  1. I'm pretty sure its a new Courtyard Marriot. The property used to be part of the Marriot Residence Inn, which was half demolished earlier in the year.
  2. I also passed by the Arabia site today and it doesn't look like much is happening, other than the removal of the palm trees from the parking lot that happened quite a while ago. With three large, relatively new complexes (Domain at Kirby, Braeswood Apartments, and the Alexan Main) within a mile or so of the site, I have to wonder how much more demand there is for upscale apartments in the area. Anyone have any insight into what Archstone is planning?
  3. Looks like Hurricane Ike dropped a tower crane onto the site while we weren't looking. Something is going in, but I'm still not sure what is planned.
  4. Drove by the super block on light rail on friday and it looks like they fenced off a part of the block but not quite the whole thing. If they are going to do anything, they better hurry--the 'Coming Soon' signs are so old and faded you can barely read them any more.
  5. There is a new standard-looking retail strip going in across from Kroger, but no sign of what will be in there. I guess there needs to be some new retail in the area with the new apartments going in where Garden Ridge was. I drive by the Residence Inn on my way to work, so I'll keep an eye out.
  6. Just drove by the Residence Inn at the corner of South Braeswood and South Main and noticed that it was partially reduced to a pile of sticks. Anyone have an idea of what is going in here? It seems like a fairly decent size parcel----if it's going to be another apartment complex, do me a favor and don't tell me.
  7. Looks like yet another Alexan project going up in Houston on the site of the old Surrey House hotel near Main and Kirby. Its too early to tell how its going to look, but anything is an improvement over the hotel that was there before. http://www.alexanmainstreet.com/
