It is good to see the continued growth in midtown, as reported in the Bee, and one hopes it eventually spurs the corresponding energy in downtown, though without a new perspective on how to approach K Street—which our new mayor might just have—that could go a-begging.
An excerpt.
“Plans for another multistory condo complex in midtown could soon be moving forward despite continuing hard times in the housing market.
“The project in question is at the southeast corner of 16th and P streets, on land owned by the Capitol Area Development Authority.
“Three developers have responded to the agency's request for proposals on the site – and all will be presenting their ideas at a CADA board meeting Jan. 30.
“A final selection could come March 20, leaving enough time for a particularly quick-moving developer to get permits and financing, demo the existing building there and still begin new construction by early next year.”
