Sort of. . . The “10 story building” in back is a parking garage with a ballroom on the top floor.- 500 replies

$33 million on a project for which construction hasn’t started and with a completion date five months away. That’s a tight timeline!

Blossom Hotel Houston: 16-Story Hotel For The TMC
MarathonMan replied to Urbannizer's topic in Going Up!
Very beige. -
North side of The Travis at night. Better than the daytime view. It’s oddly fitting, though, that there are a couple of lights that are out-of-sync with the rest. Maddening — just like the unpainted parking garage. LOL!

Amazing Spaces Self Storage: 10-Story Storage For Greenway Plaza
MarathonMan replied to joshrea's topic in Going Up!
Ugh! I’m shocked at the number of self storage places in this city. -

I understand that this is a Holl building and that glowing boxes are sort of his thing. It’s a fine building, and I’m sure the interior will be nice and functional. Safe with a little twist, in my opinion. I’m just waiting for Houston to commission a “take your breath away” piece of architecture that makes people worldwide go, “Whoa!” I think we missed an opportunity to really advertise Houston’s impressive cultural establishment to the world. I’d submit places like Bilbao, Denver, Mexico City, Antwerp, Valencia, Hanoi, Paris, Alberta, Minneapolis have seized their opportunity more effec

The model/rendering looks cool. I’m still bummed that the most interesting aspect of the exterior design (imho) — the roof — will go largely unseen. Although, it should translate to a spectacular ceiling on the inside.

I think they are the same design, but the perspectives are different and one is a daytime render while the other is night.
