It looks like they fenced off a small portion of the surface lot of the construction trailer, parking, and lay down.

It has been like that since it was installed. Haven't been able able to figure out why. It annoys me to look at so I was hoping there was a logical explanation.

Fairview Collective: Mixed-Use At Fairview St. & Mason St.

I live by here so I am hoping this will work out. It fixes major street issues and would have expanded food and drink options. I sure would have liked getting a brick and mortar Waffle Bus.- 205 replies

I feel like dead or something. The fence came down a couple weeks ago but I forgot to post until I went by again. Nothing looking like anything is happening.- 205 replies

This project, even though the better design was changed, is turning out great. Nice lighting, unique style, and the back side of the ugly podium will be blocked from view. Easily my favorite RD project.

I like the Galleria and Williams tower in the background when the view is to the north and not the west.

I was at U-Plumb It on Montrose this weekend and the owner talked about this project saying he got an invite to the public meeting. He just told me 20 stories and the setback. Same info that is posted here.- 155 replies

I think part is that it is full of so many people not from Houston or Texas and there was never an identity to rally behind. Dallas is the same but the show Dallas really gave it a national identity. Houston is huge but never the focal point of a tv show or movie. Atlanta has an identity that has come from music and entertainment.

The highways can't really be expanded anymore unless you do a funky underground thing like DFW did with 635. Point being that mass transit, light rail especially, must be more heavily considered. I cannot believe expansions like 288, with all that room they had to work with, didn't integrate a light rail extension from the Med Center.

This one will look a lot better now that the podium will be blocked from view. The west side of the podium isn't as bad since it is the entrance and they added some glass.

Watermark District: Mixed-Use Development By Midway
thatguysly replied to Houston19514's topic in Going Up!
This topic is brought up a lot in my office. I am currently in the Uptown area. The majority of those that live in suburbs live in Katy. Those in Katy want to have the office in the Energy Corridor. Those in the loop want it to stay where it is. And those in the other parts of the city aren't as vocal. Polls have been done to see if people want to move to Energy Corridor or up 290 to split to the Katy/Woodland difference. The loop wins for now and more so with younger workers, who make up the majority of the office. The big negative that management sees with a suburban location is it kills recruiting for people living anywhere but the loop and that one suburb. A central location helps bring in the most talent from throughout the metroplex. People in the loop are more willing to go to a suburb just because it is against traffic but from what I can tell in a larger office is that going to suburb to make one group happy makes that majority unhappy. It is hard enough to commute from Clear Lake to the Galleria. But it is much worse to do Clear Lake to Katy.- 45 replies

I saw that today as well. It's not the actual Target parking lot but the space behind Arabella and next to the Skyhouse parking garage. I was worried that plot would be forgotten and happy to see it will be filled.
