Eden Heights - Whats next?

There was not much news that I had to share so I didn't update the site but thanks all for the updates and comments. The one thing I can tell you is that groups and forums like this are more popular than ever (many end users are creating/joining such forums to muster strength to wear this real estate storm). So here is some update

1. As promised I tried contacting Sandeep Gupta on phone but couldnt get to him but will talk to him as soon as I am able to and provide some more details to all of you

2. I did speak with Manish and there was nothing new I heard i.e
>> work on basement raft is goingon
>> project is as per schedule
>> 2.5 years from now will be the possession
>> the land around GPL which was owned by Unitech is now bought over by Tata housing
>> if someone decides to move out 20% of BSP is retained by GPL.

3. Some other aspects
>> the good news is that the home loans are more affordable now (9% compared to 13%)
>> the other thing we all may be thinking is how all of the eco meltdown impacts the GPL project and what it'd mean for us as end users
== would there be more construction around sector 70?
== is the project viable for gpl
== would GPL compromise on the quality due to increased cost
== the property prices are expected to fall further (does it make sense to stay invested in a sector 70 if you get a ready to move in apartment in the more developed sector in gurgaon)

obviously, these are tough times for the economy, for each of us. Lets stay close and monitor the progress of eden heights closely. Thanks for keeping it active and for all the comments and emaisl you guys have sent.
