Fortune Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I didn't know this was under construction. Isn't this the 29-story circular tower? Yep its under construction. Im not sure what floor they are up to but if you check the BLVD Place topic under Going Up, you can see it in SkylineView's pics. It is 29 stories.

Tumbleweed_Tx Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 it's already taking shape with the flowing curves of the balconies... Soon, it will be visible from the 59/610 interchange! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClutchCity Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Once they finally got going this thing has really gone up fast! Puts the Soverign and even SkyHouse to a lesser extent to shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brijonmang Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Once they finally got going this thing has really gone up fast! Puts the Soverign and even SkyHouse to a lesser extent to shame.It's definitely starting to move now and is outpacing the sovereign but I don't think anything in town will beat out the sky house's pace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayouCityMan Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 So which one do y'all think will look cooler once done (A poll perhaps)? 2929 Weslayan or the new 42 story twisting tower going up in the Museum District? They said there is a rendering floating around out there of that new one so hopefully someone "in the know" will post it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff8201 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Is that view from the Lamar tower? Is the angle that obvious? Hmm, And to think, I figured people wouldn't catch on until I started posting pics of the Richmond and Buffalo Speedway developments, when they start. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineView Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Thanks for all the pics Triton, you are a giant among men... or at the very least a welcome contributor to the forum. /bow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Wow thanks! I think it's just that I really like to bike ride around Houston and it feels like a scenic tour every time I see a new development along my path! Feel free to distribute these images anywhere else. I've noticed my pics on a bunch of other forums and websites... It definitely is a compliment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
