A mistake made in the early stages of the Carey project is having an effect on the progress and look of the proposal (from the Ithacating @ Cornell Heights blog):

Update on the Six Mile Creek apartments (from Ithacating blog):

This proposal kinds of surprises me. An article from the Ithaca Journal ref: a new student housing building in a prime location downtown:
http://www.ithacajournal.com/story/n...site/26266005/ The site is the block noted by the yellow triangle in this picture: https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7544/...35efa7ac_b.jpg :D |
Of course there is the reality of the town/gown split. An article on the same project in the post above, from the Ithaca Voice:
Major student apartment project proposed for downtown IthacaThe Ithaca Voice However, if you click on the Facebook link at the bottom of the article and read some of the Townies' comments, definately some venom there. :( |

Some initial renderings of the proposal for the Trebloc site mentioned in post #83. It's a biggie for downtown Ithaca. From the Ithaca Voice:
http://ithacavoice.com/2015/04/11-st...ew-renderings/ Of course the Facebook comments are not favorable to say the least. |
Ithacating blog update. Looks like another downtown biggie is still on the map (Harold's Square). Glad to see some affordable senior housing in the pipeline too:

Since downtown has a lot going on right now, I guess it's time for Collegetown to get started on some of its projects. From the Cornell Daily Sun (though I think they meant to say 5 floors of residential instead of four):

Tompkins Financial Building
Could be a busy summer/fall downtown (now, if Hotel Ithaca and Harold's Square would pick it up)...Compliments of the Ithaca Voice.

^ good add icat.
There's a bit more info (with links) in this Ithacating blog entry, plus more on other projects: https://brancra.wordpress.com/2015/0...nts-or-sprawl/ |
Demo has started on the Novarr-Mackesey property on Dryden. I thought Kraft's Dryden South was going to start first, but there's a pile of rubble at the Linden corner.

^ Thanks for the info Vis.
Here's an article from the Ithaca Voice about the Belle Sherman area homes being sold out. Ithaca needs some 4,000 housing units in the metro area, so it's not surprising that this development in the city was so successful. The big problem is housing affordability. I'll post another article about that. First, Belle Sherman: http://ithacavoice.com/2015/05/new-s...-are-sold-out/ :tup: |
