Re: East End / Thresher Square / Trader Joes - 713 Washington Ave S

Also missed that there is a second restaurant opening in the building as well, and looks like its seperate from the Hotel's restaurant (Umbra). That would explain the interior build out that is still going on at the corner of 3rd and Park. Sherman Associates also has a lease signed for a Denver-base...

Re: East End / Thresher Square / Trader Joes - 713 Washington Ave S

The Canopy Hotel is really starting to pickup speed. All exterior work looks to have wrapped and I'm able to see what look like "model" rooms that have been completed (for photography? I'm guessing) from our apartment at East End. Walked by the entrance on 3rd St and grabbed some photos of...

As of this morning the concrete is all down. They have now moved onto slowly cutting down the metal segments and stairwells with a welding torch.

New bar/restaurant concept moving into the ground floor of one of the new Wells Fargo towers. The "Restaurant Space For Lease" sign is down and there is now a coming soon sign! Although, still don't see how this opens its doors in 2018 (per their website and the article), considering the ...

Re: Lyndy - (2905 Harriet Ave S)

I went for a tour here recently, the building is nearly completely leased up. I think they had less than 10 units available. Their rooftop (and the skyline view) is pretty incredible.

So weird that there's not a speck of Trader Joe's signage yet, or even a "Coming Soon" sign in the window.
As of last night there are now two large "Trader Joe's Coming Soon" banners hanging across the windows facing Washington Ave.

35th & Blaisdell is my block and near my front yard. I've been living near the intersection for 5 years now and the change to traffic patterns on the street has been overblown. Blaisdell Ave has always been congested during rush hour, and while immediately after the restriping/lane removal traff...
