Chevron Tower For Downtown At 1600 Louisiana St.
bachanon replied to tangledwoods's topic in Going Up!
My guess is that Chevron saw the cheap oil days coming. Cheap oil means increased downstream opportunities. Chevron builds new refineries to capitalize on cheap oil and gas (temporarily redirecting capital spending). Hence, delay in non-income producing sunk cost projects.- 1,170 replies

I-45 Rebuild (North Houston Highway Improvement Project)
bachanon replied to ToryGattis's topic in Traffic and Transportation
a pierce elevated park would increase real estate values along the perimeter and buildings would connect with it, weaving it into the pedestrian fabric of the city. https://www.bisnow.com/archives/newsletter/new-york/1668-how-the-high-line-has-changed-manhattan-part-1- 3,349 replies

Latitude Med Center: Residential Tower And InterContinental Hotel
bachanon replied to Jax's topic in Texas Medical Center
I'm sorry, but this trend of lego-esque residential is getting old fast. The block of a pedestal parking garage with no continuity of vertical lines and BROWN colors; looks clunky, dated, uninspired. -
Dear Preservationist Friends, a restored MacKie & Kamrath home on 2.56 acres is on the market. TThe owners have restored the home with great sensitivity to the original design and intend to sell to a preservation-minded buyer. They are the second owners and the first owner was Leon Lee himself (architect at Kamrath). It is a once in a lifetime home and very rare (sadly) for Houston. Let's help preserve this beauty by getting the word out to the right kind of buyers. http://search.har.co...ITE71920497.htm

I-45 Rebuild (North Houston Highway Improvement Project)
bachanon replied to ToryGattis's topic in Traffic and Transportation
See Discovery Green and Market Square. ..other developers would scramble to build on the perimeter and attach to it...it would become yet another symbol of the greening of Houston. An example that we do not waste what is still usable.- 3,349 replies
