  1. To see the Orion "site", turn on Asbury Street which is between the strip center with Texadelphia & Los Cucos and a gas station (Texaco?). At the bottom of the hill there is a parking lot with the old sales office. Several months ago there was still a observation type platform you could walk up which overlooked the graded site down near the bayou.
  2. In this thread discussing a new HEB on the Katy board, someone notes they are putting in another HEB at I10 and Bunker Hill. Scroll down to Costco King's post. HEB @ I-10 and Bunker Hill
  3. Lowes may own the land and I've noticed that on the LaCenterra site, but it looks like the current contruction activity is actually some strip center or pad sites on the street frontage. Per the FBCAD, it is one lot, but there were signs up (may still be there) regarding rezoning on that property. Was most likely creating some parcels on Westheimer frontage. I've heard they are having some trouble getting some restaruants interested in LaCenterra due to lower daytime populations. If they could get more of the office space leased on the 2nd floors it should help drive higher daytime population and visitors to the developement.
  4. Proposed development by Wulfe & Co. called Boulevard Place. Runs all the way from San Felipe to Ambassador Way on Post Oak Blvd Boulavard Place
  5. Good memory. I checked HCAD and it was owned by Exxon Corp back until 1993. The abandoned bank property was Texas National Bank. A company called 755 Post Oak, Inc looks to own the whole corner inlcuding the bank property. It will be nice to have something new on the corner.
  6. I checked it out last night on my way home. It is a new sign that say something like coming soon - Post Oak Corner. Has picture that has a building on it but can't really tell what it is. That lot and the abanoned bank just to the west of that corner are kind of an eyesore to the area. Does anyone remember what used to be on this lot @ the SW Corner of Post Oak Blvd and 610 West Loop? There is just a slab left.
  7. Are you talking about Post Oak Blvd or South Post Oak? There is an empty lot on the SW corner of Post Oak Blvd & 610 that has been vacant for at least the past 7 years I've work in the building almost right next door. I think the For Lease sign has been there awhile also.
  8. They have released some tenant names: "Retailers such as Merle Norman, Cold Stone Creamery, Talbots and The Wine Next Door have already signed on to open stores at the new center. Meanwhile, White House Black Market, Coldwater Creek, Eddie Bauer, Jos. A. Bank, Berryhill Baja Grill and Ann Taylor Loft are in negotiations to open stores at LaCenterra."LaCenterra tenants
  9. It was a little dark this morning when I left the house, but there is now a construction/environmental fence up around the property and some underground/sewer work has begun. Looked like there was some equipment on the back/south part of the property so it should be underway.
  10. I was kind of thinking the same thing as I drive by pretty much every day also. There has been some materials that look like brick/siding "samples" out on the Northeast corner of the property near Cinco Ranch Blvd @ 99 for some time. I'll be happy to see some dirt moving.
  11. The Great Room is available for rent to the public. I assume there will be quite a few Christmas parties there. I believe I read on another post that the Randall Davis kick-off celebration for the condos going up on the James Coney Island site around the corner was held there. As a side note, they worked on erecting the steel frame building with a plastic/vinal skin for several weeks leading up to Hurricane Rita. On Wednesday before the storm hit, it looked like Houston would be hit directly so they tore the structure down and hauled it off in trucks. On Monday after the storm passed to the east, they had a huge crew putting it back up which only took a few days.
  12. The Great Room is a party room/ banquet hall owned by a division of Landry's. I believe they own the whole block of land with the Great Room, the dealership, then their building which is next door. See link to the Great Room
  13. Good point on the parking. We live about a mile down the road from this site we see it almost every day. Just from driving by the site it does not look large enough for the buildings and adequate parking. It makes for sense now that I see the garages on the plans.
  14. Here is a site for LaCenterra that has quite a bit of info including a nice aerials and plot plans. LaCenterra Website
  15. Did a little searching and found this picture of Hanna Barberra land in Spring.
  16. I had lunch at JCI yesterday and asked one of the workers how long the restuarant will be open and he said they have been told at least 6 month. I guess it always depends on the number of units sold to get the ball moving.
  17. I believe it was 2003 when they were acquired by Starbucks Seattle's Best history
  18. Per most of the listings on har.com for 2400 McCue it appears it was built around 2002 - 2003.
  19. houston-developement or others, any new information or updates on this project? Are you still hearing of further delays?
