Coordinates: 30°27′03″N 91°11′20″W / 30.4509, -91.1889 RiverPlace Condominiums is a residential tower that is proposed to be built on the Baton Rouge Riverfront and currently in the design phase, but is expected to reach groundbreaking in 2008.[1] If completed before the renovation of the Crescent City Towers in New Orleans is finished, it will be the tallest residential building in the state. The project is headed up by real estate executive Richard Preis.

[edit] Controversy

This condo tower project has been under construction since 2002. Articles exist from 2004, 2005, and 2006 all suggesting that construction is "right around the corner". The lot where RiverPlace was to be developed has been completely empty since 2002. The latest press release of 2008 says that information will be released in two months of February 27, 2008.
