From my office at BG Place. I believe they are adding the 46th floor from where I sit.

It hasn't though...the water didn't reach the parking garage on Memorial Day and I don't think it reached it yesterday. The City let this go through because they built it up so high. Imagine if the old apartments were still there...

I wish the sun had been shining - but that was too much to ask this weekend. None the less, this area is full of life, and the hotel isn't even open yet. Plus the GRB looks fantastic.

Highland Park Village update: - Tory Burch visited Highland Park Village a few days ago, opening her new Tory Sport pop up. Currently two Tory Sport stores have opened: SoHo and NoLIta. - Stella McCartney was also at Highland Park Village this past Tuesday, attending a carnival-themed party for her new collection. - Theory opens their first Texas store April 22.

Too bad it doesn't have more than two wings, would really complete the Vegas look.

Just put a deposit down to move here when it opens. Schedule date of move-ins is October 1, so there's quite a bit more to be done on the site. At the moment, I can't even get a tour because the only working elevators are those on the outer sides of the buildings. I'm pretty stoked though. The full list of amenities is mind boggling to me as someone who has never lived in a high-rise. They're only leasing to early invitees at the moment, but if anyone is interested let me know, and I'll give a referral. Also, I have a few pics of the model unit and some shots the manager took of inside the unit (very unfinished). Not sure whether that's relevant here as I'm new, but I'm happy to post as well.

Crane jump day. Five sections.

Three cranes. Makes me very, very, very happy.

Saw this article in the chron this morning - http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/columnists/sarnoff/article/As-far-as-land-goes-large-tract-near-Medical-7252410.php Does anyone know where to find the marketing materials? I checked out the Cushman & Wakefield website but couldn't locate it. It's not quite as close to TMC3 as Nancy seems to think (I think she's looking at the wrong parking lot), but still relatively close

^^^ the above insight is TOTALLY COOL! props bayouboomtown... well done...

Despite the insane construction time, this turned out pretty nice.

You are right. The bottom level is nothing but a pedistool. Not parking. This is a well designed building.

Promotional marketing agency Jack Nadel International signed a new 5k SF office lease at 2100 Travis St. JLL’s Chad Baker and Matt Sanderson repped the tenant, and Transwestern’s David Baker and Evelyn Ward represented the landlord, Midtown Central Square.

Another pic from Chronicle

Picture I got from the chronicle this morning. This has happened a few times in the past few years already. I know the rain has been once in a decade, but still. I would not want to be facing the risks of the garage flooding when I am paying the rents they are charging.

The land has exchanged hands, high-rise residential projected. The new owner also put just over an acre of the site back on the market. Westcreek-OM.pdf
