  1. If UA intended to compete for Houston travelers they shouldn't have made those routes from Houston the most expensive in the country post merger.
  2. Right. I'll believe that when I see it.
  3. Yes visibility is bad there. But if we're going to attack that problem in Houston we only have about 45,000 other structures to get working on.
  4. I want to see more on the revenue side. What is the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo, OTC, other conventions, etc. expected to contribute in revenue. Otherwise all I see is one expensive renovation with higher property taxes.
  5. I also understand the galleria area has the benefit of a budget by way of a tirz and 59 has to rely on a regional txdot office with most likely a small maintenance budget
  6. To be clear I like vegetation but the out of control look drives me crazy. It's my personality. Some people like the wild look but I like the clean cut look.
  7. I'd prefer they put something they will maintain. The galleria 610 is beautiful and this stretch looks bad to me. It's my opinion, I didn't say it was right but I'm entitled to it
  8. Of a very poor quality. (And, however you did your smiley emoticon thing)
  9. I maintain it looks atrocious. The vegetation is half dead and completely neglected.
  10. When does TXDOT give up on the stupid vegetation on 59 and start over? It looks atrocious driving through there. There are trees growing out of what should be crawlers up the freeway.
  11. I have hard time believing they would approve the tree transplant to begin with. But as someone who deals with Exxon a lot, if they do decide to go forward on a project, it will most definitely cost five times as much as a smaller/leaner organization could do it. They are known for redundancy (over engineering) and gold-plating projects. They are very large, and projects reflect that.
  12. When heritage plaza made a tunnel connection to the garage they open trenched it. I drove over big iron plate for a long time
  13. I did it once. The flight was cheaper from HOU-IAH-CLE instead of direct IAH-CLE. It took about twenty minutes. This was about fifteen years ago. When I asked why they had the flight I was told something about logging hours but I'm not sure if that was right.
  14. I know an XOM engineer being moved to ...Tyler and its a good career move. I know another that recently moved to Brussels. I suspect some will leave the company but I don't think XOM is worried if that's what you're implying.
  15. Don't use this forum as your window to the world. The Exxon campus is literally the big thing around town everyone is talking about. It's going to change Houston (populations) for better or worse.
  16. If I recall it will be taken down floor by floor similar to 1200 Louisiana.
  17. I need to hang out with you
  18. For what it's worth it looked like they had fencing on site today on my commute home
  19. I really have to wonder when the post office property gets a look. In typical US government fashion they will probably watch the most robust real estate market pass them by and not capitalize.
  20. There's also vacant retail in one park place. I like GFR too, but only if it makes sense. A ton of empty store fronts would be way worse
  21. That has no impact on their financials. Only some poor franchisee who owns the store
  22. "We" don't live in a communist country. We respect and protect individual property rights which is why we live in the most prosperous country in human history
