The Eclipse: 58-Story High-Rise Proposed For River Oaks
GoodToBeMe replied to Urbannizer's topic in Going Up!
In many ways, the work of an architect is easy. They risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer to live in their work. Not everyone thrives on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth architects must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when an architect truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the *new*. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends.

Enclave Place: 11-Story Office Building for The Energy Corridor
GoodToBeMe replied to por favor gracias's topic in Going Up!
Pardon, but if it appears the general sentiment is that this building is nothing spectacular... Then I am forced to ask: Why is this building even posted or mentioned here? Where we are fanatics of the architecture flair that defines the spaces and the visuals we humans love so much are forced to behold such bland and pedestrian "designs"? I do await your thoughts and responses. Thank you. -
Pardon, but I did not know Shell is building a new campus in what is called the "energy corridor". Are you certain this is correct?

I do hope it begins very very very soon.

When one steps back and take an analytic perspective on the holistic view, we can see this was coming. I'm sorry to say that this tower will never break ground. Neither will several others - looks at Chevron - because, we already know deep inside that their forecasts and analysts can see and predict what we all know - We are overbuilding in certain submarkets and the population of talent is following a certain trend that may be unique to Houston. While that the last idea may or may not be true, I do believe it will be more than difficult for resident Houstonians to pull themselves from the i

New Chevron Tower for Downtown Houston: 58-Stories at 1600 Louisiana
GoodToBeMe replied to tangledwoods's topic in Going Up!
Which building of theirs in Louisiana? I was not aware they had personnel there. Is this typical for tall buildings in Houston? I read on another thread here about several other tall structures being placed on hold. -
Very neat.

New Chevron Tower for Downtown Houston: 58-Stories at 1600 Louisiana
GoodToBeMe replied to tangledwoods's topic in Going Up!
I am not sure modeling a Houston tower after one in China would be a good thing. I say this in consideration of the subpar standards of quality they appear to embrace.
