  1. Does anyone know what will happen to the current building(s)?
  2. Noticed the beautiful blue lighting from 45! It really adds something special to the downtown skyline. Market Square Tower picks up the reflection of the building. I'm loving it. Drove down to see it in person and I'm amazed. Love the transformation of DTHTX these past 10 years.
  3. I'm sooo glad to hear that they've picked up those additional parcels! Now if we can get rid of that Pacesetter and that Jack In The Box we'll be in business! Glad to see this area changing a bit.
  4. Brass Tap is opening in MidMain. It'll be on the corner of Holman and Travis right across the street from Holman Draft Hall. This is creating another walkable mix of drinkeries on this side of midtown. https://www.brasstapbeerbar.com/Houston

  6. This!!! I need THIS! Up and down every street it Montrose, heights and midtown!!!
  7. Just realized they fenced the entire sears block as well. The actually building along with the parking lot. Can't remember if the lot across from it (between the shipleys and the rail station) was ever fenced, but it is now. Drove to the store last night and it was amazing! It's really making the area feel better. I only saw a handful of homeless.
  8. Fences are up around the block that the auto shop was on as well as the large parking lot that sits between Fiesta and Sears. Don't know if that means anything but it's deterring the homeless from sleeping there...but they'll find a way back, I'm sure.
  9. What's being built right by the smoothie king off the corner of Westheimer and Montrose? It about two stories. Steel framed. Across from Uchi. Been searching the forum for it but can't find it. Merge if topic exists already.
  10. The fence is up around this lot. It's been up for a few days.
  11. Wow!!! I literally rode my bike past this one a few hours ago and was about to ask if anyone knew what this was going to be. There's a bunch of toilets and debris that looks like it was removed from the building. Great location across the street from MidMain and MATCH! Wow, Midtown is becoming the beer garden Mecca of Houston! (Axelrad, under the radar, woosters, beer market company, this one!)
  12. I love living in midtown. I'm torn between wanting the GFR or high rises. I love the fact that I can (and I do) walk/bike to a grocery store, bar, restaurant. My circle of friends are from car-dependent cities and I love when they're surprised when I tell them we're walking to a bar. My only complaint is the sketchiness that's still up and down midtown.
  13. The Sears Auto Shop is closing. May 26 is the last day they'll be open. 50% off what's left in the store. Spoke with one of the guys that worked there, Carl (perfect definition of great customer service, btw) and he said they might do something on the lot the auto shop is on and the big empty parking lot between fiesta and the sears. Sears own that empty lot and the auto shop and Rice owns the Sears building. VERY interested in what's to come with this development!

  15. I agree with ALL of the comments about closing down the Fiesta and Sears. I live a block away from both. I only go south of Cleburne unless I'm riding my bike to Hermann Park.
  16. Don't know if any noticed but there is a beautiful Welcome To Midtown sign (concrete marker) when you exit Louisiana from the 59 Spur. I meant to take a pic.
  17. It was good. A little overhyped, but it was waaaay better than in and out.
  18. I know most of y'all think the MC skyline is tacky, but I love the consistency and visibility of their skyline. I would love if Uptown was the skyline with the blue lights.
  19. Excuse my inner fan boy, but this building is going to look AMAZING! I don't mean to be dramatic, but I got chills when I was driving down 610 looking at it! This will definitely stand out! I'm loving how that side of 610 is getting built out! Interested to see what's going to go on tha empty grassy lot not too far from hotel Derek off the freeway. fyi, that sun's reflection on this building will be magical!
