I realize building with wood is cheaper, as a building consultant I am aware of all of its challenges & drawbacks however. As an office we are staying away from mid-rise wood construction until the bugs have been sorted out so to speak. As an owner of one of the townhomes in this development I am surprised that they have increased the height of the second building, that probably explains the lack of work on it compared to the first. I guess this should be a positive in creating more density and hopefully supporting a lively "central park" area with what I am hoping to include decent commercial uses.
