Well Dunham Pointe is already slated for development just west of Fry Rd on that open patch of land in between Cypress Creek and 290. The residential will between Mueschke & Mason with accompanying commercial outside the perimeter. I wonder how Archie Dunham feels about this new rail line going right through his land that he planned on putting nice upper middle class homes on.

Okay well I suppose that could suffice, but if I'm not mistake another poster just stated the renderings show the viaduct returns to ground level shortly after Fry Rd.

What about all of the north/south thoroughfaes across 290 in Cypress west of Fry rd like Mueschke, Mason, Bauer, etc that have yet to be built? If the train goes at grade at that point, then it'll be a lot more cost prohibitive to get those done. What about that new neighborhood that was supposed to be going in south of 290 across from Fairfield between Mueschke@290 & Mason&290?

I'll take a mattress firm, a nail salon, a cheap donut and kolache place, a second mattress firm, and a starbucks, adjacent to a public storage and a poorly maintained convenience store with taco trucks out front. Home sweet home.

To be fair this was never really in Cypress. It's about as close to Cypress as it is to Jersey Village; certainly lackluster but probably the right choice given the demographics of the immediate area.

As much as that would be cool and potentially necessary for the coming decades, that would actually service less people than this does.

Those rental rates are going to come down to reality pretty soon for the next few years, but no doubt they'll be able to justify $2250/month for a 815 sq ft 1 bedroom once oil rebounds.

Does anyone know where I can find the toll amounts for traveling on say Segment D to the end of F2? Surely something that is set to open within a week would have posted toll amounts somewhere online, but I haven't found any yet.

Next to an old home depot and a strip center containing a dominos and a 99 cent store? This is the height of luxury! Actually on second thought given what's adjacent to it, how much are the lots going to be worth? It might be a great value for being so close to town.

It would be amazing if this city still keeps a sparing amount of these types of projects under construction in the midst of a downturn.

That parking garage facade is beautiful; it should be a model for all podium-style or attached on the side parking garages.

Developers Have Ideas For Imperial Sugar Factory
curbur replied to UrbaNerd's topic in Points Southwest
I'm not saying this is correct, but Google Maps has the area extend all the way west up to River Oaks with Shepherd as the boundary line. Edit: Then again.. those boundaries have Montrose taking up a significant portion of Fourth Ward and a little bit of Downtown even, so that has to be wrong. -

In other forums, a lot of the vitriol I've seen for ROD personally has come from Dallas boosters. I suppose they feel that upscale shopping in Texas is Dallas' thing and they're not too keen on Houston getting some exclusive stores that they're not. ROD could be the best shopping center ever designed in the world, (it's not), and they would still say it pales in comparison to Highland Park Village, (or HPV for short ).

Energy Center Three, Four, & Five At 935 N. Eldridge Pkwy.
curbur replied to Fortune's topic in Katy and Points West
Yea people seem to miss that a lot of companies prefer large, isolated, suburban style office campuses to ones in bustling urban areas. I kinda agree that there should be more forced concentration of density in this city, but that's not the Houston way and seemingly has never been, at least for the most part. Either way, the market gets what the market wants, and apparently the market wants more suburban campus style offices in the energy corridor.- 172 replies

Can you imagine the traffic at the 610/290/I-10 interchange if Uptown builds out with highrises fully like it's already on its way to do, Westcreek builds out, and this area takes off with dense development?
-
I guess this area has promise to be a nice area way way down the line, but I doubt that's going to come to full fruitition in our lifetimes. Overtime if the rail center was connected to light rail and prices rose, a lot of those warehouses and run down apartments would relocate to cheaper facilities or cash in on their greatly appreciated land value. This new development would tie in better to Uptown and the two gentrifying neighborhoods west and east that are rapidly filling in with townhomes and stucco mcmansion rebuilds.

The Astoria: Condominium High-Rise At 1405 Post Oak Blvd.
curbur replied to wxman's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
The building should be the grey color of the lower floor decals, and those decals should be white. I'm not a huge fan of it, but I also don't think it's as hideous as some would state. I do feel like this all white look with the crown would look so much more at home in Miami's skyline than Uptown though.- 988 replies
