Construction on the roadways/infrastructure should begin in the next month or so. Besides Topgolf, the first projects will be the office project and associated park on parcel 2A. The first residential project should be across the newly extended Euterpe St. and will be workforce and affordable housing. The team indicated that they had applied for state funding and should know by June whether they have the necessary grants/tax assistance.
The full meeting presentation should be uploaded to their website soon. I am glad to see this move forward.

Also glad to see it moving forward now. While acknowledging the concerns some people have had about this project, ultimately converting completely empty lots into
something, and at the same time being able to restore an urban street grid and add some housing is a net positive in my book.
And that rendering is indeed gorgeous. I'm so glad they're not just building boxes and calling it a day.
