What happened to this project?


This property, at the corner of Hawthorne Blvd. and Rolling Hills Rd., used to be home to a liquor store, a dance studio and a gas station.  It was all torn down a few years ago to make way for a senior assisted living center.  I had been watching its progress each day as I passed it going to and from work.  Suddenly, there was no one working there at all.  Months have passed, so I started getting curious.  I found this on the Daily Breeze web site:

Apparently, the company had financial problems so stopped work on the project.  Now we've got an eyesore. 


I called the number on the sign.  The recording stated that I had reached Sunrise Senior Living in McLean, Virginia.  I could have stayed on the line or pressed 0 for the operator, but the Daily Breeze post told me what I needed to know anyway.
