Via sdhomies we see an image of Fahrenheit, the condo? It appears to be located downtown. More information here. Is this related to the Fahrenheit that closed down. Their site is still there.
Hi, I work for Wireless Flash News, the parent company of Fahrenheit magazine. There is no connection between the building and the mag. The publisher did check with a lawyer about trademark infringement but didn’t follow up on it once the editors decided to go on to other projects. Love your blog!

I wonder: if Fahrenheit-the-magazine were still a going concern, would the developers be less likely to “appropriate” the name? I suppose we’ll never know.
Thanks for the kind words David! Thanks for reading!

The condo builders co-opted the name while the magazine was
still going on — and you’ll notice the logo is somewhat similar
to the mag. They had to see the comparison, especially since
the mag was distributed in their neck of the woods.
