A dream? Or is it the light at the end of the tunnel...

Can you see it!? Look closer. It's there. With all that's going on in the world it's good to know that some of our developers have continued on through a very long, winding, bumpy, (previously) unpaved road.

If you don't know what we're referring to yet, check out the OTC Blog from February, 2019 here.

Check it out. We'll wait...

Just to recap, there has been a project under construction at the corner of Chestnut and Magnolia (soon to be 239 West Chestnut Avenue) for a 10-unit industrial condominium complex.

However, maybe it wasn't a road; maybe it was one massively long tunnel! Yes. We can see it. The glimmer in the eye that imagines what's on the other side. You visualize the 'concept' of what could be at the end.



So you enter the tunnel, with the dreamscape in mind. However, it is not your ordinary tunnel, it's more like an ACME tunnel. The project has been one long, continuously stretched tunnel. Think of Roger Rabbit taking the tunnel and stretching it for 12 years!!! Can you imagine a 12-year long tunnel!!!??? Whew! That is quite the journey! And when the light breaks, and finally steps out, you see the dream in its reality! Doesn't it look good! It's great when the final product looks like the concept! We love it when that happens.



Thankfully, most projects don't take this long to come to fruition and we're pleased that we can all see the light at the end of this tunnel.

While the developers have a few final items to finish, we're out of the tunnel with the end in sight. We expect they will be calling for a final inspection of the completed building in the very near future! Hooray!

If you are looking to lease one of these brand new industrial condos within this new development, please contact Filippo Fanara at Filippo@cibare.com.

And just like our developer we too have a light at the end of this long tunnel! It goes to show that perseverance wins the day. So on your next stroll, be sure to walk by and check it out... and don't forget to look down, you might find some inspiration in the sidewalk... a couple of poems embedded in the sidewalk. Read more about 'Footnotes' here.

So stay well and stay safe, dear readers; and please continue to come back to this blog during these times for some information and light-heartedness. Even as we face some challenges ahead, it is good to know that there's still a lot of great things going on in Monrovia and we're committed to keep you posted through more of these posts in the coming weeks.
