  1. Another entertainment facility will also open in this location! https://www.beatthebomb.com
  2. Dollar Tree plans to close 1,000 stores after taking $1.7B loss. Not sure if this will affect this location but it seemed a little relevant since they also mentioned they plan on shuttering stores in the coming years when their lease expires. https://www.bisnow.com/national/news/retail/dollar-tree-loses-nearly-2b-will-close-1000-stores-123306
  3. This has been approved by Harris County Commissioners. This lot (that was recently demolished) along with the northern lot (grass field that also used to have a building on it) and the southern lot (currently has 7 story building on it) will all be apart of a Memorial/ Park. The project indicates that the 7 story building off San Jacinto and Franklin will be demolished. https://communityimpact.com/houston/heights-river-oaks-montrose/government/2024/03/08/master-plan-approved-for-downtown-houston-park-to-become-lynching-memorial-site/
  4. Interesting, NRG will be called "Houston Stadium," AT&T will be called "Dallas Stadium," Sofi will be called "Los Angeles Stadium", and MetLife will be called "New York/ New Jersey Stadium" since FIFA refuses to acknowledge corporate stadium names. I personally like that better 🤷‍♂️ the city is better represented. https://www.si.com/nfl/texans/news/nrg-stadium-changing-names-for-2026-fifa-world-cup-houston-texans
  5. So this is where the trial is supposed to be north of Sands Point (that would eventually connect the Westpark Trail). This issue is also prevalent South of Beechnut (that is supposed to connect to the bayou trail). Is this something that can be fixed? Are those companies just "borrowing" the area under CenterPoint or is it bought out? Can anyone provide any clarity?
  6. Nothing concrete but more talks about Tilman Fertitta wanting to bring an NHL team here. Also, doesn't the Toyota Center's naming right expire this year? https://www.bisnow.com/houston/news/commercial-real-estate/tilman-fertitta-says-hes-in-serious-talks-to-bring-an-nhl-team-to-downtown-houston-122976
  7. Absolutely hate it and extremely annoyed :/ I understand free market and that business is business...... but this wave of gas stations popping up on every single prime real estate is really frustrating. There's a Texaco directly north of this property, a Shell directly east of this property, a Chevron 0.3 miles south of this property, and a Valero 0.3 miles north of this property, a Valero 0.4 miles northwest of this property, and an Exon 0.5 miles north of this property. Not to mention a new gas station planned at the former Golden Coral 0.4 miles south of this property. Just in the 0.4 mile radius of this proposed gas station, there will already be 7 gas stations....
  8. IMO, this location won't last very long, this is most definitely their most expensive lease in Houston considering its compromises an entire city block in Midtown. Looking at their entire Houston portfolio, most if not all of their locations consist of a small section of an entire retail strip center, which is obviously cheaper than renting out an entire building, let alone and entire building on an entire city block on one of the most expensive land in all of Houston. It just doesn't make any logistic sense.......unless they bought the property and are only using it as a real estate investment (like McDonald's).
  9. Im very curious what they're planning to do with that open space above the underpass. Would be a great spot for a little park but it looks like they blocked it off from the rest of the development?
  10. Being a mayor does not mean you're smarter than anyone. Really weird statement 😂
  11. I'm a little confused by his statement about Denver Harbor not having sidewalks. Google street view can easily show that there are definitely sidewalks on all their major streets, yes some are not in the greatest shape but I've seen worse on...Westheimer/Montrose area. If he's talking about residential streets without sidewalks, well, he should look at Rice Military/ Washington/Heights/ etc that are way denser and still don't have sidewalks. IMO, yes, sidewalks should be placed/ expanded everywhere throughout Houston, but his priorities doesn't make sense. Focus on the densest areas first, the areas where lots of people are actually walking like Gulfton, Washington, Heights, Montrose, etc. His statement sounded like...why are we expanding the sidewalks in Midtown when there are areas in Clear Lake without sidewalks....???
  12. Westheimer watching all these streets get rebuilt while being one of the worst major streets in Houston.
  13. Im so excited for this place but soooo nervous for the renderings. I would say its thee best BBQ in Texas (if you have better suggestions, plz let me know 😅). This will be the second time Terry Black's builds ground up, Lockhart was the first and.... honestly very hideous atrocious building/ site. I really like their Dallas location but it was just remodel of an already nice building. They have specified that it wanted to have ample parking, so I just hope they don't end up building near Laird st and make everything off shepherd as parking :/ especially since Shepherd is getting redone to be more pedestrian friendly.
  14. That would have been great too! Any type of increased density is always a plus in my book!
  15. More renderings! https://www.papercitymag.com/real-estate/ritz-carlton-residences-the-woodlands-exclusive-first-look-real-estate-coup/#500456
  16. SOO glad a gym is replacing 24's suite! There's no major gym in Midtown/ Museum district/ Montrose/ 3rd ward/ Eado. There's a Lifetime in downtown but.....very expensive. There's also an EOS fitness on Allen parkway but its very out of the way for a lot of people in the areas I mentioned. Plus, the whole point of having these urban/ walkable areas is to be able to walk to everyday essentials. Great news!
  17. So we should expect something like this, which is going to be exciting for kids and collectors!
  18. Did I ask? Stop trying so hard to seek validation, this entire page is you just going back and forth with others.
  19. UK signage North of Westheimer and outside of the zone suggested above. @j_cuevas713 is correct.
  20. A permit sign is up for "glenhaven estates plaza." I'm assuming they're planning on tearing down the exiting structure and build a shopping center..... hopefully i'm wrong
