Well what are they doing?
Not sure... didnt pay that much attention.  But there were vehicles and it looks like the site was cleaned up a bit...
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."

Probably helping the current residents pack for relocation.

David Cawton has a couple of pictures of the proposal on his Twitter.

I always thought that spot would be good for a boardwalk amusement park

$36 million???? What type of experience does this developer have in pulling off what's in the renderings? Let's just hope we aren't the circus act.

Arguably the biggest DIA meeting ever tomorrow. Berkman II, Ambassador Hotel and Apartments, plus the residential tower next to the Aetna building is back from the dead, with Aetna's green light, after units were reduced from 300 to 180. Plus a vote on the courthouse convention center proposals and a discussion about courthouse vs. Shipyards. Oh, and it's Aundra Wallace's final meeting.

Wallace picked a doozy to go out on. I won't be in attendance but I'll be looking for updates.

Per the developer, the waterpark would be for hotel guests only, not the general public.

I hope they work out the Ambassador/Southbank deals and really do some sious vetting of the Berkman II group.

A water park and a ferris wheel?

Hmmmm, not sure what to think of this.
