So who owns "Upper 10th"?  Assuming it's a public ROW, I wonder if future expansions at TSU-AWC would be permitted to have an entrance/exit to a parking garage.

Metro will retain ownership as this is a public street.

I just read on SP , that there maybe some rumors/news as to the AEG development. Does anyone have any information on this? I would think that with a possible 2-3 year buildout , even if they started building now Covid will be passed us by opening.

Just talk around the Ville.

Amazon unveils plans for eye-catching 'Helix' tower at new $2.5B headquarters

 

This up in VA/DC. Wow... Wish we could have gotten something cool like this. Would take this any day over a box.

Weird how there's seemingly no middle ground for them... it's either 'standard mediocre 400ish foot box' or 'groundbreaking one-of-a-kind like something out of a sci-fi movie'

I have a feeling that if we eventually keep growing Amazon’s footprint here (like over the initial 5000), there’s a chance they would build something cool and different here.

That’s what I’m hoping for. Biospheres Part 2 anyone?!

That'll be very interesting...I used to live down the street from that location and it's full of nondescript 80s 10-20 story offices and apartments. Nicely urbanized and very walkable, but architecturally very, uh, Soviet. This will either clash stupendously or stand out in a striking way.

Hopefully we will have some news to share later. We can't say anything yet! I will say it is not bad news.

[MLBrumby]

I hope so. That Channel 5 'report' was a complete bust. No news whatsoever.

If you get enough speed, you may be able to reach Broadway at the intersection.
