Is this a 6-over-1, and thus on its second-to-last floor (one more to go)? Or is this going to be the last floor that’s currently going up? I believe the former, as it should top out just slightly taller than the Link (to the right).

I believe it’s got one more floor to go.

Any idea if we are getting sidewalk improvements with this?

Yes. New development should build wider sidewalks when finished in downtown. Now the city might have to pony up to improve that railroad crossing. :crossed_fingers:

Looks like that parapet wall going up above the 8th (and final) story will give us a sense of the final height of this - and it’s honestly quite imposing! Makes a huge difference adding another story or two to the usual 5-over-1. I dig it.

Just imagine if ten more of these were built in Glenwood South.

Maybe it’d be a push for retail shopping in the area.

It appears the crane has been taken down for the site. I wasn’t able to get a picture as we briefly drove by.

I wonder if the crane I saw yesterday was to take the other one down.

Yeah, West St has really grown into something really unlike any other place in town, maybe the region. One would think that more retail will follow all these apartments.
