RIP Disco Kroger. I loved walking there to get my groceries. It was the only time in my life I was able to feel the city was walkable. Hopefully, they do something great with this property because it is prime real estate.

Houston Botanical Garden At The Glenbrook Golf Course
thatguysly replied to cloud713's topic in Going Up!
There are some nice older homes about this location. It will be interesting to see if the area sort is sort of lifted by this project. I think about the Botanical Garden in Fort Worth since I grew up going there. That area took a very long time to turn around and there were a lot more factors than just the garden. The walking/biking trails along the Bayou are cool too. -

Aspire Post Oak: Multifamily High-Rise At 1616 Post Oak Blvd.

Really cool view from there. I am surprised the handrails are already rusted on a tower that has been finished for only a few years.- 1,031 replies

The Allen: Mixed-Use Development At Allen Parkway & Gillette St.
thatguysly replied to jmontrose's topic in Going Up!
The Allen is the first mixed-use project in Houston that features both condominiums and a hotel since the Four Seasons hotel in Downtown Houston was completed in 1982. Doesn't The Post Oak have both or are they talking about inside the Loop?- 1,647 replies

Aspire Post Oak: Multifamily High-Rise At 1616 Post Oak Blvd.
thatguysly replied to Mab's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
This one looks like it has topped out. The top "steps up" from south to north. The southern end is 38 stories and the north end is 40. You can see the step up in the rendering.- 1,031 replies

M Square: Mixed-Use Development At 3200 Post Oak Blvd.
thatguysly replied to editor's topic in Going Up!
No. This is just street and drainage work. It is most likely being done in preparation of the the tower. Others said bids are currently going out for the tower. This type of work was done for The Post Oak before it was built. I bet this one breaks ground first half of next year, assuming the bids are selected this year. -
This is just a facelift of the new Hilton Garden Inn/Home 2 tower off 610. I would like to see a more intricate façade if they are going for this look.

The crown will be added too. This one has a pretty good height to it. This and the BHP tower really stand out and look great.- 1,031 replies

Uptown Oaks: Senior Living High-Rise At 4718 San Felipe St.
thatguysly replied to SkylineView's topic in Going Up!
I saw this was approved at the 3/5/20 meeting but not sure what it will do. I tried to find additional info and learned that Brazos Presbyterian Homes already owns and operates The Hallmark. They have owned it for years.- 68 replies

I really hope it is like when school ISDs move into old grocery stores and it looks really bad. Hopefully, they do a full face lift.

The Allen: Mixed-Use Development At Allen Parkway & Gillette St.
thatguysly replied to jmontrose's topic in Going Up!
That area is historically important. It shouldn't be moved or discounted because the ultra rich moved in. They can coexist. The City does need to go in a repair some the apartments but they do look much better than they did 10 years ago.- 1,647 replies

CityCentre: Mixed-Use Development At 800 Town And Country Blvd.
thatguysly replied to Parrothead's topic in Going Up!
This one looks great driving by but that parking garage is trash and is on prime real estate. The whole City Center development is pretty cohesive overall but I feel this garage ruins it unless they put an exterior on it.- 954 replies

thatguysly replied to Subdude's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
I haven't been to that location yet but heard negative feedback from those that have. Said it was bad compared to other Ninfa's locations and terribly slow service. Hopefully, it was just new restaurant issues that work out. It is super close to my office so I plan on going.- 2,419 replies

You are right he cost would go to the developer. If the lines need to be raised for traffic going in and out, the developer will pay for that too.

Texas Tower: 47-Story Office Tower At 845 Texas Ave.
