A big chunk of land is being cleared off of Harvey Rd between Copperfield and Boonville. Any clue what's going on? A know a lot of that land is zoned residential but wasn't sure what they are working on.

If I had to guess, it will be more townhomes/apartments. More traffic on the two-lane road.

They finally put a sign up. It's going to be apartments - "Ascend at Harvey" by DHI Communities. Yay, more apartments.

Yay. More multi dweller units. That's exactly what this city needs.

Would this be considered Bryan or College Station?
Spot on. Nobody seems to want new starter homes built nearby in the $200-275K range. Sooooo more apartments it is.RafterAg223 said:
Keep not showing up to vote, or even worse show up and vote for people like Crompton, and housing affordability will continue its current catastrophic trajectory. Young professionals need to live somewhere. Absent affordable starter homes, nicer apartments are the ticket. You people can gripe and moan all you want, but people like Crompton and his ilk at the city are the problem. Not the developers that respond to market forces!!!!!!
Wife and I drove by once and immediately scratched it off the list. I think my wiener dog would flood that back yard after 2 trips to pee.Bucketrunner said:
Starter homes need to be attractive. Those in MidTown CS look like a detention center. Yards too small for a swing set.
Traffic will be a nightmare out of MidTown... Queue castlegate-like congestion again....Average Joe said:Wife and I drove by once and immediately scratched it off the list. I think my wiener dog would flood that back yard after 2 trips to pee.Bucketrunner said:

Went to a city info meeting when Scott & White was in the planning stages. City staff went over impacts, needs, etc., and one suggestion was to widen Rock Prairie from the bypass to Bird Pond Rd. One of the city council members had a fit and called the suggestion a waste of money for a road to nowhere. His suggestion was to let development build up and then see about widening the road.doubledog said:

Sounds like a lack of vision.rsa said:Went to a city info meeting when Scott & White was in the planning stages.

Lack of planning on their part always ends up biting us in the backside.
Somebody should have said, "But think how many trees we could have planted along the bigger roadway."ontheedge said:Sounds like a lack of vision.rsa said:Went to a city info meeting when Scott & White was in the planning stages.
