Update: Progress at Project on Fairmount and Uber Sts.

We were in the neighborhood today, and noticed some serious progress at the construction zone at Fairmount and Uber Sts., and also realized that we haven’t said much about this site since the summer. To review, Bill Loonstyn, Jr. of Loonstyn Properties, is in the process of constructing a 25K sqft building with three commercial spaces and twenty-five apartments.

Poured foundations, back in April

Rendering from YCH Architects

We were really impressed by how quickly things seem to be moving along at this large site. Unfortunately, we still don’t have tenant information for the retail spaces, but we’re hoping to learn more real soon. In the meantime, you’ll have to delight in the sight of a building well on its way to completion.

Fairmount Ave view. Looks just like the rendering!
