Makid, I totally agree with you on the tower aspect. What is the latest skuttlebutt on the Hotel? Do you hear anything from your political friends?
I get that this is a Skyscaper forum, and my friend Lee is no more impatient than I am for more towers. I just want some of us to also remind ourselves that Salt Lake and it's metro has been spending billions, even through the recession on a very long list of impressive developments. Salt Lake Metro is by NO means slogging along, but is among the handfull of boomtowns!
Now, how about someone updating us on the latest progress with Downtown's newest signature civic structure, the Public Safety Building. Also, what's going on this week with North America's most significant signature retail development, Downtown's CCC? Anyone been to the world class, signature Rio Tinto lately? A few seem to forget that Salt Lake's CBD is full of signature, monumental buildings, which by the way make most Western city's portfolios pale in comparison. Soon, Downtown Salt Lake City will be adding a signature theatre to it's already long list of magnificant Halls and Performance Auditoriums. Oh, and that brings up, what is happening with Salt Lake's signature A-list Ballet, and the expansion of it's home? Yeah, maybe Salt Lake won't spend 300 million-plus on another tower until it builds the Convention Hotel, but it doesn't seem to have a problem these past few years spending billions on beautiful signature performance halls, auditoriums, high tech campus parks, lavish University schools and museums, five star resort hotels and development, incredibly impressive transportation infrastructure, blah, blah...C'mon.
