I worked at a Handy Andy in high school that was on Braeswood and Hillcroft. Then it became a Rice.

Hey- I am glad to have the in-fill. I also agree that it beats any and every Randall Davis. I would just like to see some cool top on a few more of these buildings. Hines has proved that the tenants are willing to pay for it. I just want a new 90 story trophy tower and I don't feel like that's too much to ask! (Kidding, kind of)

I can't imagine how tall that will look! Also - I agree that it looks like the Southmore 2.0. Can't we please please get a tower with more pizzaz? Austin gets them. Dallas gets them. We are the step-children of cool high-rises. Look at what is going in on Bammel - it already looks like a 1990's dated design and he hasn't even started. None-the-less, I am glad for the vertical construction over the 8 story wraps.

Urbannizer - you're the best! Surely it'll be a high rise. Can't wait to find out.

So, I just heard from someone this afternoon that the entire block bounded by Bammel, Sackett, Earl and Philfall is under contract with Borlenghi. No confirmation if that is who actually has it under contract (I hope so) but supposedly the tenants have until the end of the year to vacate. This is the block of bungalows that have been used for years as offices. Would be a great location for a highrise. Can someone confirm?

Improvements Coming To Allen Parkway
Dakota79 replied to Urbannizer's topic in Traffic and Transportation
Do you think they will meter the parking on Allen Parkway and at The Dunlavy? The parking is always full now as everyone takes their own car instead is either carpooling, biking etc. And there's no incentive to not leave your car there all day. -
I wish the sun had been shining - but that was too much to ask this weekend. None the less, this area is full of life, and the hotel isn't even open yet. Plus the GRB looks fantastic.

The Galleria Mall At 5085 Westheimer Rd.
Dakota79 replied to TreaderCRC's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Oh no! What if the owners of one of the Cosmopolitan can't see the Walmart on 59?!! I smell a lawsuit! Seriosly though, they do need to upgrade those Westin Hotels' exteriors. -
The Galleria Mall At 5085 Westheimer Rd.
Dakota79 replied to TreaderCRC's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
That's because it was a government contract as opposed to being for the private sector. They' should've just torn down Leland and rebuilt. It would've been faster and cheaper in the long run. -
The saying "you can put lipstick on a pig and it's still a pig" has now been disproven. This is such a dramatic improvement from the hideous dated look it was. Alas - we still have the dumb-*** red pipes but wow. What a makeover.
-
BTW - they are actively pursuing the hotel addition now for a 2018 opening. It'll be great high end brand. (Per those in the know).
