Still awesome but 33 story twin towers would have been really cool for this area.

58 story tower still planned? 

It looks taller than the Post Oak.

This is awesome!!! 
 

Well we have made strides and continue to add to our own list, but very impressive for L.A., Chicago is to be expected.

I’ll try and upload some photos from Rufus 🤙🏽

This is a great addition, a lot of open air opportunities. 

The frog got me 😂  he got left out 

  Wonder what the building in bottom left corner is, building number 9?

I'm so happy to see these construction pictures. I was still in high school when this thread started. 

I was in 4th grade 😂

My first thought for a Pearl a la Houston would be the coffee plant, but honestly it might not be big enough. Surely these large industrial users in the East End will start to fall and someone will go big. 

When thinking of the Pearl in San Antonio I think the best location for recreating that historical setting would be Imperial in Sugar Land. You definitely lose the proximity to downtown but just a couple of cents to throw in the pile.

@HNathoo Is correct, Madison Marquette no longer owns the site. It’s possible they filed for a demolition permit before the sale.

 

PMRG built 2929 Wesleyan, purchased this site and built The Travis before merging with Madison Marquette.

 

Now that Skanska has control of this land I expect them to partner with a different architect- therefore a new design. 

Excited for Skanska’s involvement with the project after seeing their recent activity level. Bank of America tower and the 1550 on the green render both look nice for downtown. Interesting to think what their approach would be for a neighborhood development that can accommodate so much culture and diversity. 

This is going to look so good 

What a great picture!

Looks amazing!

That’s so funny 😂 

Amazing news!!!

Yes they should

Great building, fits in better than I expected. 

Still, an urban HEB downtown would be amazing 👀

Uptown has three parks:  the Water Wall, Grady Park and the small pocket park on San Felipe.  

Something more in the 4-6 acre range along post oak 👀

It was a great experience visiting the park, I am excited for the Land Bridge and further improvements. Somewhat off topic but I only wish that Uptown had a smaller city park within as well as bordering Memorial Park. Great addition to Memorial Park though, I feel that this is now the heart of the park so to speak.
