Huge posters off "art"* at the top of Post Oak. Elegant. *Don't know what the posters are of. I look away and pretend they're not there. Huge posters off "art"* at the top of Post Oak. Elegant. *Don't know what the posters are of. I look away and pretend they're not there.- 988 replies

Pearl 21Eleven: Multifamily At 2119 Westheimer Rd.
Naviguessor replied to TexasGeneral's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
"Pretty lame... and that giant grassy driveway (which can't be accurate) makes it seem like the building is out in the exurbs." - that perspective is as if you were standing at St Anne's looking across their driveway and Westheimer.- 115 replies

Two Hermann Place & Three Herman Place: High-Rises At 1661 Hermann Dr.
Naviguessor replied to ClutchCity's topic in Going Up!
I think that the perspective of the first rendering gives an impretions that it is leaning/tilting more that it really is. It won't actually be as precarious as it seems in the the rendering, once built. swtsig - You know for a fact that the Hines Deal is in-the-bag? I am quite sure if Hines is doing it...that it is. There is no developer more trustworthy in this town.- 345 replies

Oh Jeez. Did I really spell Bayou, "Bayuo"?! It would be nice if the City/Parks Board would consider returning the Breas BAYOU (and some others) to a more natural state...in the future. Like they are doing with Buffalo Bayou. I do realize that the "Improvements" here are much more extreme, however.

Ok. Thanks for the research and answer. Wasn't aware that they owned 2800 Clinton along the western edge of KBR. Big warehouse now. Makes sense, however. Anyone know what else they control in the area?

Chevron Tower For Downtown At 1600 Louisiana St.
Naviguessor replied to tangledwoods's topic in Going Up!
It all comes down to a matter of taste. I don't think that our downtown/highrise cluster lends itself to this kind of "show". Could any of us imagine our skyline with a couple dozen Texaco style oddities. I actually think the Texaco building works in the skyline. It evokes a "front door" type strcture with an embelishment over the entrance...in this case a Mayan pyramid "likeness" rather than a colonial eagle. Anyway...a touch of embellishment in the right location can work...but let's not overdue. I happen to believe that the proposed Chevon building is the right approach for the campus and our skyline.- 1,170 replies

800 Bell St. (Former Exxon Building) Conversion to Residential
Naviguessor replied to TheNiche's topic in Downtown
Yeah, Cloud. Loved your idea about a submerged park and this would be an awesome location for it. The Exxon building would look awesome framed by the street level opening. The whole effect could be very mid-century. Hot!- 689 replies

800 Bell St. (Former Exxon Building) Conversion to Residential
Naviguessor replied to TheNiche's topic in Downtown
I always thought that Enron2 was a brilliant deisgn that complitmented, and honored, its two closest neighbors/parents. The shape and wall curtin from Enron1. The proportions and the top detail echos the Petroleum club of the Exxon. Even the overhangs from the Exxon building are "mirrored" on the side of Enron2 that faces Exxon (look close)...but not on the side that faces its father...I mean...Enron1. Really Brilliant and sensitive. The Exxon building would fit beautifully in to the "Campus". I bet that Chevron would add some significant green space on one of the blocks in the area. Park or Plaza.- 689 replies

The Astoria: Condominium High-Rise At 1405 Post Oak Blvd.
Naviguessor replied to wxman's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Red, you are probably one the, if not the most insightful, and thoughtful, people in this forum and your consideration to the topics are always real and enlightening. Please don't diminish your point of view and distract the topics personal insults and smack-downs. McDonalds owns the land...they are going to do whatever they can to maximize their profits. The fact that they compressed their footprint so a developer can build a highrise is a win win. Red is right...a city's development, at least in this city, in this country, isn't up to a planning board off some sort. What we are witnessing, at this property, the market working perfectly. We will, and hope to, see a lot more of this type of densification. And... Mc Donald's will always be part of the mix. It's who we are.- 988 replies
