    I knew Mr. Hines was highly influential but never realized he and his company designed basically every major tower in Houston not to mention the Galleria and Water Wall. Truly an icon not only here but worldwide in the business.

    Do we know what restaurant will be in the Post Oak/San Felipe corner yet?

    That is really bad. They will have to repair that sooner than normal.

    I found this for PX plan review fee (PX)

    I am excited for Williams to not stick out so much. This won't be as tall but will compliment it well.

    The Jack in the Box Lot is also owned by Westmont according to Harris County Appraisal District. Plus the article mentions the Jack in the Box. I had a co-worker see a homeless person take a dump in the middle of the day behind the Jack in the Box.

    I hope they view this as a legacy for McNair and go all out

    Yeah that time frame is an estimate and doesn't mean much if you end early. They have to allow time for restoration as well if they don't just pave it all or move to the next phase right away.

    That project task on the Site Notice says they are moving utility poles and relocating McCue. That would only happen if this was moving forward. This is the early works stuff they have to get out of the way. I don't see how that takes five months but glad to see movement.

    Great news. I used to live right there and would walk over quite often. I don't get around there as much as it is great to hear they are coming. I read about the Voodoo Donuts as well. I think they are taking over the old Radio Shack.

    Nidda Thai needs to come back. Loved that place. I heard the owners were back in Thailand for now. Hope they reopen one day.

    They will have to work with CenterPoint to move. CenterPoint will have a backlog of this type of work and will put it on their schedule. If the builder didn't reach out about this early on then they could have this situation where it isn't moved yet. The builder could speed up the process by doing the engineering work for CenterPoint and then they will move it up their backlog.

    Connecting to the tunnels is awesome

    I think some may come around but seems like it has been very quiet lately. Though this one came out of almost no where. I really hope Shanska happens. I just feel like we might hit a lull until the next wave. A lot of companies are hitting pause with COVID. I hope I am wrong and some race to beat others to open like you see on Allen. I just feel like the list you listed was always more of hopes instead of expected to happen.

    This may be the last one to break ground for a little while. A lot of backlog of proposed towers is drying up around town. There are still some great ones but less in Downtown and Uptown. Med Center, Museum District, Midtown, and along Allen Parkway going strong.

    I like it. A lot of the ~30 story buildings are looking similar. It is a nice change of pace.

    I saw a neat one in Mexico City and always wanted one here. There is one on the backside of Tillman's car dealership at the Post Oak. It is nice for when you eat at his restaurants in the tower you aren't staring at a concrete wall. I think this parking garage will be amazing because of the size that the vertical garden will be.

    This helps prove it is a food desert. Most of the options are miles away. Randalls is more expensive than average grocery stores. The new HEB is probably the best option. Going to Fiesta or Walmart on Wayside, HEB in Gulfgate, or Fiesta by NRG are not great options.

    This will have quite the presence coming around the bend on Memorial.

    I just now realized this building doesn't curve like a sail and than both side curve toward each other.
  22. thatguysly
    I drove by this weekend and it is such a presence and strong addition to that block. I love how it curves.

    That one and the one at 610/San Felipe are also a full dollar higher than the average. I hate working in that area because you have to remember to get gas before running out near the office.

    I am glad for the photos> i can see this one from work as well as others and it is weird not seeing what may be the last one for the time being out the window. I have gotten to see ton go up in the Uptown area since I started this job five years ago.

    I liked Disco Kroger because I could easily walk to it when I lived in Montrose. My complaint is that it was too small and the overall selection of items is limited.
