    This is a very stupid project to spend $350MM to fix a problem that occurs once every few years for 12 hours or so. Not to mention they are not going to do this in coordination with their other planned elevated managed lanes project and the METRO inner Katy BRT project. This along with 45 will manage to screw over the one good commuter bike path in the City for a full a decade (MKT trail from the Heights to Downtown).

    The Bayou Club is on the western edge of the park and makes the River Oaks Country Club look inclusive and diverse.

    That crown would have to be huge. 609 Main has 48 floors - will the crown really be that much taller or the height of each floor that much bigger to push it more than 10 or 20 feet above 609 Main?

    The parking has not even been complete for a year - it finished right before Harvey - I wonder why they even bothered putting it up given this was in the works so soon. It's also extremely annoying that this sidewalk is out of commission again - it's been nearly 3-4 years since we've been able to reliably use it!

    Renderings for the tower were posted by the Chronicle https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/article/Hines-launches-next-generation-office-tower-13083568.php

    Our move-in date to the building has been delayed from May to July. I'm ready to move out of our current space!

    If the payments + HOA fees were low enough, they would be good investments to purchase and rent out UH students for $800-$1000. 30 Year mortgage on a $120,000 unit (assuming $20k down) is about $500.

    There is not a lot of business travel between Houston and India. There are a lot of Indians in Houston who travel to India though, but when they fly to visit home, it's a personal trip so usually a cheapest fare Kayak or travel agent ticket is bought rather than full fare business class tickets that United likes to count on for its routes

    There are three new residential projects that will be within a block or two of this development (Skyhouse 1 & 2, and Alliance). I don't know, I just don't find courthouses to be helpful to growth.

    does putting the courthouse there impact the new skyhouse and alliance developments? I can't imagine it could be good for residential growth in that area

    I'm just going to say I find it hard to believe someone's credentials when they come blasting them all over the place....so if you come on the internet and say you're part of Parker's inner circle, I am hesitant to believe you, mostly because if you were found out, you would be shitcanned in like five seconds for being a leak (politicians love those). The other people on this forum, are understated, come with information, but don't really let us know how they come by it, but we get the impression from their scope of knowledge that they are in the development or commercial real estate industry.

    Most of the new apartments have not come online yet. Parts of 2400 West Dallas, Hanover West Gray, Hanover Rice Village are the only ones that have really come online recently. This summer is when the bulk of the new construction hits.

    Well, I'm currently in the market, so it's been rather disheartening. I rented a brand new 2/2 in Camden Travis Street in 2010 for the same price as a 1/1 now. The specials are starting to come back. 2900 West Dallas, the new Finger property by the Whole Foods is offering a free first months rent, but of course that is on a 940 sq ft apartment going for 2000 per month

    Park Place is minimum 2000 for anything. To get 1200 a month you need to go to older complexes like Calais. New structures are 1300+

    Opens up for tenants in May 2014. Prices for a 1 br run about 1600-2000 depending on square footage
