Nay..."I assume they want a small garage"<br /><br />Nay. They're required to have one by zoning, and I imagine neighbors would oppose any development that didn't have parking.Adam Lhttp://www.twitter.com/AdamLDCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6680796086061090788.post-72972442221113447382014-03-18T04:25:28.083+00:002014-03-18T04:25:28.083+00:00A small building that size shouldn't take near...A small building that size shouldn't take nearly that long as it will be block or frame, not concrete, above the 1st floor. And it shouldn't even need a 12 foot substructure but I assume they want a small garage and are willing to risk the gas removal risks to have one.tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687038451241196980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6680796086061090788.post-74638824509596321012014-03-17T18:47:10.193+00:002014-03-17T18:47:10.193+00:00The CAS Riegler site says the building will have 3...The CAS Riegler site says the building will have 35 units.

Terrible noise heard a block away. 12 feet is a very shallow understructure. <br /><br />Not finding old gas tanks under a former gas station just indicates faulty testing equipment. There will be soil contamination causing a month's or so delay and coal gas pockets are also probably there. <br /><br />We always hear 18 months, (or in this case 14 1/2 months) on these tall buildings with large understructures. In plain English that becomes 2 years. Always. <br /><br />No mention of how tall or how many units. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
