We Just Don't See It

Some form of construction is underway at Wilson Yard. Remember this quote from developer Peter Holsten last summer? We have to wonder where the sign announcing Target could be.

“We asked to put an announcement in the newspaper. It’s bizarre,” Holsten said.

Shiller backed Holsten, who reiterated that his firm did indeed have a contract. “Do you think he’d go forward if Target wasn’t on board?” Shiller asked.

Holsten said that once construction is underway, a rendering of the proposed Target would be posted at the construction site.

“(Target’s) policies on this side are absurd. We’ll put up a rendering and to hell with them,” Holsten said.

  1. But there IS a wonderful, artist's conception
    of the beautiful Wilson Yards....Shiller used the
    art on her re-election mailer.
    Or was that Oz, over the rainbow?
