Lots of activity since yesterday.  It looks like the walls on Frederick and Duke Street will come down last.

Apparently it looked cool in the 70s. The disco ball look for a building ...

Found this render of DTK, wasn't sure if it'd been posted.

I hadn't realized there was so much parking in the podium.

The parking podium facing out onto Frederick is the weakest aspect of this project, imo. I wish the exterior were better clad.
