4003 Washington Avenue & 4011 Washington Avenue
urbanize713 replied to CrockpotandGravel's topic in The Heights
It would be great if they proceeded with this plan instead! Official change? -
Fence was down on 3 out 4 sides this morning. Will try to grab a pic on the way home. Thought it looked nice and we are just continuing to build that downtown fabric.

Add 10 stories and build it next to OPP downtown as condos orr lot behind the Marriott. Not going to be picky.

same, turning into such a prime lot. My dream development is a mixed use building with central market/modern furniture store on first floor and apartments above. -
Australian Developer Planning Three High-Rises for Midtown

So when I-45 is rerouted this one goes away for two reasons? No longer on an Interstate and not really business viable? -
Would be perfect! No need to even extend the light rail. Natural extension of the properties they already own and invest in the medical center.... Wait, never mind. That would make too much sense, ignore my comment.

urbanize713 replied to downtownian's topic in Going Up!
Not to mention 1825 has the rooftop pool facing downtown. I'm just glad we have moved from "should I move downtown?" to "where in downtown should i move to?" -

That would make it the tallest in Houston, correct? Tallest now is 2929 Wesleyan at 533 ft ? -
Block 58 Redevelopment by Hines, 47-Story Office Tower
urbanize713 replied to democide's topic in Going Up!
From the little knowledge I have it's all of the above. I would think it varies by real estate value and the structure. Point in fact, NYC just demolished 3 "historic" buildings to build One Vanderbilt and JPM plans to demolish their 50's style tower to build a more substantial modern tower. Other buildings, especially the turn of the century examples, have been office, hotel, residential, to now boutique hotels. I stayed in such a building just this year. -
Block 58 Redevelopment by Hines, 47-Story Office Tower
urbanize713 replied to democide's topic in Going Up!
I didn't realize hot takes were published and thought of as great and informative journalism...wait. All sarcasm aside, I think it would be great to see where all of this space is. For example, how much of the available office space in in the vacated office buildings around Greenspoint? That space will probably be available for a long time. How much of the space is in the energy corridor? etc. There is a reason more buildings are being built downtown/centrally. That is where young people and now even older generations want to be. Even if they are not going to work in the CBD.
