Probably a really good site for a residential highrise. This site is now under contract per hfflp's website. Here's hoping it's a highrise and breaks ground soon https://www.hfflp.com/PropertiesOnMarket/PropertySearchResults.aspx?MSA=Houston,%20TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the Hanover tower under construction and Apache's two towers, there are still two other towers planned for BLVD Place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the 6 sites you mentioned above, there is the proposed BBVA Phase 2 Perenial, and the 50 story tower rumored in front of the Cosmo, as well as Astoria, BHP, and Belfiore are all under construction in the area. A total of 12 new towers in just a few years. Things are going to be so different in 3-4 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud713 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Besides the Hanover tower under construction and Apache's two towers, there are still two other towers planned for BLVD Place.You mean 3 more towers for BLVD Place, in addition to 2 Apaches and Hanover, right? The site plans showed 6 towers last I checked/has shown 6 tower footprints since like 2012/2013 I believe.the plans call for 1,000 residential units, 275 hotel rooms, 1.4 million sq ft of office space, and over 200,000 sq ft of retail.http://www.blvdplace.com/Retail-ProjectPlans.htmhttp://www.blvdplace.com/Location-Facts.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanize713 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 ^ This. Downtown has a grid system. Uptown very much lacks one. Crazy to think what traffic may be like if we dont start looking at it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houstontexasjack Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Well, shucks. I suppose I am part of the Fresh Market's problem. I like their cold sandwiches and cheap, quality coffee. However, I do not do my primary grocery shopping there. Still, the store has the most pleasant aroma when I walk in. I will enjoy it while it lasts.

toxtethogrady Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 So why is this project "probably isn't happening "? Second question is why 4,600 new homes will happen north of Willis, TX, and this won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstontexasjack Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 There's a big shortage of single family inventory. Master planned development can be phased in over many years. There is a lot of highrise MF to be absorbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 This town's developing a reputation for shortage of everything. Today's HBJ stated that 75,000 jobs a year are going to be created for people with high school diplomas who are not planning to get a college degree. That's a lot of demand...

There is a lot of highrise MF to be absorbed. this. there's been a shift in the equity markets away from mf for exactly that reason... a lot of the major players want to see how the market absorbs all these units. granted this obviously doesn't mean that no new mf will be announced or built but i can name several projects that were in the pipeline that are either being delayed or scratched.
