Title: Project Kodiak
Post by: ralpho37 on May 14, 2020, 09:44:59 AM
Anyone have any idea what company this could be? And am I crazy to get my hopes up that we could actually see some construction downtown?

Doubt you are going to see construction for 80 jobs...

That looks to be either an expansion of the Macquarie office in the Riverplace Tower on the Southbank, or possibly JP Morgan Chase in the Barnett building on the Northbank.

Both companies are moving securities jobs out of NYC and have existing operations here. (Doubtful it is Deutsche Bank).

When the resolution counts a real estate investment of '$1.2 million', that budget is more in line with a fitout of existing office space.
