Louisville and went out of my way to see the site. They still have Museum Plaza promo posters up on the old buildings that were to be the base but there is no equipment on site.
