KLCC s Brian Bull reports on how the 5th Street expansion project has been faring in spite of some of 2020 s hurdles, including the pandemic and the wildfires.
Casey Barrett is executive vice president of Obie Companies, which has been spearheading the development. He says about a fourth of the Gordon Loft units are already leased, with the Gordon Hotel opening its guest rooms ahead of the Valentines Day weekend.
