Oh good lord.
Good news about the Apollo Project. Vida, the gym chain, recently announced they were taking a pass on building a gym in the Apollo development because of the "Yoga Tax". Too bad as it would have been a good addition to this project and the neighborhood.
Moose,
Do you really think that a person paying $100 monthly for a membership is going to balk at paying $105? I think Vida has other issues, and it will be a good thing for H Street and the Apollo that Vida is taking a pass.
What will happen to Blair shelter? Is it's redevelopment inevitable?
Blair Shelter won't be redeveloped as part of this project, but I imagine the time at the present location is limited. I don't know who owns the land and building, but they're sitting a large sum of money. If whoever owns it sells, they could move the shelter to another space and expand it to provide services for more people.
Yeah. Who cares if an overpriced gym doesn't come to H Street. The sense of entitlement of the folks lobbying against the yoga tax at the Wilson Building was awful!
That rendering makes no sense. Blair is missing and it make the Appolo seem like it extendfs all the way to I st.
Very disappointed by the Vida news. If you think they are too expensive, you can head to WSC in Cap Hill. Comparing the two chains, Vida is a lot nicer and worth the dough. I hope they can snag a decent gym chain.
Anyone know when the demo will begin?
