Looks pretty decent in that view. Did they drop all the fake Mediterranean stuff?

Honestly, it’s a 5/10 from an urban design perspective, but it’ll be a home run for a certain market of young people that might currently end up in Maplewood or Richmond Heights.

Strikes the balance of authentic neighborhood and new construction.

"Draper & Kramer". Sounds like a wacky TV mash-up.

Water tower park? Just because? Or was there some sort of water tower of prominence here?

Yes, there was a water tower there since at least the 1940s until the early 2000s. Not in the exact spot but maybe a couple hundred feet away. 
here's a street view of the base, it's from 2009

Water Tower Park? Will this be a private park for residents only? Or will this be yet another city park that we have to pay for to maintain?

It looks like it's probably an open grassy area and a dog park for residents.

Hopefully the dog park fees can cover maintenance for the park.

Last time I drove down Hereford was late last summer and one home had been built and it was pretty damn ugly. However, these renderings have revived some hope in the project.

Somewhat on topic since it is neighboring, and I didn't want to start a new thread since it's not my content, but City Scene posted this about new life for the adjacent warehouse on Daggett.

I think this is awesome.  I personally would have loved to see two story rowhomes here but have no idea about the structure of the building.

I'm glad they've found a reuse for the side facing Dagget. 

Would have preferred structured parking to save at least some of the rear portion

Seems like these homes must be selling, I saw a handful under construction last time I drove over Kingshighway.

I say just make it its own thread.  It'll be big enough for people to follow the progress over the coming year.

I think the Bevo apartments already have their own thread? I would put the Daggett project in the general Hill Rehab and Infill thread.
