“[S]ustained construction progress has not occurred, at least since March 2022. Comparing today’s photos with those from YIMBY’s March 12, 2022 post shows no progress whatsoever. The only ‘construction’ that has occurred is graffiti (including on windows), abundant trash and a for-sale sign.
Unfortunately, Craig is correct! Hope someone buys it and carries on.
