Endeavor to Delay Domain Projects
Austin’s Endeavor Real Estate Group LLC has announced that the next phase of the Domian project will be delayed. The means Domainites will have to wait until at least 2012 for the planned Nordstrom, Saks Fifth Avenue and Whole Foods, plus about 490 apartments and about 200,000 square feet of office space. Projects that were already underway, including two hotels and an office building, are still proceeding on schedule and are expected to open in 2009.
This is probably welcome news to Brian Rodgers and the folks at ChangeAustin.org (the spawn of the Stop Domain Subsidies group, which got Proposition 2 on November's ballot). Even though Proposition 2 didn't pass, that group is hoping to continue to push its agenda by being involved in the upcoming mayoral and city council elections.
