Miesian Corners 1681 Report post Posted March 6, 2015 Sure would hate to be in one of the bottom four floors with a view of the parking garage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AirNostrumMAD 2692 Report post Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Well hello beautiful.... Also of note....LOOK AT ALL THAT RETAIL ALONG CHURCH I wonder how well retail will work there.Publix will help. And CCP's goal of increased signage. I'll guess Amelies as a possible candidate I wouldn't mind a garage view if it meant cheaper prices.

I wouldn't mind a garage view if it meant cheaper prices. According to forrent.com, the cheapest unit is $1175 for 546 square feet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atlrvr 4215 Report post Posted March 6, 2015 ^^^^ Looks like a large office tower on the site is dead. There seems to be a small building at Tryon and 10th, though I suspect that's the parking deck for Publix. As long as it has retail on both sides (Tryon and 10th) I guess that's ok.

I took it as that you wouldn't mind living in a unit that looked straight on to the parking garage if you could get the apartment for cheap. No?

No? Ok, that I wouldnt mind. I'd easily pay 850$ for a 1 bedroom looking at a garage for a basic unit with no upgrades. Anything above that even for a nicer view... I'd have to pass (unfortunately haha) Edited March 6, 2015 by AirNostrumMAD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcharlotte 218 Report post Posted March 6, 2015 I wish the parking garage's footprint was smaller and wrapped with apartments. I would be fine with a slightly taller parking garage as long as it was not fronting the main streets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcharlotte 218 Report post Posted March 7, 2015 Disagree - they are also doing very little to try and hide the parking deck from the street. Small design features can go a long way for walkability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niner National 830 Report post Posted March 7, 2015 Disagree - they are also doing very little to try and hide the parking deck from the street. Small design features can go a long way for walkability. I used to live in Silver Spring, MD. They had parking garages in downtown with retail in the base of them. If you look at them from the air like you see in these renderings, they look very much like parking decks. From street level though, you didn't notice.

pgsinger 437 Report post Posted March 7, 2015 Let's just stay happy with the BIG win this block looks like it will be. Even if it is parking deck from ground up with a massive sign saying PARKING DECK, this would still be a net win. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll guess Amelies as a possible candidate I wouldn't mind a garage view if it meant cheaper prices. Retail will be supported primarily by the residents of the towers themselves, but the fact that it also benefits from the existing residential neighborhood and offices nearby will be benefit. Restaurants and bars will finally do well with the baseline support from 1000+ potential residents of the Skyhouses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MazzoMedia 153 Report post Posted March 27, 2015 If you zoom all the way in to the lower right-hand corner of the webcam, you'll notice the temporary trailers have been moved, and there has been some core drilling. To me, this is a good sign (for Publix)! Im ready for this superblock to be fully developed! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miesian Corners 1681 Report post Posted March 27, 2015 I have to wonder why Novare doesn't build one large pool on the top of the parking garage, rather than two tiny pools on the roofs of two towers? Tennis courts at apartment complexes almost never get used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tennis courts at apartment complexes almost never get used. They probably want the highest pools in the city. Edit: Although I just realized that title will still go to the Arlington.
