Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community

We last documented the construction of the 220 Park Rd. (i.e. the old Post Office) building last August.  Even with a brutal rainy season, progress continued, and we now have an outline of what the final envelop will be.  As one of my buddies who followed the planning said before the ground-breaking, "people are going to be surprised at how big this will be."  He's right.  Here's the view of the backside–looking down Lorton Ave.  What was once open space with views of the mountains to the west from the restaurant row will now be glass and steel.  The third-floor terrace has taken shape as well, but will be in shadows most of the day.

    Good or bad change is constant and inevitable. Provided the economy does’t tank get ready for more.
