  1. I think it'll be white 95% of the time, kind of like The Post Oak diamonds. Then for major events or something they can be changed. The Post Oak went red for Rockets playoff wins. The only changing LED colors I support are the arches on 59/69. It adds a lot to an otherwise barren "canal" on the highway. Of course it looks bad when some of the lights go out or don't change correctly.
  2. I think that was why the crane in Dallas blew over a couple weeks ago. It was locked in place and unable to rotate when the high winds hit.
  3. It will be interesting to follow this one. It is very striking but will probably get a lot of push back from the locals.
  4. We always talk about townhouses losing their views but these guys are truly in the shadow.
  5. I like it aside from the parking lots. The one in downtown Dallas is always packed but has better access to residential and no massive parking lots.
  6. It is great infill and as Naviguessor stated, it helps add downtown residents. Not to mention, it's way better than a surface lot. Is it the best, no. But it's is much better than what is in this part of downtown. I hope it gets back underway. I am sure it will. Just going to take 5-7 years to finish.
  7. The glass and facade on this will look really nice when done.
  8. Interesting location for a hotel but it is near other condos and the expected McNair development.
  9. Reads to me that Towers A and B are both Laneways, so two for Phase II. I like this guy. Straight shooter and gave good info and not typical sound bites.
  10. It is weird for the area but it's been weird for Montrose and other areas too. Sort of the new norm with land value going up.
  11. It is hard for me not to pick downtown. I have lived here for 11 years and it is the biggest change to me in terms of Discovery Green, GBR, hotels, new buildings and nightlife. I pick Post Oak for most unique building and changing the view down 610. I have to give a shout out to Buffalo Bayou and the hike/bike trails. That has been a huge improvement and taken Houston from moo to hip. The change in east end with BBVA Compass Stadium is impressive too.
  12. I like it for the space. It fits the Blvd. Header will need to be fixed.
  13. Wiki says he went to River Oaks Elementary for 4th to 6th grade and went to high school in Florida.
