And all of them appear to have there ASRs approved and are beginning site prep.

The Downtown Raleigh Alliance just released their Q2 2023 market report and there’s currently over 2,000 residential units under construction!

This is what I tell people all the time. Crazy how many units are under development and how many more could be supported.

Sheesh, how slow do they think people walk?

I’m sure that they just picked two ends and let Google calculate it.

The amount of residential density coming online in greater DTR is mind blowing. Hope it keeps up

I think this answers the residential parking question. The residential tower’s amenities deck will be built behind the tower on top of a lager parking deck.

This is how they can build the residential tower before the office tower. Residential parking deck and the officer tower/parking deck complex will be built separately.

Mmmmm, love the combination of poolside hangs and car exhaust from levels of parking below… :crazy_face:

Pools over garages is pretty typical. Frankly I’d rather have them over a garage than over habitable space due to potential leaks.

Or collapse like that condo in Flo-RIDA.

Still doesn’t quite answer it… that amenity deck looks to just be on top of the same parking deck that the office tower will be built on. I don’t think they can build a functional stand-alone deck the size of just the pool area and have efficient ramp to parking ratios, and it would be far more expensive because they’d have to have double the services (elevators, egress stairs, etc.) for two separate decks sitting next to each other vs. one larger one.

My guess is they will just build the entire parking deck (including for future office use) at the same time as the residential tower and add the office tower on top later.

That’d make the most sense. Although that’ll be one MONSTROUS parking deck for what may only end up being the one residential tower (I don’t have any high hopes for the office building, TBH).

Maybe the office building will be swapped out for a second residential building instead if office space continues to flounder :man_shrugging:

For sure. Hopefully they’d just pivot to another residential tower in that case. On the positive side, this would mean that the woonerf and associated retail gets built at the same time as the residential tower.

What happened with that tower in Surfside was not due to the pool being above the garage. It collapsed due to a perfect storm of issues ranging from the corrupt time in which the building was built (around 1980), the disconnect between the construction documents and what was actually built (note the corruption), and the deferment of building maintenance by the HOA against the recommendation of consultants after inspections.
The building was also unfortunately at a pinch point in the barrier island where an inlet most certainly would have been cut by mother nature if not for the seawall on the bay side and the constant replenishment of the actual beach itself. One has to wonder if there was something happening at the foundation of the building that was affected by the sea and man’s attempt to control the otherwise shifting nature of barrier islands.
