I think I read in the T-U that this project is being developed by Delores (Mrs. Wayne) Weaver.
That's about as much as I heard on the street - I just hadn't seen anything in writing or heard other bits.

Who is the general contractor on the project (the school)?

A company called Gordon's Castle, LLC.

I wouldn't put it past the weavers to put up some big wall on this place...i don't see them keeping this places continuity with the rest of the area going...walls and gates...its the weavers of course..."they're special"..remember..I just don't see the reason behind such security...it's just going to ostracize the place..that family seems to not have a clue as to what a metro neighborhood needs...unless they take down the fences and let the place come part of the neighborhood of riverside it'll be a travisty for all of us that have to put up with what the wealthy thinks is right for us all...

Seriously??  The Weavers have got to be the most unassuming NFL team owners in the league.  In fact, they were walking home from dinner in front of my home the other night down Herschel st with their to-go box.  If that's not down-to-earth then I don't know what is.  Not sure where you were going with that assertion about their being "special".  I think this development will be nothing but a great thing for this area of Riverside.   Maybe you could upgrade and rent one when they finish renovations.

A huge thank you to the Weavers!!!

Gorrie will be condos, not apartments.  Projected to be for sale in late March, early April.

I went to Gorie and i see it as our city leaders making sure that this school would closed and basically handed over to the public...that school was there for a reason..to teach our children...our city apparently fine with giving our schools away to deveolpers and you guys may also but i see it as just one more school gone from the children....i'll never be able to support such ideas....

Garden,  Gorrie had not operated as a school for many years.  There were not enough children in the area to support it so it had been turned into a supply depot and offices.  No children have been deprived of an education because it is being converted.

The school was not "given away" either.  The Weavers paid full market price for it.

This project is a win all the way around thanks to the Weavers.  You might as well give up trying to stir up negatives about it.
When all else fails hug the dog.

Yeah DW... you are really messing with GG's version of the facts...
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

I know a couple parties that actually got out bid by the Weavers.  They definitely paid right at market rate for the property, if not a little extra.  

Garden Guy, I missed watching Rachel Maddow last night. How was it??  What conservatives are we supposed to hate this morning??

+1, Wayne gets his hair cut at the Great Clips on Margaret, it doesn't get much more down to earth.
