    dubai is beautiful as long as you stay within the city limits. Otherwise the locals are racist AF and look down anyone else. This is coming from an arab.

    ive been saying all along how hideous this building is.

    yes they only have a year, they rotate their workers in and out. They have it down to a nail. One floor every 4 days

    was talking to one of the managers and he told me they only have one year from the skyhouse to get the entire thing built. If they take over a year then they get in trouble and have to pay, and whatever days they finish early they get a bonus. the industrial look inside makes it much easier for them to build and wished more people designed their high rises like that

    so now that the garage portion is topped out, should this be picking up a little bit? Isnt it already half way up in terms of height wise?
  10. astros148

    Why do you have to push them away? Instead of spending millions tax incentives for housing for big corporation, is it too much to ask for maybe built some more shelter for them?

    one of the best responses in the thread. They need more metro officials imo actually doing work. I always see groups of them standing around not doing shit!

    you're literally out of touch if you dont think theres not a issue. I work in the health care field day in and day out and work with numerous mental health care facilities and own a decent business myself. Theres issues with the homeless/pan handlers that need to be addressed. I am in no way saying lets throw them all in jail or some other bogus, im saying that theres needs to be ways to reform the way we look at them. We need to create more shelters for them so that the ones that really do want want to get help can. As a city we can not continue to look at the homeless people as its not a issue and simply glance past it. Some of these homeless people have serious mental conditions and which law enforcement and others need to be better trained for. We need to have a better law enforcement presence Main like more bicycle cops and better lightening which the above poster said is being addressed. Im not saying that we need to exterminate the homelss or whatever you're trying to twist my words to, im saying its a PROBLEM ON HAND. We as a city can not stop overlooking it. That stretch on main from bell all the way to rusk is the worst stretch after 8pm and ive had buddys who are cops saying theres always numerous robbery and theft but they simply dont have the resources.

    Turner might suprise more people then they know. Spoke with campaign manager last night and was impressed by their vision of the light rail
  22. astros148
    If they had a solid proposal I'm sure they could get all sorts of tax incentives bcz Parker wants retail in dt so bad. All it takes is true vision and a different approach and mindset
  23. astros148
    Spoke with turners campaign manager yesterday at a gathrring and was very impressed by their vision of future of commuter rail and rail in general. Turner understands this issue and his manager told me they definitely do plan on tacklimg this issue and plan to see what options they may have to expand light rail. Very very optimistic right now
  24. astros148
    If they can do this concept there, why in the world couldnt this work in downtown? Say in Main and bell on those surface lots?
  25. astros148
