there is a building on the site that needs to come down first. Hollo is the owner & developer and is known as a very solid one at that.

Good news none the less!

Which means that at some point we are going to get to see another highrise demolition. Those are always fun. The building that sits there now is 19-stories tall. That should make for a nice cloud of dust coming down

Nooo!

I do have two concerns about Tibor: (1) he definataely takes his time ... Opera Tower seems to have taken 6 or 7 years to get built and (2) he hasn't been able to get Villa Magna done.

Sure, this is office/hotel. But we're hearing that Miami may not be able to readily absorb the projects currently u/c, much less a gargantuan project such as OBP.

Looks like it's the waiting game for you, Miami.

Now, if only we could only harness the construction ferocity of
Dubai and apply it to our domestic projects.

It takes 3 years to take down a building? How large is the building they are taking down?

So? It took about 3 months to tear down a 8 story building here in downtown LA. Surely it doesn't take 3 years to do the same.

The developer is very conservative, and is going to allow all current tennant leases to expire, rather than terminate them. Preparing this building to be demolished won't be easy. It is an old building and, I believe, largely concrete. It is also in the middle of downtown surrounded by more buildings.

Way sketchy. Doubtful even. How long did it take to tear down the buildings for Nytt? Like less then a year. Duetch Bank started a bit late but thats a 500 footer it's going down pretty smoothly. What's in the way right now as far as this tower is concerned? How large of a building? How many floors as well?

I don't think that taking it down is the problem. Clearing clients is one issue, but nothing that should take 3 years. The developer has several other projects going on and is known to be slow and deliberate. At this rate, there's no telling what might change in 3 years, but it is a serious proposal.
