Here is the Coliseum Specific Plan project description:The Coliseum Area Specific Plan ("Coliseum City") seeks to transform the underutilized land around the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum and Arena into a world-class sports, entertainment and science & technology district that boasts a dynamic and active urban setting with retail, entertainment, arts, culture, live and work uses.

It's still pretty cool to see a land acq transform from woods (or whatever) to mass graded and paved to vertical construction.

It's an Excel workbook but it does some nice transformations into a something you can convert into a PDF if you wanted to.  

To do this, you need a bit of experience, money and vision on how you can transform your property.

'Transformations' is the name of the Rustoleum kit sold at Home Depot.Stoning over the fireplace would look nice, but painting the brick would be a budget way to go, although I personally hate painted brick.

Very proud of this 1894 Victorian and the transformation it has gone through.

This is a neighborhood going through a radical transformation, land prices are already almost  3 times what they were two years ago--that nearby property sold for $212,000 in Jan 2014 and closed at $599,000 last month--that seller was happy--works for Fundrise.So i appreciate the observations of folks holding out too long, but I don't think we are there yet.thanksj

Rather the NYC market has been driven more sub-factors like the redevelopment of Battery park and Brooklyn Bridge Park, changes to zoning in Harlem, emergence of C and D areas into prime RE, the tech sector transforming certain parts of the city, etc.

Downtown Raleigh is great and is transforming in a big way right now.

I know some people arent fans of painting brick, but i love the transformation it can give a house.
