A Bit of Downtown Chatter

So, the birds are flitting about today.  Major breaking news?  No.  But, for anybody that wanders downtown, it’s pretty relevant.  From what we hear the NE corner of South 11th and Market street – a brick building that could definitely use some love – will be renovated into apartments with retail on the street level.  We’ve also been told to keep an eye on the Ford / Crescent Ballroom property at 13th and Fawcett.  Renovations are set to continue again…  Keep your eyes open and your cameras ready.

Update – One more…

Work is scheduled to begin on the old Labor Ready building at Tacoma Avenue & 13th. The inside upper floor is pretty cool- one gigantic open space. It was originally built as a garage – the old growth timber supports used in the construction are amazing!
