Wow, each building essentially an island surrounded by parking. Yuck.

Does anyone know the current status of this? I walk past it regularly, and it seems like the stored construction signage and other materials have been slowly disappearing from the site, but I'm not sure if that means anything.

Locked Finance & Commerce article says this is back moving forward and should break ground by Fall.

There was a very recent (like last week) item on the planning commission agenda to approve the sale of the property from the city to the developer, and that usually happens pretty close to the start of construction.

I took these first two photos on Oct. 21st when I was going past. There was signage up for construction workers on the existing site fencing. They're using the address 4440 Snelling Ave S.

This building with the red trim is now demolished. Rail cars parked on the neighboring Minnesota Commercial (ex-Milwaukee Road) yard tracks in the distance:

Walking past again yesterday, I saw a sign on the southeast corner calling the project The Hillock:

And here's a shot through the fence at that same corner, although the view was somewhat obstructed by branches:

Here's a photo from yesterday. The north end of this building is getting to be topped out. I was confused why the near end to the south is mostly stuck at one story, though my brother figures they're waiting until they can move the crane.

Went by this weekend. I like the look of this from Snelling compared to the new apartments on Richfield Parkway.
