Imagine how much more attractive it could be if U City mandated less parking and more beauty?
They are ugly square boxes of paper plastic and stick wood

I'm interested to see how the retail space fills up. Adding so many new residents right on this strip is going to be great.

Wrap around the garage came together nicely.
Still wish it had ledges or something around the windows.

Like the density and massing, never loved the design. Still a positive. This is basically what 90% of multi family apt new builds look like anywhere in the country. They at least used some brick facade, I hate the metal cladding in the middle but like I said drive around any city in the US and you will see 100 of them
I think this will be huge for the loop and by effect, the east loop, and by effect the connection between CWE/Loop. That has the chance to be a really solid urban stretch if we can pick back up the momentum that the tornado killed

I went to check out the progress the other night, and my immediate thought was, "what a WHOPPER of a building." The presence on the streetscape is immense. I knew it'd assert itself greatly from the renders, but it punches you in the face when you're up on it.
It has been interesting to see how the Delmar Loop fluctuates like the waves over time... in the 12 years I've been here, there's always been this sort of tug of war going on at the extremities of the street. For a while, the east end was filling in and was the busier side, and the west end was a lot of vacancy and sad, just before covid. Now it seems all the momentum is on the western front. Really is interesting!
It's perhaps our most quintessential 5 over 1 to date. Guess it's good to have a little taste of what I've heard half of Denver and Dallas look like now
On Kingsland, it borders the library to the north. It's currently up to the fifth floor.

Absolutely, I'll take about 5 of these in the East Loop near the Metrolink station.delmar2debaliviere2downtown wrote: ↑3:09 AM - Apr 06Like the density and massing, never loved the design.

yes there is this junk all over the country but this ugly edifice has not one bit of nuance It looks like a replacement for the old stl county administration building

Move-ins start next month. There must be a heck of a garden inside the donut, because they've been hauling plants and trees in for the last few weeks.
This looks better than I expected. I think the townhomes make it more dynamic. Street trees and lights are a nice addition.
