I was driving through the area Saturday morning and there were several small groups of surveyors using equipment and marking points around the Sears building and several surrounding properties. Also noticed (not sure how recent this was) that the Gulf Gas Station on Richmond and the highway had been torn down, equipment still on site.

Sounds like this one should be breaking ground in a month or two if that's the completion date.

Persons experiencing homelessness tend to be near the overpasses, seldom do they set up camp far from the highways. To me, the major areas of downtown (Market Square, Theater District, Discovery Green, etc.) do not see large amounts of this activity. As time goes on, with the proposed demolition of Pierce elevated, continued Midtown development, the sinking of 59, and the proposed highway cap near the convention center/ball park, many of these camps will have to relocate to other, less developed sections of the city. That being said, the citizens of Houston need to be continually taking steps to assist these people instead of pretending as though they don't exist or are anything less than human.

Any updates on this project? Is construction expected to start anytime soon or is this project delayed/dead? I'd love to see this kind of project get built.- 11 replies

As I drove to work this morning, I also noticed those LED edge lights were on again. Small detail, but it makes the building look sharp.

If this does ever happen, it's probably at least 4-5 years away from starting. I've been wrong many times before, but my gut tells me that this will probably never happen. If it does, it will be something far more underwhelming, as in something that looks very different from these initial renderings. I hope I'm wrong.

If I had the money and the skills I would love too. I'm all for restoring older buildings as well.

^ I hope some form of infill, hopefully in the form of a high rise, comes to fruition in this part of Midtown. This area desperately needs it. I went to Under the Radar Brewery a couple weekends ago and the area around the Wheeler light rail station made my skin crawl. A lot of trash, small camps, and pan handlers in a small area. Once the Sears is restored and other projects go up around it, I hope the area begins to see a turnaround. It feels really disconnecting to drive through all the new developments in Midtown (Australian High Rises, Camden, etc.) only to drive through this area on your way to TMC.

Looks like very little has changed since I drove by 2-3 weeks ago. Wasn't construction supposed to have begun already, or is the start date later?
