Check out the striking Daniel Libeskind design for
a new condo complex. Where do you think this one is going up? New York? Miami? Chicago? No, this project is coming to
Sacramento, California's capital, an area not known for radical design. BCN Development is planning the 38 story tower
which is conveniently located near the state Capitol building. The modern condos feature Bulthaup kitchens with Miele
applicances. Amenities include a pool and hot tub with a lounging area, a roof garden, massage and steam rooms, a gym,
concierge and climate-controlled wine and cigar lockers. The building will have 258 condos and prices will range
between $400,000 and $1.5 million.

Former Sacramento Kings basketball star Chris Webber is out of the restaurant business at least for the time being. The Sacramento Bee reports on the closure of Center Court With C-Webb, the sports restaurant he opened in the area three years ago. The restaurant closed today but a phone message on the restaurant's line says that there may be a new location in the future. No one is sure why the restaurant suddenly closed and whether or not the economy played a factor. Last month, Sacramento police arrested a man in connection with a fatal gang-related shooting outside the restaurant. The restaurant served sandwiches, steak and a variety of burgers including the "Fab 5," a burger with 44 ounces of choice Angus beef which sold for $29.50.
