Thought I'd just go ahead and give this area of development it's own topic.  Sounds like there could be some other future projects coming along in this area.  First I'll just start off with a 4 story office building being put in near the Joyce/Old Missouri Rd intersection.  I forgot who mentioned this project to me.  Step forward and take credit whoever it was.   This is being done by Dixie, the same ones doing the Nelson's Crossing Development.

Okay here's some pics of the new Lindsey Building going up and also a few shots of their exisiting building just across the street.  I keep forgetting about the fountain and statue over here.

[DickSonstreetDFW]

I'm loving your pics.  I will be looking at office space on Joyce this Friday.

It's wasn't so dark and cloudy today I wouldn't have taken some pics of all the Bradford Pears blooming along Joyce.  There's quite a few over there.  If you see anyone taking pics over there next weekend it will probably be me.

I love that Statue, it looks beautiful.

I don't really care for the sprawl like developments, but they are mid-rises, which add height to the city. Good developments though.

I guess you are referring to me, I think that I mentioned something about it the other day when we are discussing Nelson's crossing.  There is also a good picture of the Dixie Development office building on the back of CitiScapes, I think that it might be the same as on the sign.  Very nice pictures once again Mith.

I thought it was you but wasn't sure and didn't have time to go back and look.  Thanks for mentioning it.  I wish Dixie had a better website that told more about some of their upcoming developments and such.

Those pics of the fountain really show off some of the landscaping that goes along with some of these big developments. It may seem a little sprawl-like but higher density cities tend to have much less landscaping which to me is much less attractive.

[Mith242]

There really aren't a lot of fountains or statues around the city.  I'd really like to see more.  But I guess I have to give some credit to Lindsey.  Can't say I care for most of their work, like their apartments, but they did do some nice things at the offices.  Although I think their fountain isn't in as great shape as it has been.  But they might be doing something different with their new offices going up across the street.  I wonder if they're also going to keep their old office too or do something different with it.

I don't remember what topic the Bellafonte development info popped up in.  But just thought I'd post a rendering for some  Barber Group developments.  I believe the upper right is a possible look the Bellafonte development could have.  I don't know if it's been made officialy or anything.  But I am pretty sure that rendering represents that development.  I don't know of any other Barber group development that it could relate to offhand.  But anyway just thought I'd post it so people could get a look, it was taken from an ad in Celebrate magazine.

It is the only Bellafont Phase II picture I have seen so far.  I also saw this rendering while watching the Planning Commission meeting last week.  I do believe it passed through the PC so far, but I have not heard when it will be coming through Council.  It is still probably going to be the largest most expensive development to come to Fayetteville.  I believe in the 250-300 million range.

I didn't realize the development was going to be quite that expensive.  I think they said the Divinity project would be $70 Mil.

[Mith242]

Since I was in the area I took a few more pics of the future Lindsey Building.

[mcheiss]

It looks nice, should change East Fayetteville Skyline.

[Mith242]

That won't be much if the Barber Group gets their way with the Bellafont development.  Now that will really define the skyline of that area.  

[mcheiss]

So there's the Bellafont Development, The Legacy Building, and the Divinity Building all in Fayetteville by Barber Group?

Tell me about the Bellafont Development, I haven't heard much about it.

[mcheiss]

So is this development along with the Lindsay Building near the NWA Mall?

[masons_dad1]

The new Lindsey building has some kind of Modern/Roman look to it. Like they blended the glass structure to a great aquaduct... anyway I like it.

[Mith242]

It's not my favorite building, but I guess I do have to say it has an interesting look to it.

Yes, Bellafont is located just East of the Lindsey building, and west of the Post Office.  If it gets done it will be a very nice cluster of mid-rise buildings that will be easily visible from the Interstate.
