A big part of the underpinning for the project was supposedly federal money for railroad improvements. That program was about to expire, but Landmark got it extended just for them.

Of course, COVID means there's now other free money out there—but probably much more uncertain demand for any condos and certainly for any retail other than a sports bar.
