This might have been something else, but last time I saw it 5 days ago all you could see was a hell of a lot of scaffolding. Correct me if I'm wrong though!

Do you know if Habitat bought the ugly plaza on the south side where the site office for this project is located? At the minimum they're building is a tenant, and there are no other tenants there right now. It would be nice to think that the south side could be phase 2!

Its too small for a conventional tower, at ~9,000ft2, but it could see ~4-6s either a conventional habitat midrise form, or even stacked townhomes would be an improvement.

South side is apparently - "RENTED for Site Office" - only.
Landowner is private - and has held it for a long-time.

Thanks for the info. I do hope the owner sells to someone who cares; that site has been terribly neglected for ages. Waste of space as far as I'm concerned, but if it must stay 1-storey commercial in the near term, it should at least get a facelift. Someone should make sure the owners knows their as-of-right permissions now..... just sayin.
