  1. Is it really hard to believe that investors would choose to build near public transportation? If you need any proof on how transit helps spur development, go to NYC or London. Those cities exploded with growth due to public transit. It's not a hard concept to grasp, so idk why critics continue to try their best to pull numbers out of their ass to prove a point that's been proven in cities across the world.
  2. $35!? Lol I'll wait for the park to officially open
  3. That image above This image of GreenStreet imo is really nice. Has a very urban feel.
  4. What I'm starting to see is an incredible shift in the quality of life in this city. It's overall becoming more aesthetically appealing at every level in every neighborhood. Houston just needed some serious TLC. So what's awesome is all these neighborhoods are densifying and becoming more settled and unique. Each neighborhood is developing it's own character and expectation, and that's what was really missing in this city for a VERY long time. So these lights are added charm and individuality to this Post Midtown area.
  5. I'm not a fan of the front side parking. I with they could have incorporated parking underground and made the HEB fully open to pedestrians much how they're doing the Midtown Whole Foods.
  6. Ahh ok I figured it might be Lamar. That's awesome the city made a solid connection like this. Really like the direction Houston is going.
  7. These changes are awesome! I have to hand it to the city on this one. It makes me even more excited for the changes on West Alabama.
  8. This picture does NOT look like Houston! I love it! Now let's fill up those 2 parking lots near that parking garage lol
  9. Do you have any documents or images you can post?
  10. This was really smart by Skanska to get a head start on this while they waited on a tenant.
  11. Damn... Do we really need zoning in this city?
  12. John Culbertson is a complete moron. I fully understand representing your constituents, but he mainly represents himself and his pockets. It amazes me how he "struck a deal" with Metro to have commuter rail to Mo City yet he couldn't help Metro find a new route for the University Line. Yeah if you don't want rail in your neighborhood that's one thing, but to make sure no more rail projects are part of our transportation plan is the Republican thing to do. What a jerk for a lack of waaay better words. I did see some work beginning on West Alabama today. Getting a walkable connection to Upper Kirby from Midtown/Montrose is going to be great.
  13. Well from what I understand, Houston voted YES on a pay as you go system. While it's great to prevent additional debt, it slows down progress. I feel like I'll be dead by the time this city get's all the pieces in place lol
  14. I get all the studies and meetings but damn we have to wait till 2020 for them to start construction on this? And West Alabama hasn't even started yet. What I don't get is when we have a massive event (Super Bowl) somehow the money finds a way to fix an issue quickly.
  15. Nooooo way... while the humidity can be downright exhausting here in Houston... the heat in North Texas literally stings and hurts
  16. I'm actually excited that all the street repaving and new sidewalks for that general area are happening at the same time as this. Those streets were falling apart.
