All parties involved with this better pray that there isn't an earthquake like the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake anytime in the near future.

Great find ^! I like how the proposed projects are over the 4 story status quo we've been seeing over the last few years (with a couple of exceptions). I'm cautiously all for them, but I can't help to be a bit worried about this trend though. Usually when we see the projects getting bigger and...

A lot goin' on! Thanks Corey!

It looks like Burlington might take that next step https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/sites/default/files/Agendas/SupportingDocuments/2016_05_09_Preliminary%20Sketch%20Review%20Set_1.pdf https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/CEDO/BTV-Mall-Redevelopment-Process

The article was a good read. I hope it all goes through. I know from a friend of mine that financed the recent project on Maine wharf that building in this area can be a real headache due to all of the rules and regulations. I wish em' luck. A bit belated, thanks again for the updates Corey!

Besides here in the forum, is any of this stuff posted anywhere?

Fingers are crossed ^! Anyone got pics of 665 Congress going up? I've been busy as heck over here in Sanford.

Thanks for the heads up Strangehat.

Thanks for the update! It's nice to see these projects moving right along.

I don't get much time to get into Portland, so thank you for the update cneal!

I like this proposal better than the last one that was proposed for this site (the picture is in this forum someplace).

Ask and ye shall receive: Public hearing on the 22nd, second topic. 169 Newbury Street. http://me-portland.civicplus.com/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Item/3411?fileID=13598

Thank you for the update Corey. It seems like they are wasting no time putting these buildings (especially 667 Congress) up in this white hot market. I also found another proposed development when I was checking out the Portland Planning board site - a 7 story building near Marginal Way. Let the...

Those are some pretty cool pics! Thank you Patrick!

Ah yes, the 80's. If the economy didn't spudder out like it did from 87 to 92, we would have seen a lot of those proposals above today.

Wasn't there a 5 or 6 story building proposed for this site a few years ago? Funny how the height measurement is taken from the uphill side of the building (56 feet with parapet). I see this all the time when figuring out the highest part of the building when I'm uploading data to Emporis for...

Sounds like there is a lot going on around town. I haven't read or heard about Midtown in a long time. Thanks for the update cneal! How is 667 Congress Street progressing?

For those of you who live out of town or who haven't read the PPH in a while - Joe's Smoke shop is torn down to make way for the 8 floor apartment building mentioned in earlier posts. The article is in the December 29th, 2015 edition of the Press Herald.

Emporis finally updated the building height to 685' from 606'

So how tall is this? 312'?
