  1. I think FW is at its limit now with apartments… hope this is nice.
  2. Hope they salvaged as much material as possible, including the door!
  3. This would be a wonderful use for the building. Buildings like this are treasures, and when renovated correctly, they can really be wonderful spaces which provide unmatchable ambiance.
  4. I am pretty surprised about this. Lovett’s okd HQ is kind of a cool / interesting building. I wouldn’t have thought it a candidate for demo. An apartment here fully dependent on Oliver for traffic flow makes me think Oliver is going to need a massive upgrade. that pedestrian path connecting sawyer to Oliver is extremely important IMO.
  5. It will be interesting what happens to the other warehouses in the vicinity... I can see this area take off with more multifamily in addition to a MKT campus expansion. I love that people in the area can walk to restaurants or make a pit stop there. This development is catering to the traditional consumer as well as the more pedestrian oriented consumer. A perfect blend for Houston as the emphasis seems to be refocusing around walkable places. I admit I still drive many places. Though, my spouse works here and enjoys being able to bike to work (thankfully without going on any major streets).
  6. So the warehouse complex directly across Shepard is owned by radom and that is their next phase, scheduled to start 2025. Not sure if the group here knew that or not.
  7. Sad! But understand. My parents stayed here in 77 when they were looking for homes in memorial. Moved from Chicago.
  8. It means nothing more than the value hasn’t been uploaded yet.
  9. I am a bit disappointed that this continues to get leased up compared to the more interesting spaces around. what I really want is the tower to start construction. Someone mentioned Hines is involved - is that true? I thought this was completely unrelated to Hines.
  10. I would like them to sell all of the land with a reserve of multiple parcels for a combination of mid rise and high-rise towers that can be offered are equal cost to the residents. My thought is if this is integrated seamlessly into a multiple phased development by one or more trustworthy developers, it would produce the highest results (equity / function / beauty). The city could get involved and make this really great. I think it is possible to triple to unit offerings and make money that can be used to provide modern options at a greater quantity at the same location.
  11. These guys seem to be doing things in similar fashion to Pelican Builders (townhomes). They are activating areas previously developed by Pelican. This looks 'ok'. Hopefully this ends up with brick / siding over stucco.
  12. Just thought it was interesting how long this took (sidewalks)... I was waiting more than a year! Awesome! The quality of these developments are really nice. I hope they set the standard for the historic neighborhoods there. Perfect scale for the area.

  14. This is absolutely horrible. Should have torn her down instead.
  15. Pony Up! I would definitely do train or air. I flew many times from Dallas to Houston and back. Train would be great because it seems more casual and I could walk on after a day of tailgating and sleep / rest. More options the better. And less cars on the road the better.
  16. If I was an architect, I’d give my best with the assignment and budget. Every time. silly to think successful firms are not going to design the best building they can.
