  1. Since I started checking this forum I've been let down by announcements. So perhaps they're trying to uplift me by just building without an announcement
  2. Sorry for the ignorance, but in the (theoretical) highway realignment downtown, what would this 45/59 location look like?
  3. I think Houston is filled with faintly "imprisoning" looking facades, some I like some I do not. But (and maybe I'm being generous) I think the Cathedral handsome when taken in from a distance.
  4. On the subject of tall buildings in Midtown, I'm trying to work this out: there is this redevelopment, the office component of the superblock, and the handsome Louisiana at Anita block, and of course this (http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/30772-residential-high-rise-proposed-for-midtown/) which may or may not be this.
  5. You know that melancholy feeling when you're excited for something that you think you should be disappointed in.
  6. I agree, Utterly--the rendering has some odd features: it creates a handsome view for a brief moment only to be obscured by the highrise and become a view of an alleyway. I wonder if something is supposed to be in that crevice--like a line of hedges or something.
  7. I'm probably naive, but if 45 was buried, this might be quite the marketable corner. I imagine that that concept I saw on paper, perhaps earlier this year was just that: conceptual.
  8. And because the Plaza and Rise are conflated...some pictures of the redevelopment.
  9. If I may say, I'm a little more excited about the prospects of this one--perhaps because it will be more or less connected to the Northgate development. A few pictures of the site.
