A former auto repair shop at 2487 W. 25th south of the West 25th Street Bridge has been already demolished. Construction workers are starting to excavate the site for an underground two-level garage, according to Adam Friedberg, a principal at Mavrek Development of Chicago.
Look for the first of 171 units at TREO to be available in fall 2022, Friedberg said in a phone interview.

The bar seating change came via an amended executive order signed Wednesday afternoon by Gov. Ralph Northam and allows restaurants to use their bar seating with 6 feet of distance between partiesâand 6 feet between bar seats and other seating, such as bar-area tables.

In a year of social distancing, forget ringing in the new year at a crowded bar at the stroke of midnight.
Dancing at a packed club is also off the table this New Yearâs Eve. Or doing shots at a bar. Or even standing closer than 6 feet to a stranger without a mask on indoors.
This is New Yearâs Eve in a pandemic. And things are looking pretty different at Richmond restaurants and bars.
Seated dinners, temperature checks and wearing masks will be the new normal this New Yearâs Eve.
