Metro District Condos

[mzweig]

Yeah this condo development gets overlooked because it's not as tall as other developments in the area but it's a nice one. Now Thia did mention that they seemed a bit small to her from the inside. I don't think she hated them but wasn't overly impressed with them either. You know if you wanted to have a large gathering and if you had a condo there you could just have everyone park at the future parking deck across the West Ave. Not sure if that's a big selling point for them. But being able to walk across the street to go see something at the WAC would be nice.

No--I think Thia was talking about Maisson Sequoyah, not these.

[mzweig]

I think it was this development, she had it here in this topic.

[Mith242]

Oops! My bad, Rod. Sorry! Maybe she also said same about Maisson Sequoyah. If not, I will. They are really small units!

Here's a couple more shots of the construction going on. Things seem to have slowed down here, although they're probably working more on the interior after that fire.

^^ this looks great.

Too bad they couldn't have ordered the same brick for Legacy.

Yeah it's one of the reasons I mentioned the brick thing for the Legacy Building. I wonder if it being a taller larger building played any effect on the decision on materials to be used.

[Mith242]

Could've been the price difference between brick and stucco. Also brick takes much longer to build than stucco. There's also more curves on Legacy which is easier with stucco than brick.

[mzweig]

I only see one curve on the Legacy, that one front center. It doesn't look too sharp either. I'd still have to say it had something to do with cost. But who knows, maybe the Barber Group just liked the idea of stucco.

Hi Mith242!

I am new to the site and have enjoyed your photos tremendously. You are very talented. Are you a professional photographer? I would like to buy some of your work.

[Mith242]

Seems like I never hear anything about this development anymore. Maybe because it got behind because of the fire. Also maybe because of a lack of interest in The Legacy. The exterior of this development is finished. Even though you don't get the views like you would from The Legacy, I like the look of this development.

This building has the look that I thought the Legacy was going to have when it was first proposed. If the Legacy did look like this it would probably sell better. This one is set down in a low area but still a great location.

You don't hear anything about this project becasue it has been padlocked. RUMOR has it that EWI Construction(?) pulled all subs off of the job and instructed them to file liens on the property as EWI had not been paid in a while.

Again, RUMOR.

I wonder how close to being done they are? I would like to get a look at the inside and see what they might be priced at. A great location if you don't mind the RR tracks right next door.

our whispers haven't posted to the web yet, but we're reporting that John Nock and Hank Broyles have bought out Brandon Barber and Mitchell Massey in the Spring Street Lofts, renaming the two-building project the Metro District. The four were the original partners on the deal. Nock and Broyles will bring the condos to market in around a month and they plan to recruit Grub's to the Metro Building once Fayetteville decides on a construction schedule for the parking deck behind the WAC at present Grub's location.

[andrewjensen]

Thanks for the info Andrew. This sounds like it is a very good deal for Mitchell and Brandon. I know that they both could use a little financial help and that they need to get rid of some of these almost finished projects. I doubt that wither one are going to be out of the woods yet but at least it is one step closer.

[strmchsr77]

It's a very good deal for both sides. Massey and Barber get out, and Nock and Broyles paid $13.1M for property that appraises for $18.7M.

[andrewjensen]

Wow, it appraised for that much? how many condos are in this complex?
