  1. It's self explanatory. Right under 59 a block or two from this building is a hangout for a lot of crackheads. Have you ever been over there? Go to Ninfas for lunch and tell me what you see on the way.
  2. Still an awful lot of crackheads hanging around that part of town right near 59. I wouldn't want to live right there.
  3. I'm more hopeful for capital tower so that one rises out of the ground
  4. I drive by this complex from time to time. It's a very nice complex. The common areas along Eldridge look nice.
  5. This is all fine and well, but if you don't have easy transport from airports to your convention area and easy transport to your high end shopping district (Galleria/Uptiwn) your city will get passed over. Because Houston doesn't have those things in the same location, you need to get conventioneers to them easily
  6. Why does everyone have the right to live downtown? What's wrong with a all the affordable housing surrounding downtown? Does a 10 or 15 minute bus ride really put people out?
  7. Ever been to Chicago? There's large "urban" developments outside of the Loop. Large growing cities have the ability to support multiple centers.
  8. Welcome to Houston. Seems to be more violent every day
  9. Haven't you heard, Houston already is bankrupt. Mayor Parker told us so when she took office. I'm sure Campo is a smart guy, and knows the real estate development business well. However, it's beyond silly that he's The Guy in charge of Houston First and it's stated goal. How do convince others to have confidence in Houston, when the guy in charge doesn't seem to have any?
  10. The old design looked like less of a prison, but I guess that doesn't matter?
  11. It is. Which is why I'm glad the residential tower next to it is of similar scale. It "neutralizes" the garages impact somewhat.
  12. I hope he figures out how to cook a steak. I love Sorrento's. It's one of my favorite restaurants, but the last two times I've been with customers that ordered steak it had to be taken back. Medium rare to Sorrento meant a good surgeon could have saved it.
  13. Six fire trucks show up at cvx tower every week
  14. I might be misremembering. I thought it was next to Kyle, but It might have been Cain which is close to Kyle/MSC
  15. There is also talk of a full service hotel as part of the Kyle Field redevelopment. There's a campus master plan that shows a hotel and conference amenities near, or connected to Kyle Field.
