Was it Stephen LaRose’s intention to use reverse psychology with his Sept. 24 Capital Pointeless post to prod the developers into proceeding with the long-delayed project?
If it was, it may have worked, as CBC is reporting that the developer of the combination hotel/condo project on the corner of Victoria Ave. and Albert St. announced today that construction will begin next week.
Of course, after repeated false-starts on the mammoth project, which includes 144 condo units, along with a high end hotel, and was originally supposed to be completed in 2013, most Reginans are in “believe it when I see it” mode when it comes to Capital Pointe.
So I guess we’ll see what next week brings.
You know me better than that, Greg. The only reverse psychology I want to practice is the process where The Plains gets rebuilt and we forget Capital Pointe ever happened.
It kind of looks like the building from the Hudsucker Proxy. All it needs is a giant clock.
