GL Construction Site Du Jour: 296 N. 7th Street

296 from Street

There’s something special about the wide-open demolition site at 296 N. 7th Street, owing to the particularly nasty and dangerous conditions inside the building that is open to the public. On the other hand, it looks like a really cool place for an edgy late-night party. We found the fence so poorly secured on Sunday that a very large person could squeeze through without even inhaling. The new building itself will be a four-story number from…God, here we go again…Scarano Architects. Regardless, if you’re looking for a spot to hang or to scavange, this is definitely it. Looks like some sort of interesting machine in the back that could look ironic in the loft.
