    Given the description of the different atrium's, the anchor tenant is either a co-working space operator, a food-hall operator, or a music venue operator. Seems like the retail portion is intended to be experimental retail/pop-up shops rather than major tenants (similar to Chelsea Market in NYC).

    Noticed the signage today. “ A new restaurant tenant is heading to mixed-use shopping center Highland Village. Gauchos Do Sul will take over the third-floor space formerly occupied by Up restaurant at 3995 Westheimer in late March. The outpost marks the second locale of Gaucho's Do Sul. The first, which opened in 2016, is located at 126 Vintage Park Blvd. in Cypress.” https://www.chron.com/entertainment/restaurants-bars/amp/Gaucho-s-Do-Sul-steakhouse-open-Highland-Village-15068390.php

    East Hampton locked out. Only surprise is that it didn’t happen before COVID.

    Business journal publishes a list of the largest employers based on local headcount.

    What’s going in there? Surely not Willy G’s as it’s in the PO Hotel development

    Any entrepreneurs with a proclivity for caffeine would make a lot of money on a local coffee shop in Upper Kirby/RO/HV

    River Oaks/Highland Village also need coffee shops. Only option is Starbucks.

    It actually looks like your southern fence line won’t be completely obstructed.

    Buffalo Bayou and White Oak were insane yesterday. Felt like I was in Central Park with the amount of people I had to dodge.

    Parking Ratio: 3.0/1,000 https://parkplaceriveroaks.com

    The idea is that people will park at either of the transit centers bookending the BRT line.

    New tenants: Moreau Paris Zadig + Voltaire Zimmeermann Chopard has vacated, and The Avant Garden (florist) bowed out from its corner space across from Toulouse. Unsurprisingly, the test-store didn't pan out. https://www.riveroaksdistrict.com/map The always-empty East Hampton must be getting a sweetheart deal from ROD. I'm surprised they're still around given how fast they exited their montrose location.

    I've been to NH 3 times, once before the shift in concept. My thoughts are that the pivot was for the best as I was way more likely to go back for the second vibe and menu, which was a lot like a tamed down coltivare.

    Nearby, Night Heron is ready to call it quits and is just waiting for someone else to sublease the space before closing. http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/02-27-20-night-heron-montrose-restaurant-for-lease-closing-agricole-hospitality-morgan-weber/

    Target filling the former Shepherd Square Randall's space. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2020/02/28/target-to-fill-prominent-storefront-in-montrose.html

    https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2020/02/20/houston-developer-gets-financing-for-mixed-use.html $38m construction loan provided to Hunington Properties by Parkview Financial. Expected to be complete in mid-2021. 168 units, 20,475 sqft of ground-level retail space. Above grade parking with 305 spaces.

    Nice 👍🏼

    Kendra Scott taking over the old space occupied by Kate Spade (next to Sweet Paris). Also, rumor on the street is Lululemon will be taking over two floors in the build out of the former Smith & Wollensky space (reported to be 4 or 5 floors).

    To be fair, JP Morgan Chase owns the corner portion of the intersection so BB&B property would be analogous to Novel River Oaks and Cadence bank on Westheimer/Willowick. The intersection will really take off once HEB is complete. The Beck's Prime lot is a little over a quarter acre and has been appraised at $1.19 million from 2016 - 2019 on HCAD.

    They're collected every night by organized freelancers/contractors and placed neatly on the sidewalks by morning. In my experience there's always a few wayward users who leave them where they shouldn't be, but for the most part users are conscious about parking them in the right place.

    I view a Nike store the same as Apple stores. They're a destination shopping experience in and of themselves that people are willing to travel for and would increase traffic for adjacent tenants. ROD has a lot of prime spaces that are vacant (see the former Tom Ford space), but they seem to have a leasing strategy/team that is struggling to compete with HV and The Galleria.

    The only ideas that make sense start with total demolition. I propose it be made into some sort of outdoor venue, like a large amphitheater for concerts. As an example, see the renovations for the Pacific Amphitheater at OC fairgrounds. This will add greenspace, and compliment other programming within NRG park/stadium, particularly during the Rodeo.

    Bold prediction.... Ocean 48 (steak 48 sister restaurant) going in here. Houston needs a Nike store though.

    East village is just the name of the development.

    I believe the owners of Finn Hall also own the conservatory. So my guess is they wanted to avoid cannibalization.
