I have been given permission to share the following:
Quote"Stern and Bucek Architects is doing the remodel and addressing flooding damage and renovating it for the new owners that acquired it after the passing of former owner/Houston preservation leader Bart Truxillo."
This applies to both buildings on the block.

Mia Bella’s brunch slaps. Welcome return to the neighborhood. It’s been at least five years since they closed up shop at Main and Preston.

Was really thrilled to see the demo company truck outside. Hope they start making progress.

No real activity here, but they have erected temporary chain link fencing around the Commerce Street side of the building.

I peeked in for a look around lunchtime. Didn't stay for anything to eat, but wow. It's a great looking space completely unique in downtown (so far). Lot's of energy and the pictures don't do it justice. Great amenity for both downtown workers and residents. Looking forward to some late nite Mala Schezuan soon.

Renovations are underway, and have been for the past week or so. This is posted on Travis:
They have completely removed the rear exterior facade and wall of the building - it is completely exposed to the elements:
According to a worker on-site, they will extend the lower patio out to about where the building is on the left side of the photo. They will also add an upper patio be a mezzanine that will extend from the building. It will be a night-club.

QuoteA new food hall is coming to downtown Houston complete with a dozen food outlets, a craft beer and wine bar, and an art deco cocktail lounge.
The Food Hall at Main and Rusk is set to open in early 2018 at The Jones on Main in the JPMorgan Chase building at 712 Main – the former Gulf Oil Building that is undergoing a major renovation by Houston developer Midway. The 37-story tower's owner, Lionstone Investments, in partnership with Midway, has tapped Austin-based Oz Rey, LLC, to develop and operate the food hall.
...
The food hall, which will offer breakfast, lunch and dinner options, is designed to be a culinary destination with a "curated group of celebrated local and global chefs." The dining and drinking concepts will be located in the grand lobby of the building.
While no local chefs or concepts have been identified for the project, the food hall is described as a 20,000-square-foot project that will feature "chef-driven food outlets, a craft beer and curated wine bar, and art deco cocktail lounge and unique private spaces."
