Current Info:
Wed
Mar 15 2006 - The
Riverpark Place Billboard at The Harbor Entrance is Removed.
The
small billboard that was placed at the Harbor entrance in April of
2005 was removed by persons unknown during the last few weeks. Some
believed this foretold the end of the project. The removal was probably due to
the fact that it had become an embarrassment to advertise
"Construction in Late 2005" and post a phone number and
website that offers no information. Our indications are that
the development plans are still ongoing.
UPDATE
- New information has shed more light on
this incident. It seems Mr. Steve Poe
recently resigned as CEO of Icon Properties LLC to form Poe Companies
and Riverpark Place is listed on their website as a featured
development.
This is curious
as Poe Companies does not have an agreement with Metro to develop
Riverpark Place. Since The Louisville Metro Council authorized the original
Icon agreement and reassignment can only be done by written permission
of WDC AND Metro, we presume the Council must approve
any reassignment.
