From what my buddies father told me about the bid, the buildings were spec’ed around the original height in the original renderings.

I spy a 609 reflection. Loving this one!

The Preston- construction view, this will be a beautiful building when completed.

From a few days ago, it looks like they will be breaking ground soon on the land bridge! New render I also have not seen yet.

It would appear everything is finished now. I am guessing they are waiting for the pandemic to be over? Discovery Green by Marc longoria, on Flickr Discovery Green by Marc longoria, on Flickr Discovery Green by Marc longoria, on Flickr Discovery Green by Marc longoria, on Flickr

I was invited on a tour today. In terms of views, this is my favorite Hanover yet. The 8th floor amenity center was incredible! 360 degree views of our three skylines. Downtown, Medical Center, and Uptown. 2 theater rooms. 8th floor TV and skyline view of Uptown. Bed room looking out at Hanover Square. Sky pool with the Uptown skyline.

About to eclipse 717 Texas from our vantage point! Selfishly hoping we'll still have a partial view of 609 Main...however this and the Preston will soon have a huge impact on the skyline coming in from the west!

No pictures, sorry guys/gals, but the concrete that is closest to 24 hour fitness is currently being busted up and shipped off.

Awesome looking tower.

More signs of life y’all. The elevator shafts are going in!

ASPIRE Post Oak. It was fun photographing this beautiful building under construction.

Nice little reflection of Aris as well.

Some more info and renderings

View from The Driscoll at River Oaks.

i’m going to guess these have been posted before but here’s a nice refresher. Although, I don’t see the volley ball courts in the sports complex rendering.

I still don't trust it - it might just be a parking lot improvement. I won't believe it until I see a banner for 3 months free rent

Steel beams going up on the east side of Westheimer.

Lovett has released more details. The rooftop will be branded as the Skylawn and will feature a 6,000 sq ft outdoor event venue accommodating up to 300 guests. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2020/08/12/lovett-commercial-post-houston-skylawn.html

Hanging multiple steel girders at the same time from the crane is called multiple lift rigging or " Christmas Treeing" . OSHA doesn't allow it except for steel erection. SUMMARY Multiple lift rigging, or “christmas treeing,” is prohibited for construction activities other than steel erection because of the hazards involved, including beams hitting other objects or people. OSHA’s Sub Part R 1926.753 addresses the use multiple lift rigging assemblies, and a 2005 OSHA letter of interpretation provides additional explanation. Because of the necessity for this work practice in steel erection, crew members should understand the dangers and follow best practices. According to the 2005 letter from OSHA, during the multiple lift procedure, the hoisted beams need to be attached to the rigging assembly beginning with the topmost attachment. That means that workers have to be under the already-attached members while continuing the attachment process. Also, the hoisted members are detached from the assembly beginning with the bottom member, so employees are under the remaining members during the unhooking phase of the operation, as described in Volume 66 of the Federal Register, January 18, 2001. OSHA states that the maximum length of a multiple rigging assembly is 35 ft. The minimum vertical spacing between each piece is 7 ft. The maximum number of steel beams allowed to be lifted in a multiple rigging assembly is five. Most steel erectors are familiar with the above rule; however, a general contractor may not allow five pieces to be hoisted at one time. If that’s the case, it’s prudent to increase the vertical spacing between beams, if possible. https://www.seaa.net/news/a-formula-for-safe-christmas-treeing

Two tower cranes for this one.

what on earth does RuPaul have to do with this mess!?

City of Houston wastewater permit posted.

Walked the building today. GFR definitely on the Canal side. Not sure what is going on on the Navigation side. Building is fully topped out now. Two floors of windows installed. Framing for the asthenic elements is being put in.
