Robert Square

[shawnw]

now if only they'd kill that 40mph speed limit. I bet adding a northbound bike lane would help calm traffic....

[riflesforwatie]

40 mph always seemed awfully fast for a 2-lane road in what is technically a residential part of Downtown (The Metropolitan). As the area from NW 6 to NW 10 and from Oklahoma Ave to Broadway Ave develops more we'll see more residents of The Metropolitan trying to walk or bike to new developments. I wonder how difficult it would be to get a signalized intersection or a stop sign with crosswalks at Oklahoma and NW 8?

^^^^ Totally agree with this. 40 mph down Oklahoma always seemed odd to me, but when Metropolitan came along and they didn't slow it down, that was madness. If they'd only do something about the Okla/Harrison/5th junction--which must be the most treacherous in the city--I'd be glad.

Back on topic, I think these residences are a missed opportunity, just like the ones a block further north. With the juggernaut of Metropolitan opposite, and the burgeoning commercial developments towards the railroad, single-family homes don't feel appropriate. I'm not a fan of the children's book illustration styling either.

I'd like to see a real rendering, not just those pictures they provided. They might look better in the context of the property and surrounding area.

Wow, you said exactly what I was thinking but couldn't put into words. To a tee.

Ground work has started on this project.

Does anyone know how to contact the Robert Square folks? I am interested in moving downtown and would like to learn more about this project.

Wow.

[mike1k]

Thanks for the info and Pete, thanks for the contact. I left the builder a message.

[sooner88]

Wow.

She said they also have another development in SoSA called "The Nine", which will be luxury townhomes starting closer to $800m.

He means $800k.

Wasting no time, the elusive multi-unit project whose entire existence isn't predicated on pre-sales. Nice.

[sooner88]

$800mm = $800 million, $800m = $800 thousand

[BoulderSooner]

He means $800k.

i really don't know why 800k is not used any more ...

[Richard at Remax]

I always use a K. don't understand the lowercase m. Just opens the door for mass confusion.

[Martin]

don't understand the lowercase m.

it's because of this:

[Brett]

If "M" is equal to "mm" arithmetically, then would I lose points on a math exam if I used the wrong one in a proof?

[Swake]

These look good, but, why aren't they built as row houses? The 5.5' between buildings is just wasted. Get rid of those gaps and build to the property line and you add 5' of width per unit. In the main living part of each unit that would add 640 sq ft of useful space and you could dump the nearly useless second story apartment over the garages and make the homes cheaper to build/maintain/heat and cool.

[HOT ROD]

that is weird, in business we always use $K or $k, or 000 for thousands, and $M or $m for millions.
