The first phase of construction for the River District mixed-use development on Nicholson Drive is set to begin early next week. Crews from Block Builders will be out to demolish 11 houses and one townhome. River District will take up about 20 acres between downtown and LSU. The details of River District will be announced by the end of the year, but the mixed-use development is expected to include loft style apartments, retail and office space, says Jason E. Keller of Block Builders. “While details of how this project will ultimately look are still being finalized, we’re pleased that we can begin the necessary work to get the ball rolling,” Keller says.
