Good news!  I think a lot of people (myself included) are still in believe it when see it mode 

[thelakelander]

I've been in the "believe it" mode, barring an economic collapse. It's been moving through permitting for a few months. You have to spend a little money to advance through permitting and if you're committed to getting that far, you're doing it. At this stage, you start weeding out the pretenders.

[Tacachale]

Good to hear it's moving along. Don't count out that economic collapse, though.

Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election surprised most of the world. But the president-elect is not finished defying expectations. Contrary to the predictions of many experts, stock markets have rallied strongly since his victory, with the three major US indices reaching record highs while the dollar has soared. Explaining these unexpected responses could provide a glimpse of what the next few months have in store for markets.

Voters who supported Hillary Clinton for president, including me, were shocked by the election results on Nov 8. But as we deal emotionally with the surprise, we should follow the lead of the initially jumpy financial markets and shift from doom and gloom to optimism.

Here's why:

1. Both houses of Congress and President-elect Donald Trump will be pro-business.
2. New infrastructure investment will create jobs and fuel growth.
3. Many rules that hurt business growth will vanish.
4. Trump won't do anything to sabotage economic growth.

President Harry Truman had a sign in the Oval Office that read "The buck stops here." On Jan. 20, Trump shifts from outside critic to the most important leader in the world. He will succeed only if he has presidential judgment and understands that his every action and utterance is noticed, magnified and has consequences.

Take his acceptance speech as an example. President-elect Trump's gracious and unifying victory speech in the early-morning hours of Nov. 9 calmed and reversed the worldwide, abrupt fall in stock market prices.

Trump has every opportunity to grow our economy through policies supporting economic growth. The stock market can and will be the real-time measure of his economic success.

I know the leftwing has a bad case of the sadz an ever'thang but we're extremely fortunate the adults are back in charge and feelings no longer drive the political and economic train. If you just take a step back and look at it objectively, ALL OF THIS is extremely good news for Northeast Florida, in general, and Jacksonville in particular, but most especially for the downtown core and our emerging, spread out districts in the core.

Sorry, but Trump's not president of the economy.

Hell, he's not even President of the USA. All of this is meaningless at this point - who knows what's going to happen once he becomes President. Right now, the markets are reacting based on speculation.

[Tacachale]

No president controls the economy, but you can't rule out economic downturns and recessions. The sole reason I mentioned it is because that's literally what happened to the last Publix project. It was not intended to be a comment on Trump. Though it's interesting how Trump fans read the Dear Leader, and insults to his dignity, into everything.

There's a lot of that going around now, sadly. It's not all one-sided, though.

I think one of the surest indicators to the state of the economy is the number of cranes you see and the amount of construction you hear when you're in a city.

[MusicMan]

The last crane in Downtown (North Bank) was alongside the Berkmann II. Correct?

[thelakelander]

^No. The Duval County Courthouse.

Lovely.

[Keith-N-Jax]

Ah the site of construction cranes, why do we love them so?

There was activity there today: local attorneys using it for a parking lot!
