I genuinely thought we'd do it overland like Fitzcarraldo.

I'm from Pasadena. I've gone to the Battleship so many times. It's a great outing. I don't know, but I'd like to think it would be a hit with Houstonians. Imagine climbing to the conning tower to take in the view of the city.

I like this rectangle filled up with little rectangles and will be cheering for it until it falls into the sea

So, are we ready to discuss that the building actually kinda looks good.

Some might wonder if we're even playing the same game.

What will never fail is that someone in some capacity will say "you know I think this building needs a little hat."

I agree with Ross. I can see why one would like it shorter. But 50 is fine with me and all the pictures made recent pages feel long.

There's a Hanover Montrose looking building behind the tallest building in one rendering, but not in the site map rendering.

Honestly, looking at it more closely. It seems like the entirety of the gardens is surrounded by hedges and a large wall, with only small gates for entry, which who knows may be locked. I don't know (I'm asking), but it seems the entrance faces into the neighborhood, away from the perspective of almost all the renderings. So to get to the garden you'd have to go through this impressive but not exactly conductive building. I'm not exactly sure if the gardens are meant to be accessible in the same way Hermann Park is.
Are people going to have unfettered access to the gardens daily?- 1

Fins like in the towers above put me in the mind of Chicago's Aqua which was very popular. And then Houston had a little version of the Aqua in 2929 Weslayan.

So I think the building is great. I'm very high on it. One thing that I keep thinking of is that even for Houston, even for that area it seems a little private, a little pulled back from the street. I'm not going to pretend to know or presume on the foundation's public or privateness but even then, I'm afraid the building will be lovely and (despite some of its renderings) from many spots difficult to see.

It reminds me of that joint Don Draper goes when one of his marriages is falling apart.

If I stare at the uncanny imprint of the absent Service Corporation International Building anymore, the actual stubborn reality of the Service Corporation International Building is gonna make it one of my favorite buildings.

I get what Brooklyn is saying although it's a little like saying the very end of the tail wags the dog. We live in a climatically reactionary nation, in an oil-money town, with entrenched anti-bus/rail interests. I'm not sure the Ion has room to imagine a world where folks will be coming en masse on bikes.

Sure, it's fine. It looks like the off-brand die-cast model of the Brava.

I think that it might simply be that, at certain points going east, living in the area is deleterious to the health.
Having said that, as someone from Pasadena, the city (or other cities, populations) have sprung up near the water. -
There's a scene in an early Frasier when one of Daphne's exes comes to Seattle and is invited to the apartment and he looks out at the Space Needle and he thinks for a second and then says "Big", which is how I feel about this.
