Block 58 Redevelopment by Hines, 47-Story Office Tower
KinkaidAlum replied to democide's topic in Going Up!
Somebody mentioned earlier in this thread that it would be 735 feet. That person has seemingly been spot on with reports about this project so far. -
Was there really a need to pave four lanes off of Memorial Drive into the Glades? It looks like an entrance to a newly built park in some far-flung master planned community.

Etro > Anvil. Gonna be missed. -
The Kirby Mansion: 15-Story High-Rise @Brazos/Gray
KinkaidAlum replied to Urbannizer's topic in Going Up!
36 rooms.... could make a really cool independent boutique hotel for the midtown hotspots. Lots of cities have tiny but very desirable hotels in the city center. -
Delayed due to aircraft shortage. Route will start late in the Fall/Early Winter.

Boston and San Francisco are tiny. Both under 50 square miles. And both are GROWING. Sure, it's expensive to live there but it's expensive to live in the best areas of Houston too. Try buying somewhere between Downtown and Rice or Downtown and Memorial.

It was a joke. Please take a chill pill. -

I live a few blocks away. As an inside the Looper, I take great offense to this being in the Uptown/Galleria section. -
More importantly, they fixed the fountain between Baker and Jones just in time for summer. It's my dog's favorite spot on campus other than begging for food from students... oh, and Rice Bikes!

East Village Mixed-Use Development at 1201 St. Emanuel
KinkaidAlum replied to HNathoo's topic in Going Up!
Museum District might be tough with the ZaZa right there but something like that in Montrose near the Menil. You'd be surprised by how many people come to Houston just for the Menil. Not enough for a Sheraton but certainly enough for a 30-50 room boutique. I'd also argue that something of this size in the Rice Village would mint money. -
That 747 combo was my favorite way to get to Europe. Sad to see it go. Glad I got to fly it one last time and collect my Delft Blue House to add to the collection.

It's a real shame because the building and footprint are really cool. That patio could be turned into something special, even for Montrose's trendy residents.

Terrible news. That was the first gay bar I ever worked the nerve to enter. Probably should have started with JRs but they didn't take my ID!

Interesting. The Southmore and Aris were both partnerships with Greystar. -
Wow. It's hilarious to scroll through and then go back and look at proposal A.
