How about another update on this Pincus business? Grocer? Condos? Mixed use? Helipad? Zoo? 24-hour dance party? What's the scoop?

Who owns the site now? I've noticed the parking area has been graffiti-tagged for a while, with no attempts to remove it.

Anyone know what's going on? They've been hauling away dumpsters full of debris from the building for the past week or so... I wouldn't think that's what you would normally do if you were going to demolish the building to put something new up.

They recently changed to a different real estate company. Are there any permits up ?

I just walked around the building and I didn't see any permits. I did take a look inside and it looked like they were just knocking down partition walls.

Thanks for the update, old old city. You always seem to know what's going on in Old City!

So I guess the new real estate company thinks someone will want to use the existing building.... seems like there'd be limited use of a building with such few windows.

I asked one of the workers today and his answer was " I don't know what's going on"
