These are very complex structures. They do not start and one end and hope it all comes together when they get to the other end. As I mentioned above, I'm guessing the issues are all surrounding costs at this point. They don't want to publish renderings that later cause people to say "Hey! This is not what we were shown/promised!" That doesn't mean they cannot start some of the infrastructure and site clearing activities this coming Spring. I believe all the design work and pricing is done and funding is complete. What is left is the community benefits part. In other words, PSE getting all this public funding, what are they gunna give back to the community. As we all know, that is much more about what projects go into which politicians neighborhood and which donor to said politician gets his slice.

Draconator Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 I figured out where they were. Whey they said they would break ground in the spring of 2023, they were talking in Dog Years!

It’s however hard for me to believe that if the design is in fact done that they could keep it hidden from the public. Immediately after the architectural firm creates the initial concept sketches and renderings they need to distribute them out to a large number of consultant firms, so the technical design work can begin. I’ve got to hand it to them if their Code of Silence is that wide and iron clad…..but who knows. 1

PrimeTime101 Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 what are the betting odds that we see actual renderings by page 100?
