  1. Why would The Ion and Greentown Labs have a single leadership team? Aren't they two separate entities that are tenants of The Ion District? What do most early-stage companies need that The Ion does not deliver?
  2. What a blow to the ground floor retail enthusiast. The closure of such a high-profile well-known store. I'm sure this will affect other chain store's thoughts on expansion in the midtown area. What is going on with midtown. First 24-hour Fitness, then CVS, now Whole Foods.
  3. With all the available open land and one-story buildings in the area I would hate for them to demolish those three towers. Just seems like it would be going backwards. Develop all the undeveloped and underdeveloped properties first.
  4. Given the location of the piece of land (the backside of a Kroger grocery store) a cookie cutter hotel as you call it is a win.
  5. Did not stop the office space at Montrose Collective, MKT Heights, East River, or Discovery West.
  6. Pretty sure they meant master planned community and left out planned . . . However, that is just an assumption based on the context clues.
  7. Sounds like this may not be moving forward. 367 acres is a big chunk of the 500+ acres that was planned to be the bioport. "Backed out" does not sound like a term that would be used if the seller and TMC/co-developer could not agree on terms. Sounds more like the TMC and co-developer have changed their minds in regard to the development itself.
  8. I think that is done more so for branding/advertising for the firm marketing the property.
  9. The title says 2 office towers. Are there 2 building going up here?
  10. I'm curious to see how this development will be modeled off of The Battery in Atlanta and Ballpark Village in St Louis. Those developments seem like they had more space to work with.
  11. No way that is accurate you can barely build a single-family home for $499,999.00 now a days.
  12. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/housing/article/third-ward-cuney-homes-hha-eminent-domain-17813213.php Key Points: -Houston Housing Authority to purchase or use eminent domain to acquire 45 properties in Third Ward, including both empty lots and occupied homes. -Will include both affordable housing and market-rate units. -Reimagining, revisioning of what Cuney Homes is. -Replacing all 550 current units and adding an additional 550 units. -Rentals and homeownership opportunities. -Properties being acquired for expansion are concentrated on St. Charles, Tuam, Drew and Dennis streets and Emancipation Avenue. -A significant portion of the properties were owned by the Midtown Redevelopment Authority -Homes replacing Cuney Homes will be a mix of single-family housing and low-rise multifamily apartments, all built to today's standards and likely reusing some of the original bricks in order to preserve part of the community's architectural identity. -Estimated construction on the actual Cuney Homes site will begin in 2025
  13. This portion of Uptown is very unattractive including The Mark, 3525 Sage Condominiums, and The Bristol which are very dated looking buildings. However, have property values really declined in the area?
  14. I'm glad they removed that horrible wooden fence that was up between this property and Target.
  15. WOW a gas station . . . I wonder how the people that were complaining about the medical office building feel about this turn of events.
  16. What are they going to do with the olde baseball field?
  17. What are they doing on the corner of the stadium at Crawford St and Congress St? Construction has been ongoing for the last month or so.
  18. Is this the Mcdonalds with the no dine-in option?
