THRIVENT BLOCKS -- 7/26/18
Three separate projects starting construction here. The half block on the right will be occupied by a 7-story apartment building wrapping around a parking ramp, which will also have retail and a small amount of office space. The northern half of the block on the left will be occupied by a new 8-story office building (Thrivent's new HQ) and will also include retail. The southern half of the block on the left will be occupied by a 12-story apartment building and a 10-story hotel, which will be connected by a 2-story building with a large fitness center and daycare (some have speculated YMCA/YWCA).
As the block on the left is torn up this week, only one full-block surface lot remains downtown, a huge decrease from just a few years ago.
