A Closer Look At 220 Riverside

[edjax]

Per Times Union they are expected to break ground within 60 days or so!  Great news!  Any word or rumors on potential retail?  Hopefully this will also jump start retail in Everbank building also.

Forget Everbank, jump start BROOKLYN!!!!

Average monthly rent $1,200.00 to live in an area where it's  not safe to walk after dark and questionable during the day.  I think the developers should take a hard look at the John Gorrie Condo project on College street and re-think these plans.  It's a vacant failure and this development will be as well.

not safe to walk at night and questionalble during the day. Really? I guess all those people who work at Everbank, Fidelity and BCBS should be fearing for their lives when they have to walk from their car to the building or walking to Johnnys or 2 Doors Down for lunch.

Not safe to walk down Riverside Avenue at night?  The place is deserted at night.  The main danger is crossing the street on foot during the day.

I have a hard time believing that anyone really thinks you can't walk Riverside during the day.

If it's not safe during the day, somebody needs to tell the hundreds of joggers that run down Riverside to watch out.  Seriously, you can't drive down riverside ave between 4 and 7 pm without seeing a dozen people out running.

There are a lot of people and businesses in this town who will potentially take a financial hit if Downtown and the urban core ever truly take off. That is something I try to keep in mind when reading anonymous posts from anonymous posters.

Have you considered why Johnny's and Two Doors Down close after lunch?  Hookers, crackheads and muggers are the only people left in the area north of the Fuller Warren after the office buildings empty out.  Ask a JSO Officer to drive you through the area just to the west of Two Doors Down and you will see the real "Brooklyn".  $1,200.00 a month rent for this area is a fantasy.

Citylife you are so dead on with that comment.

Because, like everyone already said, it's deserted after that?
