Boise Head count

[MJLO]

Ok here we go,

I was wondering how many people in this forum are from Boise. I was also wondering who else payed attention to this subforum. Of all the cities in the west, I think Boise has some of the most potential to grow. All the new developments. All the growth. I think we can make more people interested. Anyway vote in my poll, It will make me have better self esteem. If you're from Boise, tell a little about yourself.

If you're a lurker from Boise who comes on here and reads posts, but hasn't created an account get off your tukus and join the debate! The forum is free for goodness sake.

I am MJLO, I am from Grand Rapids MI. I live in Phoenix and am the moderator for the west. I encourage the Boise forumers to check out the Grand Rapids subforum. It's a city of like size, with alot of good things happening. I think with a little work we can get some traffic like that going around here! Tell me what you guys what in your forum and I'll do whatever I can to help.

thanks Matt.

wow I've got one hit! Is Boise really that under-represented around here?

[Boisefan]

I'm in Nashville, but I like to post in Boise when I can. It's one of my pet cities that I like to keep track of.

[LesBois]

I live in the Boise metro area (Caldwell) and browse this board regularly. I just don't post very often.

[MJLO]

Well come on guys! let's get a postin, the more I learn about Boise the more I like it. I promise to contribute as much as possible.

[MJLO]

lol I didn't mean on the forum. I simply mean it seems like you've lived everywhere.

Boisefan I am here to help. I have been interested in Boise and Idaho for a while. That and I tend to generate conversation because I never get tired of hearing myself talk

[Up-not-out]

I haven't posted for quite some time but am very interested in Boise. I currently live in Scottsdale, AZ but have been making more frequent trips to ID. Next one is 8/21. I am working towards securing some sites for new, infill, residential sites. I'll start checking more often and make some new posts after my next trip.

I'm guilty of not posting more often. It has been very quiet in Boise this summer, so there hasn't been all that much to talk about.

--Still no updates on the soon-to-be redesigned Boise Tower.

--Nothing new with The Aspen. A groundbreaking date has yet to be announced.

--Ditto with The Metropolitan.

--The groundbreaking date for The Jefferson has come and gone, with no dirt being turned.

--The Idaho Independant Bank building (6 floors) is under construction and making good progress.

--The Nine-Sixteen Park proposal (12 story condo) was killed by NIMBY's.

--Saint Alphonsus' new 9 story tower is nearing completion.

--Still much wrangling over where to build a new convention center.

--No public announcement concerning the Capitol Plaza project (see thread in this subforum) has been made.

Maybe one of the other Boise posters has more news concerning these and other projects.
