The weather is turning nicer, but for several urban development projects, the winter didn’t stop visible progress from being made.

Some multistory projects are starting to stretch into the sky, while ones involving adaptive reuse are transforming older buildings into new uses.

With the crux of the construction season now in front of these projects, many are likely to be even more transformed by the time the weather turns cold again.

Charlotte-based LendingTree (NASDAQ: TREE) could move its headquarters to another Mecklenburg County town.

The online lender was previously anticipated to move to SouthPark as part of a $47 million local expansion. LendingTree closed on its acquisition of two multi-tenant office properties, 2100 Rexford Road and 2115 Rexford Road, in December 2016 and planned to renovate those buildings for its headquarters.

The Northwest is filled with Craftsman-style homes built of natural materials like wood, river rock and stone – hundreds of them in our area.

But the waterfront mansion belonging to Dr. David Chang and his wife, Dr. Pilin Chang, has taken Craftsman to a whole new level.

He is a founder and principal of Bellevue Spine Specialist; she is a retired pediatrician.

Their imposing Bellevue estate, with its 110 feet of west-facing waterfront, is listed for $8.989 million. Brokers Tere Foster and Moya…

This Colorado town may be tiny – it’s just one square mile and has about 900 residents – but it's got a friendly, rural feel that is one of many reasons why the residents who move there tend to stay put.

Bow Mar is about 12 miles southwest of Denver and consists of single-family homes on acre-lots, a private lake — and lots of open space (and the views that come with it) in between.

Many of Bow Mar's residents are second- or third-generation families (95 percent of whom own their homes)…
