Commentary:

What a big building the new development at the corner of Mission and Cesar Chavez is and will be. Now that all four floors have been constructed it really seems huge and crowded.  On the other hand, once people start living there I think we will have more of a community.  Perhaps then we will see people walking, shopping and enjoying this corridor, and a hopeful end to urinating, garbage dumping and break ins that are common today.

Taken on Sunday, 10/19/08. New cement was poured during the previous week.  Crews were seen working after hours and weekends to complete the job.  

 

Status as of May 9, 2008

Although there are no new pictures, the one thing to note is that the large Billboard sign is gone.  Also, a lot of you have been asking why has worked stopped.

Thanks to our neighbor John C. here is the answer from the developer: "Everything is moving as scheduled there is a little delay now due to an underground obstruction things should pick back up in a few weeks" (via email, 4/21/08)
