In the past couple of years, the Graduate Hospital neighborhood has seen a new wave of high-end development projects consisting of several town homes being built all at once, with prices exceeding $600K per house. Some, but not all of these developers, have used land formerly occupied by churches to

It's been two and a half years, but it looks like it's finally going to happen. We last checked in on the Honey's Sit 'n Eat 21st & South location about ten months ago, and from the outside, little has changed.

Back in April, groundbreaking took place for a new Home2 Suites by Hilton on the corner of 12th & Arch. This corner had been a parking lot for many years, and we were excited last year when we first heard about this plan.

A reader checked in the other day and gave

Last spring, we told you about plans for a nice new building on a long-vacant lot on the northeast corner of 19th & Fairmount. We hadn't seen any progress at the site in the half a year since. That is, until the other day.

Back in November, we gave you the good news that Spring Arts Point, developer Lawrence Rust's large residential development centered around 10th & Mount Vernon, was restarting construction after taking a few years between building phases. We were back in the area the other day, and snapped a couple of
