  1. I feel after the Superbowl visitors will see how a Global city we are and have a different view of Houston. That empty lot we need a tall observation tower. Why does Seattle have the Space Needle?
  2. Had to fly Southwest (WN) very impressed with Hobby Airport. They should rename Hobby International Airport. I don't like the boarding process and their flights are always late. It is good they give you free drinks when they are late. This month 56% of their flights are one time. United is at 71% with 5,000 flights a day. The flight attendants were irritating one whistles through the flight. Then they ask you to move for a free drink so a family can sit together. I love United if my flight is delayed they send a text on the APP with my new flights.
  3. Chevron received tax abatements from the COH and the state. Then laid off employees and never built the tower. They should use the lot with a monument of a oil rig.
  4. To bad this one must of got cancelled. I don't think this will ever get built.
  5. It already is a landmark. The national blogs just love the design.
  6. What are they doing with this building? 609 Main topped out and building the crown. It has been renovated for years. Does anybody know the hold up?
  7. Skycities notes 2929 Weslayan at 533 feet. Urbannizer should the true height.
  8. A friend of mine bought a house off Banks St. for $375,000 and now itis wroth $1.2 million. They a greedy rich people. They need to be sued!
  9. The World Almanac states 2929 Weslayan 533 feet and the Huntington is 503 feet. I think Emporis has the correct facts.
  10. I believe it is a nice direction. Does anybody remember the movie "Logan's Run"? That is what uptown needs those pods that take your all over the district. And can be built over the streets. We are space city so do something! With all the highrises going up the traffic will just get worse.
  11. It looks like it is topped out and working on the crown. My BDay June 30th how sweet!
  12. Skyscraper.com states 2929 Weslayan is 533 feet tall and Market Square is 510 feet tall. So it is not the tallest highrise in Houston.
  13. Why is the Trinity River so ugly? Why cant they make it into a nice park as Houston did with Buffalo Bayou? What is wrong with the city leaders? I view the map with all those midrise buildings but there should be a nice park in the area.
  14. Just left 24 hour Fitness. There are doing soil testing what a big lot!
  15. It is a total mess inside when I went to Comicpalooza. I hope they get it finished soon.
  16. The significant of the crown will allow this skyscraper to be one of the best. Just wait.
