    And...maybe...it would be a waste of money to destroy it...and build something different...but...it's so FUUUUGLY... Yeah, it ain't going anywhere. Whatevs. Also, if it spurs development on downtown's east side, that's good too. Yeah. Way to go, you ugly, ugly building. You do have a purpose. Bless your heart.

    And I would gleefully help you.

    Those pictures are nice. Even a turd like like GRB will sparkle with enough glitter on it (that would be the park).

    I can't wait to see this thing in person.

    I like the initial look of palm trees, but I think the pedestrian environment would be better served by oaks that provide more shade. I think the use of live oaks and other native trees would be more "authentic" anyway. It might be cheaper to go with palms in the short-term, but in the long run, the more shade you've got, the better. How unique a downtown area replete with new development and live oaks with Spanish moss hanging from their branches would be.

    Ah. How nice. I remember when they were finishing it up while I was in college. I always enjoyed seeing it as I tried not to die while driving on 59. Probably it's in my top 20 fav Houston buildings. Great picture of it, by the way.

    Yeah, it is nice. "[w]onderful staff"? Do you live there?

    IMHO, these are the best pictures of the park so far. I like how you got pictures from different areas of the park. Sugoi!

    Is that Mies' Seagram Building?

    It looks to me like the love child of the Royalton http://www.houstonarchitecture.info/Buildi..._River_Oaks.php and Wells Fargo Plaza.

    Always snappin' shots, even without a camera. Awesome. Actually I think your cell takes better pictures than my crappy H-P digicam. In the left background, that would be Mosaic, right?

    I'm so glad it's finally going up! I've been going crazy over here worrying about the project stalling. Let's be honest, this is one of the coolest-looking new buildings going up in Houston, if not the coolest. Man, what a relief! I've been waiting since 2005 to see some significant progress made on this. Aw, it's gonna look so sweet when it's done. AWESOME!!!!!!

    I really wish those boneheads in the legislature would wake up and get over their little crushes on UT and A&M. It's ludicrous for a state with over 22 million people to limit itself to only two flagship universities. Reason #348 the legislature SUCKS.

    Comedian Lewis Black referred to that as the "end of the universe".

    No pessimism was intended. I'm quite pleased with the new prez and share your optimism. Go Coogs! Especially what you said about Tier 1 Status--WORD.
