  1. Of interest to residents, especially the ones on surrounding streets, may be the extension of the time to dispose of the land could lengthen the time the construction will take place. "The outside closing date for the phase 2 parcels will therefore be no later than 2021." That means vertical construction could start after that. Completion date unknown. That's a long time to live with construction.
