WOW. The rehab of the existing building looks great! The addition, not so much.
Q. What, what? A. In da butt.

Wouldn't it be nice if they were doing something like this at 10th and Marquette?

It does leaving you wanting more. Exeter has done some nice projects, so I'm a little surprised.WOW. The rehab of the existing building looks great! The addition, not so much.

I agree (that it leaves you wanting more). Especially after reading the PDF which mentions numerous times the importance of maintaining the "rhythm" of the street with similar dimensions for the buildings. Why the setback when they could just fill in the blank space between the C & E lofts with the corner building? Seems like that would honor the rhythm of the street more than the proposed plan.

The latest edition of the Villager indicates that the HPC voted against (5-1) the proposal.

Staff and commissioners were concerned the addition would jeopardize the entire historic district designation and historic structure tax credits available to future projects.
Re: Chittenden and Eastman Lofts & Flats - 2400-10 Universit
OK, Sounds like a solid reason and not just some fly by the seat of your pants objection. Don't want to jeopardize the district for one project.Staff and commissioners were concerned the addition would jeopardize the entire historic district designation and historic structure tax credits available to future projects.
Re: Chittenden and Eastman Lofts & Flats - 2400-10 Universit
The St. Paul City Council overruled the HPC, so this will apparently be going ahead. Cool.

Construction has just started within the last week. Construction fence is up and trailer is onsite.
Re: Chittenden and Eastman Lofts & Flats - 2400-10 University
This new building is easy to miss, since it doesn't back up to University, but upon closer inspection the structure appears to be topped out. From afar, the building is bigger than I expected. That's good news for the Raymond-University area.
Re: Chittenden and Eastman Lofts & Flats - 2400-10 University
Good overview, despite the liberal definition of Raymond Avenue station.

They are advertising 2-3 retail spots on the University side of this building now. Similarly, it was reported a few weeks ago that the Gremlin Theater that was formerly here will be coming back at the Vandalia Tower complex down the road.
Re: Chittenden and Eastman Lofts & Flats - 2400-10 University
That's crazy. I take the green line quite often. I never noticed that there was a building being constructed over there. I love seeing them add additional residential units near the train
