Geez, all of a sudden the ice is gone from the pond next to Coralville City Hall, and immediately the ducks are back. Go figure. JUST took some photos of the 'setup' of the HUGE crane at the corner of 5th street and 12th avenue. This will really be a BIG project. It will be the home the Coralville Center for the Performing Arts. (ala a community theater ish ONLY better!) Kind of 'different' for a town our size to have something like this of this magnitude, but it is under construction as we speak.....I surmise that the corner of 5th street and 12th avenue will be re-engineered at some point. There will be a LOT ( LOT ) of traffic on this corner during construction AND once all owners of the residential condos move in ( prices start over $200K) and of course the commercial/retail/business traffic for the offices, stores etc, AND for the cars/traffic/people who will visit the offices, businesses, performances etc.. Do you get the feeling that people will be parking 'everywhere'....?? I do....I am not convinced that the parking will work, however I just might have a plan to help....maybe....I will offer it when the time comes. My real estate office is just east about 1 block. ..In the HEART of the Coralville Financial District!My next door neighbors include Hills Bank, UI Credit Union, West Bank, Regions Bank, stockbrokers, attorneys, doctors, etc...then there is me!! Maybe someone will 'have to have' my office building.. I hate it when that happens!!..I have NO plans or thoughts to move or sell my office building. I have two great tenants. Miller Chiropractic ( Dr. Ryan Miller) and Iowa Audiology/Hearing Center ( Dr. Jason Aird)...This is a busy little office building in the middle of the 'action'!! .................I will have a new blog up soon.. AN ALL NEW BLOG...Seems I have made the committment to attend a 'once every four year event' in July/August of this summer. What is it?? Keep watching for my new blog, I will let you know!!
