And now it's March 3rd 2008 and work has been shut down for over a month. Funny how things work out.
What's the real story? | 12:22 p.m. May 13, 2008
The true story which no one has written yet is that many have lost a ton of money on this place! Promises were made and not kept. There is always a positive spin about the economy causing a slow down to this magnificent project and all will be well in the end. In reality parts of the idea were great, but never executed. Escrow moneys have disappeared, deposits have disappeared as well as moneys put into improvements on individual units. That's the story no one is telling. Go take a tour through the almost finished tower and look at all the cracks in the walkways and floors. Money that was to be refunded in case of non-performance has simply vanished. There is much more behind the scenes on this one that a good reporter might uncover. I promise you it would be the story of the year and for some odd reason no one is bringing it to light.
