I heard they don't have the money to finish it. I also heard that people have been pulling out left and right.

What is the deal with Ibiza. Isn't it supposed to be built by now?No doubt! And don't get me started on the Jeffrey Place... WTF?? I think the haulting economy has put a stop to most all building projects. Last year constuction workers I know got laid off& now it has trickled up/ down to a few architects I know getting the axe last week. Can't design anything if they aren't building anything I guess.
I would love to see both these projects finished in the not so far future, but I doubt that is the reality :(

Yea, Jeffrey place and Ibiza should be built, but I don't think there is enough interest to get the money to do it. The loans people are getting now to build large projects require a certain occupancy percentage, and apparently neither place has sold enough units. Neighborhood Launch is having no problem getting built.
Though, if Ibiza is anything like that Dakota piece of crap, maybe they should just forget about building at all. I heard that building sucks balls. Leaky windows and roof, thin and crumbling walls...
Why is it that everything those guys do is so bad?

I think that unless ARMS property is off the building, it may not get built.

Jackson On High only has 18 out 46 units under contract according to their website......they are under construction. Ibiza has much more. Someone that I know who lives in the Short North heard that they could not secure enough financing for the project and that people were backing out left and right. Another person on this blog stated that they were waiting for council to approve abatements or something like that.
If this is true, I'm highly dissappointed. I think this project would have sold very well once complete. I mean they already had over half of them spoken for. How long would we have to look at that dirt lot.
I'm not sure what to believe anymore about this project. I do know that several people are still in the Ibiza sales office, the signs are still, the model is still up, the showroom.....so who knows.
Let's see if someone can get to the bottom of this.

Is anyone else suspicious of the several new people who just signed up at exactly the same time, and who are all deeply passionate about railing against Ibiza/ARMS/Union with nothing but hearsay and conjecture, supported only by each other?
...Maybe im just a naturally cautious/suspicious person.

Oh boy, I guess I shouldn't buy there if your friends in Colorado and Utah don't like the name. Seriously? That's your reasoning? That's extremely lame. I don't love the name, but at the end of the day it's just above the door, you don't have to get it tattoo'd on your forehead, it's not lasered into the mirrors of your bathroom, it's not spelled on your cabinets. Must be nice to turn down a potential money making investment or a great condo b/c you don't like the name....or is it that your friends don't like the name? I'd buy if it was called PeeWee's Playhouse as long as I could make some money in the process.

...Maybe im just a naturally cautious/suspicious person.No, I've thought the same thing. There are like 5 posts a week about Ibiza...then 3-4 comments from people within 2 minutes, usually with nothing intelligent to say, just some babbling....often times bashing the name. Very clever folks.
