Not much being done. There were signs that say two units were sold, however.

The two units have been sold and a number of the other units have been reserved. I don’t remember how many, but I think it was over 50%. The builder is going through bankruptcy, which is what’s causing all the delays.

BTW, I noticed that they’ve removed the fence from the lot on Peace street across from Peace College. Hopefully they’re ready to get started on something new for the Blount St. project.

I don’t know about climbing 3 flights of steps.

These are ugly.

The Blount Street rowhomes are a strong design concept and should be a jewel of downtown. But who’s going to take responsibility for the fact that this “second phase” shown here have had their framework exposed to the elements for more than 6 months?! Only recently did they install the moisture barrier and now the brick wrap.

I have a sneaky feeling that these will be mildew/mold infested units that leave their owners exasperated … say 3-4 years after completion. Not to mention the warped framework causing substandard structural integrity. Not like they were open to the elements for a few weeks … it was 6-8 months at least.

Thanks for your article, I enjoyed it.

I want to know why these people are so bothered by this? It seems that there are more important things in life to worry about.

I think you are all wonderful! I really enjoy these blog sites and hope that the discussion of opinions will continue to help improve our world on an international level.
