  1. Today
  2. So even if it is an EV station like we all assume it will be, what does that mean for Main St 2.0?
  3. Rooms To Go will be headed to this development, per TDLR TDLR TABS - Project Details (texas.gov) It will be on the feeder right along Airport Avenue, based on this layout of the site from November.
  4. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2024/03/28/roseate-beach-galveston-homes-construction-start.html Groundbreaking ceremony for Roseate Beach held on March 26. Same renderings in the article as posted above ^^^ "Construction is expected to start “any day” now on streets and infrastructure for Roseate Beach, a 160-home beachfront community in west Galveston."
  5. If only The Heron was built one block west of its current location (where the Fat Property apartment complex and Texas Pizza are), it could have been called The Heroin.
  6. Which used to be Phil's, a favorite of Marvin Zindler, before it was the 59 Diner. This is good news but does it ever make me feel old. 🙂 I'll have to stop by next time I'm in town so I can say I patronized all three of the restaurants that called this location home.
  7. Additional renderings/plans for the fourth cruise terminal:
  8. Dallas is also the city that destroyed old businesses by deciding to rezone them out of existence without compensation. I expect the drive through to be closed, followed by closure of the entire restaurant and then redevelopment into trendy places that the nearby residents can't afford.
  9. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/3100-Canal-St-Houston-TX/30621482/ "Mixed-use retail and office, adaptive reuse, anchored by Crux Climbing Center (bouldering, yoga, fitness)"
  10. There is another 311 complaint on file for 711 W Gray St. The complaint is for unpermitted work. Based on the plan review inspection report, building plans have not been approved for permitting. https://houston311.powerappsportals.us/en-US/checkcasestatus/casedetail/?id=b4ed2c61-0eed-ee11-904d-001dd80a8b5d
  11. I've been without a car for a year and a half now, and while I'd never consider buying one again, I think it's silly to scold people for using cars in a city that consistently makes cars the easiest option for many tasks. The goal should be to consistently cut into the overall automotive modeshare by making alternatives viable and appealing. If people who used to drive for everything now drive to the grocery store, home depot, and work, but bike to coffee, the bookstore, and school, and walk to the park and the bar, then that's a win. More importantly, though, like another commenter said, this has nothing to do with the 11th street bike lanes.
  12. Once the required permits for 1411 Richmond Ave are filed with the city, maybe we'll know more about the renovations.
  13. I'm not sure if any renovation, construction, or any other kind of work means anything tenant-wise. There could be a number of reasons why there's some kind of work being done on the former dry cleaning building at 1411 Richmond Ave. Whatever work that's taking place is unpermitted. The city recently cited the property owner for unpermitted work. More from the notes below: Construction w/o permits. Structural, re-roof of building. Roof being replaced by contractor. 1st notice. https://houston311.powerappsportals.us/en-US/checkcasestatus/casedetail/?id=c38d707b-37ec-ee11-904d-001dd80b3d80
  14. I suppose the sites of former dry cleaners can be repurposed into anything. I know there are many examples to pull from, but the only one that comes to mind at the moment is Dry Clean Super Center of The Heights. It was located at 1223 W 11th St. Now, it's home to Daddy's Chicken Shack.
  15. The Google Map listing for Haig's Ice House (909 Fisher St) has been up since late summer. Since The Papaian Group has yet to submit building plans to the city, it may be a while until we see any work on the building. A utility administrative application fee (water/waste water application) was purchased last month. I know very little about building and permitting. Maybe that fee means something. I don't know. From what I've observed, a water/waste water application is usually required before buying a plan reviewing fee permit. So, perhaps building plans will be submitted soon. Again, I really don't know. Maybe someone who knows more about this process can chime in.
  16. Hindesky notes 1331 Seamist Dr is no longer listed for sale on CBRE's website. LoopNet; however, seems to be advertising the property: https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1331-Seamist-Dr-Houston-TX/30627710/ At present, there are no records on the county clerk's website indicating a recent sell of the property.
  17. Additional information about the current owner(s) of 1331 Seamist Dr
  18. 1331 Seamist is/was on up for sale. CBRE marketed the property on behalf of the seller. Details from the listing: 1331 Seamist Drive is located in the growing area of Houston Heights. This appealing stretch of Houston is filling with new business and construction. Recent and upcoming residential development makes the Heights a prime location for employee living and new businesses. 1331 Seamist Drive is ideally suited for residential townhomes, multi-family, or retail use. 2.77 acres https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1331-Seamist-Dr-Houston-TX/30627710/ https://www.showcase.com/1331-seamist-dr-houston-tx-77008/30627710/ https://images1.showcase.com/d2/ygkuTv7s_Sjssa-b2Q18YeZSojCoM7pSrgRE2fVWXMY/document.pdf
  19. The 1331 Seamist Dr parcel was acquired in 2016 by Pinto Realty Partners LLC. Pinto Realty Partners is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cockrell Interests. According to county and city records, Pinto Realty Partners received approval for a replat in 2020. The replat was to create an unrestricted reserve. The plat is named Haven at Seamist.
  20. Previously warehouses were situated on the property. HCAD records show the following buildings constructed there: Distribution Warehouse Shell, Industrial 32,400 sf Built in 1960 Warehouse Office Building 5,856 sf Built in 1960 Warehouse Shell, Industrial 7,448 sf Built in 1994 The warehouses were demolished in early 2022. Below are photos of the warehouses on the property prior to demolition in 2022. The photos are from an old LoopNet listing. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1331-Seamist-Dr-Houston-TX/5870450/

  23. Just so there is no confusion, the proposed mixed-use @Urbannizer posted has NOT been confirmed to be at 1331 Seamist Dr. That address was pure speculation on my part. And as a result of that speculation, it seems the topic has diverged into posts about 1331 Seamist Dr. I messaged Arc Three Studio last fall about the proposed mixed-use. In their response, they said it's still on the table. An estimated timeline wasn't provided. I asked if it's located at the address I speculated, they replied it wasn't. When I asked for a specific address, Arc Three Studio said they can't provide it due to their contract with the developer. So, I'm taking them at their word (though some developers and business owners are sometimes dishonest when they don't want to confirm a project.) To clear that up, I created a topic for 1331 Seamist Dr. If the development discussed here turns out to be slated for 1331 Seamist Dr, moderators can always merge the two topics. Until then, here's a separate topic for 1331 Seamist Dr. https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/topic/53408-1331-seamist-dr/
  24. The 120,879-square-foot parcel at 1331 Seamist Dr is located in the Timbergrove area. It sits on approximately 2.77 acres. 1331 Seamist Dr is on the corner of Seamist Dr St and Wynnwood Lane. Across the street is Jaycee Park at 1300 Seamist Dr.
  25. In addition to a structural permit purchased yesterday for 1045 Ashland St, the following permits were also purchased: Certificate of compliance Development review Grading and filling permit Details on the permit: Use: 2,571 sf convert residential to restaurant shell 1-1-5-SH-B '15IBC FCC Group: Non-residential alteration As mentioned throughout this topic, a new restaurant is planned for 1045 Ashland St. 608 W 11th St will be used for parking. Camaraderie is restaurant from chef Shawn Gawle. Certificate of compliance Development review Grading and filling permit
  26. @hindesky if you used the search, you'd see there is a topic for this already. In fact, you've posted about this building on the property in that very topic back in December. The topic is for 608 W 11th St and the adjoining property at 1045 Ashland St, which are both being redeveloped by Re:Vive Development: https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/topic/52465-608-w-11th-st/?do=findComment&comment=689849 https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/topic/52465-608-w-11th-st/?do=findComment&comment=693047 @Urbannizer @Triton please merge this with the ongoing topic for 1045 Ashland St and the adjoining property at 608 W 11th St: https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/topic/52465-608-w-11th-st
