I agree, what's the point of telling someone "If there were news, we'd be talking about it."?

I had the same thought when I read his post but thought better of being rude to the guy. You're a moderator, shouldn't you be held to a higher standard?

I wasn't trying to be rude, sorry if it came off that way.

I didn't take it as rude but see how it could, maybe a lil after might have made his point better.

You're fine, you didn't do anything wrong.

Don't worry too much about me, anyways, I give people lots of chances.

Combusean .....

The big bad mean moderator (Sarcasm) > yo what happened to the emoji section (edit).

Nah but for real guys, we’re not hearing anything anytime until this pandemic thing goes away. A couple of my buddies in construction say that this upcoming cycle is very stagnant & contractors are starting to scramble for a work.

Interesting proposal to redevelop and expand the existing vacant office building on the NW corner of McDowell/12th Street into a hotel:

Hope this happens. I’ve always found it strange to not have a hotel in closer proximity to Good Sam - Downtown hotels aren’t necessarily the same price point of people needing extended stays near a hospital

Agreed. I'm interested to see how this stretch of McDowell (7th St to 51) will look like in the future. Lots of exciting and proposed changes!

Seems to be active. Looks like they paid the $88K for the foundation and site utility plan review. There is also other activity posted as recently as last week.

Haven't heard much about it lately, but the 2nd phase of Union at Roosevelt appears to be on track as well.

Thanks for the update glad to hear there's movement on the project.

Does anyone have any information on Portrait at Hance Parks PHASE 3? Any website or article link I can have? I'm curious to know when the building is supposedly going to be completed.

I know those are usually general estimates, but it will still help me.

Looks like that Midtown Office Tower is still moving.

Hopefully they can pin down a California tenant and start construction. It will be nice for Central and Thomas to not be fronted with a dirt lot anymore.

https://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/...nix-tower.html

Quote:

After getting final approval from the city of Phoenix’s Board of Adjustment to relocate the billboards on his midtown property, Jim Pederson is getting ready to start marketing the mixed-use development to prospective tenants.

“We are going to try to identify a major user, we want this to be a special project, it’s a special location,” Pederson, founder of Pederson Group Inc., said.

Depending on the user, the project, located at Central Avenue and Thomas Road, could either be developed as office or apartments, and retail uses will be on the ground floor, he said.

Pederson said he expects the marketing process to take between six and nine months, and construction will begin when the tenants are secured

“We want to have the right kind of tenant mix here,” he said.

Pederson has owned the land since 2002 and has been waiting for the right time to develop it. Pederson, the former chairman of the Arizona Democratic Party, also owns the adjacent building at 2910 North Central Ave. that housed the Democratic Party headquarters, which was destroyed in a fire by an accused arsonist earlier this summer.

While Pederson said the building is now “uninhabitable,” it will not be included in the development of the new tower, and the party will have to relocate its headquarters.

“There is plenty of room to do a high-quality development here,” Pederson said of the 1.75-acre site. “We want this to be an example of what can happen on this part of Central.”

Pederson said midtown has always taken a backseat to downtown, but the redevelopment of Park Central Mall and other nearby developments like his could elevate the area.

“Midtown needed a focal point,” he said. “This is a very important intersection and we hope we can contribute to that.”

Pretty cool drone video of downtown and midtown and you can see current projects under construction. Cranes for daaaays!
