Lexington Attorney Mason Miller says investors of the CentrePointe commercial development project say they are making progress. Miller says they have met with construction companies and architects. He responded to a few questions about CenterPointe this week during the Lexington council meeting. Council Member Richard Moloney asked if building a new city hall in the nearby dug out block is still being discussed. “Are we still the main tenant to make this project work for them? Asked Moloney. “We’re the main tenant they would like to see in the project,” said Miller.
A consulting firm, meanwhile, is trying to determine the best future for a government center. Council member Kevin Stinnett asked Miller about the consultants’ study. “Are the consultants just looking at CentrePointe or are they looking at opportunities downtown that private people own and we own? Asked Stinnett. “No, all opportunities, other than CentrePointe,” responded Miller.
The investors in the CentrePointe project have been given a 30 day extension to produce a plan for the high rise commercial development.?
