Re: WaHu Student Housing - 1000 Washington Avenue SE

If they put it on the roof you could see it for miles.
I will sign that petition.

Let's wait to see what materials they use before we make any rash judgments about the design, guys.

Re: 2700 University Ave

I dunno, I thought beige_box's last post on the previous page was beautifully snarkified. I certainly read it as thick sarcasm far more than insult.
Me too.

Re: Nicollet Hotel Block

Just throwing this stat out there because it's interesting to me: Last year there were 1290 condos sold in Minneapolis

0 BR - 27 units
1 BR - 454 units
2 BR - 744 units
3 BR - 59 units
4 BR - 5 units
5 BR - 1 unit

I wish I could compare this to denser cities. Anyway. Carry on.

Re: CPM Cheapo Site proposal - 1300 West Lake St

LOL, Short of minimalism, just about ever architectural style has had an over the top style to it. Deco, Victorian, Nuevo, Can we say post modern, Italianate, all have been far from simple. Many of those are now considered masterpieces, where I'm sure some thought those styles were gaudy and unattr...

Re: CPM Cheapo Site proposal - 1300 West Lake St

Wedgeguy..... that's exactly my point. This is more of a dumb trend. The difference is that this already has a plenty interesting design. There's no need to add all the stupid exterior materials. It just looks tacky. But developers can't help themselves. It drives me nuts.

Re: CPM Cheapo Site proposal - 1300 West Lake St

Here's what I would really like to know. The buildings that I see going up in Chicago all seem to be brick and fit in really well with the historical charm of the neighborhood. Why is it that developers here can only find it in themselves to use cheap cement board? Before I left lime I was laying a...

Re: Roof Depot site

Thoughts: Probably nobody wants to live next to a public works facility, but they have to go somewhere and this location (next to the highway and the existing public works facility and centrally located) seems to make good sense. What about the being right by the Blue Line, Greenway / Sabo Bridge, ...

Re: Roof Depot site

But I can see that if you were on the wrong end of the stick, it might look to you as if the city really was out to get you. But believing it doesn't really make it so. Hanlon's razor and all.
A Hanlon's Razor reference, just when I thought I couldn't love Peter any more than I already do.
