They should rename these two buildings to "hodge & podge"

Walked by the other night and there's a bunch of new windows being stored in the new "fishman's" building in the foreground there so it looks like they might actually be utilizing this deadspace more again.

Something about the way the patios/pillars on the outside just looks so off to me visually.

can every conversion be like this? keep it simple, minimal changes, and no weird colour palettes.

exactly my thoughts too, I mean for the love of god, can they please develop this parcel already: https://maps.app.goo.gl/p2hK7g4CFuTVKHtH7

If I could make just one change, it would be to make the balconies one neutral colour. The alternating colours make my OCD go crazy and it gives it a very pre-school aesthetic. However, it will be good to have another surface lot disappear.

I'm holding out hope that they will do whatever the did to 1905 College cause that had the same concern initially and then they fixed so fingers crossed this isn't the final stage.

I'm pretty sure they're permanent. Also during my run yesterday, I saw the skyride posts are down, are they relocating the route of it or something?

but look how spacious those sidewalks are now! I'll no longer have to shimmy by people while walking my dog. :P

100% agree, those auto repair places on 17th drive me nuts. I do hope that one day, the Superior auto sign gets repurposed for something cool though.

Walked 17th over the weekend and saw window decals up for their space. It's looks to be going into the last CRU to the west in the best buy building. Looking forward to it.

I wonder what will go in there or if Barry's will take over the whole space.

Holy moly, my bad, I totally read that wrong. I blame Friday brain and stampede chaos. ;)

I agree, I don't find the renderings of what they're proposing to be all that groundbreaking tbh but it's an improvement from what exists there today. I hope that they don't cave and allow for the car access as I think this should be one of the few pedestrian-only streets in the city. I also...

Agreed! I always find it strange that we have no hotels on 17th
