    It does seem a large waste of potential green space..I don't get how people who claimed to study urbanism can constantly get the simple things wrong

    sorry man but I think can Houston is dead..they have already fired 75 of their 115 man staff and the rest have had their contact picked up by root...

    like what dude..So far midway has brought a software company and a up scale salad bar...not exactly the fashion or entertainment nexus this place was supposed to be when it was proposed...right now midway seems more concerned with filling space not with what in that space

    Wasn't it like a month between the announced sky House river oaks and. Breaking grown?

    Thought it said similar acre to Discover green but I will also double check

    I Am familiar with the city south section plan from the report if memory serves they identify three areas for another discovery sized park....I would rather it be something different a sculpture garden type or a small botanical..not discovery green 2

    They should not focus so hard on Big Box just yet..Downtown is a weak shopping market...I still believe their best bet right now is to focus on small scale shops and try and line the street with those..example: The shoe store Tipping Point (that use to be on main, Those mobile clothing stores that park outside green street...places like that can build a niche customer base Downtown first...people like urban izzy that sells hard to find vintage clothing( although she partner with the other two mobile clothing owner and now rents a space in city centre.

    Did anyone call the number to inquire about the space?

    You can't kick them out of public places..but it is against cities rules to sleep on public property (That on the city for not enforce the rules. You will have a hundred cops in the day time but it will be a ghost town for cops at night..

    I Agree that residential is a must for downtown, not just for a sense of aliveness but for the music bar scene as well..A bar owner being interviewed by the chronicle a few months back made a great point of saying 70% of most bars and restaurants business are from local business people who live in that neighborhood.. So if the new bars and venues are to survive it will hinge on a larger downtown population..people that can sustain them long after the hispters have found a new hot spot.

    Skyhouse twin towers will be a great addition or even a sky house further down main would work equal as well

    So on one had you say nice hard working and then on another you imply they might do something to your daughter?
  13. Moore713
    It would make more sense to get the tower out of the way before leasing the other part to avoid subject residents to two years of construction

    I like the plans for the east it is a chance for Houston to do something similar to the river walk but on a much larger scale. If Houston want to be taken serious as a international city we will need to think like one.By that I mean we can not continue to neglect our core and expect people to be impressions when they visit Houston.Houston is a great city that suffering outdated views from people who last visit was like a decade ago..

    Do they do residential or could we be looking at a potential office?
  16. Moore713
    I am just hoping it a poor quality rendering
  17. Moore713
    I have always thought that the main street corridor leads itself to a mix of office,residential and entertainment structure.. As for gfr given it location to HCC a decent place to eat for worker/students /and staff could go over big there.

    That is not unusual in Houston..how many projects did not start till months after they were supposed to?
  19. Moore713
    If you look at it nimby have actually lost more battle in Houston than they have won it far less urban areas.
  20. Moore713
    I think the only way you are going to get greyhound to move is to revive the unified transit hub plan..maybe if the proposed Dallas to Houston plans which would give the city something to build around
  21. Moore713
    A tower along main would not look out of places.. Un fact I have always thought main street leaned itself to to highrise towers by virtue of it design .imagine main lined with residential towerss.. Even a mix of residential and office tower s.. The beauty is that if they sit on main they won't interfer with the rest of midtown
  22. Moore713
    That the one..I hope green st is smart enough to buy it just so they can secure space for future expansion if they ever needed it..
  23. Moore713
    I noticed the lot across the street of green st with the stand alone tix booth is for sell ..that prime property
  24. Moore713
    Me thinks with the tax incentives being a proved look for alot of DT property to start opting to sell

    ude you dont have a clue to what you are talking about , lived in what is now midtown between the 80,s and mid 90,s and had to transerve it everyday going to work... That era was can not even be called skid row since it was vacate lots and empty apts... Your talking about the rail made it skid row to someone who remembers the drug infested , waste land it use to be.. makes your whole statement absurb to me.. yea along the line there was no growth( then again along Houston as a whole alot of projects died on the vine thanks to a economic down turn some of those projects even where planned along the line. Many of those projects are just now coming back on line in the last two years
