Yet, Im still skeptical. I will believe if they starting build republic bridge across HWY 65.

I doubt we will see any ground or road work for 1-2 years. Who knows though, maybe they will get a developer that wants to get it done. We hust have to wait and see.

Zoning: Passed Annexation: Passed

Well I watched the 10 O' clock news and the development has been rezoned to highway commercial and multifamily. The search for a developer will no be full steam ahead. Can't wait to see all of the other problems this development has along the way! lol

Hey thanks for the pics zman. I like the last one with Sunvilla and One Park Place Condos, great angle. I guess you made a trip up here to watch the Naturals play at Hammons Field? Thanks for the photos!

BTW if you ever come up again, you should do it when the first friday art walk is going on... some great galleries downtown.

Yeah, I read about the First Friday Art Walk- sounds like a great event. I will have to make time for that next time I'm in town.

Here's a closeup of the Juanita K. Hammons Hall for the Performing Arts on the MSU campus. Great location for this - right on campus and close to downtown.

Well the new sams club is open for business and has been packed every day since. My sister went there yesterday and said it was a madhouse. I'm just glad I wont ever use that sam's... I always go to the sunshine/65 location.

Here's a few downtown photos from a trip to Springfield. The first is the Hammons Tower at 22 stories and on a high spot. It really dominates the skyline and is set away from the historic downtown area as are most of the newer buildings downtown. This is what you see when you walk out the main entrance of Hammons Field.

These are two historic structures on Walnut Street immediately off of the new downtown area- very beautiful buildings.

These are some more of the newer tall buidldings downtown - right to left the Hammons Building (not to be confused with the Hammons Tower and all the other things named Hammons in Springfield- ) Park Place condos and Sunvilla Tower on the Missouri State University campus.

Street mural in the older part of downtown- a funky place with lots of history and potential. There have been some notable improvements in that area but there's a lot more that could be done.

The Shoppes at James River

You beat me to it. I'm gonna go ahead and make this its own topic since a large enough development. I noticed the article about this in the Springfield Business Journal. I don't think the Houlihan's will be 70,000 sqf. thats the size of the entire lot it sits on. That would be bigger than the Circuit City store.

I found this pdf file that has the layout of the site, but I don't know how to copy the photo and paste it on here from adobe.

Here it is: http://www.loopnet.com/Attachments/6/A/7/6...2021166957C.pdf

I found an old sketch plan for Shoppes at James River, it was created last year ago. The Hilton Hotel should be on east side.

I know there somewhere post have already talk about Republic & Glenstone Development. I thought I would give update about it.

The Shoppes at James River

South of Republic and Glenstone

14.5-acres

Hilton Garden Inn: 140,000-square-foot, five-story... the location will be on east of side.

Springfield's second Houlihan's restaurant: 70,000-square-foot building... the location will be on west of side.

I'm trying to find information about other possible retails and rendering pictures too.

Also, they say will start construction in next four months both for hotel and Houlihan's.

Ok, well thats good... maybe they can breath some new life into the project. That Interchange has awesome frontage to 65, and very high traffic counts. I almost sure it will just be commercial buildings; offices, retail, etc. I'm sure they'll make a good buck off it.

The Meck Lofts

I thought the same thing but judging by the road I would say somewhere off Walnut. I was thinking it would go in between the funeral home(ughh!) and the Jefferson lofts right there off walnut, I don't know though. I just hope it doesn't fade away, because I really like the design.

Springfield Transportation

slyder1 — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:14:38 +0000

^Yeah I saw that as well. They moved it up to September from November I think. They said it will be done in the fall of 2010. That should be the same time that the two flyover ramps open up at 60/65 interchange, although the entire interchange wont be done until 2012! Yikes! Just glad to hear 65 is finally getting widened after all the talk.

No not yet... there still hasen't been any details. I'm sure they will wait until the credit market gets a little bit better.

Dang.... I'm still puzzled how it can fit that area somewhere. Downtown areas are pretty tighter together.

I think one of us posted this a while back. When I read this thread I thought it said Casino! LOL Crazy right? I think this had been on hold for a little bit, but there is ground work being done.

Yeah, but this is new Realtor company just brought that land last few months ago. It should be good signs, last Realtor weren't that good.

Bass Pro Hotel

slyder1 — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 18:13:59 +0000

Thanks for posting this. Yet another project from Johnny. I have a feeling he announced this to calm the tempers about the Wonders of Wildlife expansion delay, and seems like it's working. I don't know if I would consider this a "landmark hotel" but just a really nice hotel. They said it would be 4 stars so we'll see. I always thought that they should build a hotel off Sunshine where those ugly old buildings are just west of Bass Pro. They could put in more rooms and maybe an indoor water park! Now that would be awesome. Maybe I'll write em'. LOL

BTW... They are saying the expansion of WOW will put the museum on par with those in Chicago, New York, Phili... Pretty cool.

Don't depend on this one... I heard alot of folks opposed of this idea due to require build republic road across mobiles area then to across 65 Hwy. Also they doesn't want to increase traffics too. They're just all d*mn old folks.

I wouldn't say that... These people in the mobile home park will be paid off. Their land is worth a lot of money and I'm sure it will come up in the meetings. Even if the road can't go through this mobile home park then the other option is the hilly terrian next to it, but they don't want to do that if they don't have to.

This development is basically a done deal with the city. Why do think they have run all these articles in the news-leader saying "Development Enevitable at 60/65" "Tax Dollars for Springfield." Trust me it will get built.
