    Maybe since Oxy is leasing space in Greenway, once the industry gets back on better footing they might look to build their own HQ on the site! Of course it's wishful thinking, but it does seem, at least from this cycle, that energy companies like buildings built specifically for them. Maybe this experience will push them back to leasing space though.

    The first rendering makes the office tower look huge! Probably a bit ambitious though...

    And from previous pictures, there are balconies facing the garage, sure they won't have a good view, but it seems indicative that the backside is not just a blank wall.

    Damn that things huge!

    It's been on the development map for a while(6+ months). Interesting how it says 5 stories on the description, but the rendering looks like 6 floors all the way around.

    Looks like some pumper trucks are flocking to the site. Seems there is a mat pour imminent! Edit: Doh! Should have read to see if someone had already mentioned that.

    Knowing the Chron they are already confusing this building with the Catalyst.

    I don't see why a larger development(100+ units) couldn't take the remaining 45 units in incentives and and just build the others without any tax credits(like the Fingers Project). Either way I'm sure someone will jump on the $675,000 credit left in the program.

    Another 20+ story tower near the ballpark too! It's great that developers are continuing to follow through with some good developments, despite the "slowdown" in the energy industry.

    The floors above the lobby are parking as well so they generally aren't very tall.

    From the webcam, it looks like the blue crane segments went into the taller tower crane and it also looks like they are assembling another red crawler crane.

    Is he the one that put the A&M flag on the crane?

    Sounds like we need to get a petition going to save the sandbox!

    It's pretty incredible how many threads degrade to arguments about transportation.

    Great Pics Nate! No 609 Main though?

    Lots of concrete being poured on site today on the office/parking garage block. Nate, we need a downtown update! :]

    Interesting reflection of downtown.... Don't know if that's the right angle.

    I miss your great weekly updates! Please move back, thanks!

    Hey after knocking up Jackie he's adding even more density. Maybe a prophecy of good things to come?
  20. ClutchCity
    Yes, it'll add density.

    I've seen cats respond to names. It's pretty remarkable!

    Unfortunately I haven't run into anyone wearing a Gensler shirt and bombarded them with questions since then. I wasn't trying to say it was a certainty, just that one of my questions was if they had been working on anything big height-wise, and they said they were working on a potential 65 story tower for a confidential client in downtown. This was about 6 months ago, so who knows what the status is now. It might be dead, or it might be more real then the proposed multi-tower development in downtown Dallas.

    So November start?

    This one lists it as a 40 story tower, with 12 story garage podium. Still sounds like 40 floors total, rather than 40+12 or 52 floors. http://www.downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2014-10-28/Downtown_Real_Estate_Update_2014-3Q.pdf

    Some more information about the project from Central Houston's latest Downtown Real Estate Update as well. It appears that this complex is not taking DLI Incentive money. It's good to see downtown residential development starting to stand on its own. The Hamilton's 148 units, combined with Fingers Ballpark's 397 units, means that downtown has 545 units currently under construction that aren't taking away from the incentive programs 5,000 unit cap! Let the good times keep coming for downtown! http://www.downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2014-10-28/Downtown_Real_Estate_Update_2014-3Q.pdf
