I certainly hope so. Of course, I'd rather it be a 30-story highrise doing the blocking, like they originally planned.wabash wrote: Does it look like Phase 1 will block views of the Old Courthouse from right field?
My thoughts too. As much as I'm rooting for Vertical Realty to win the bid for Cupples 7, I can't help but think that, if they can secure the financing to rehab Cupples, maybe instead they could secure the financing for a smart mid-to-high-rise residential/office tower. If it were a this or that, I'd definitely take the "that"!framer wrote:I certainly hope so.

Seems to block part of the Stadium East garage when viewed from the third base side of the park.wabash wrote:Thanks for the great photo update. Does it look like Phase 1 will block views of the Old Courthouse from right field?
