    Soft opening this weekend.

    Drove by today while they were setting up for their grand opening. Looks like they are planning for A LOT of people. It looks like they are setting up for a massive festival less so a building's opening. Hope it all goes by smoothly tomorrow!

    Thank you! I uploaded it while walking the dog and it wouldn't let me rotate... I still don't know why it uploaded upside down, but oh well.

    We have some heavy equipment on site. It may just be parked here, but it looks way too big for the other nearby projects (utilities work on the esplanade, Forth completion, warehouse demo on Commerce).

    Vomit. Agreed.

    Speaking of East End Restaurants that are back, Villa Arcos has quietly reopened. Their web presence still shows them as closed (or as having reopened in June, depending), but the sign on the door shows that they are now open limited hours and limited capacity.

    I see people and delivery drivers walk around wondering where on earth the entrance is all the time, so, yeah, I think it's in a good spot.

    Finishing touches going up with the addition of the signage. Anyone else think the sign is disproportionately small?

    Wings, burgers, ok, I'm with you. Egg rolls? Alright, kinda odd addition, but sure. Pasta?? I guess it kinda flows, but not really. Gumbo and catfish??? That's a pretty wide range of dining choices there.

    Concrete pour for the new driveway is underway.

    There is work going on in the commercial space along Navigation. Workers appear to be clearing it out, cleaning the windows, painting, etc. Not sure if Archcon is just cleaning up or if someone is about to start build out. Will monitor.

    We need a pitchfork reaction for comments.

    Where are all the beer bike trolley things going to live now?!?!?

    For the low, low, price of $25, they can run a buzzer over your head and keep it that way!

    I am all for people getting a fair share for their craft, but wow, yeah.

    Looks like the buffalo bayou south shore trail, east of Jensen.

    Hah, Eadough pastries. Alright, you got me in for one visit at least. That said, I found this bit of showboating a bit interesting: "Having spent years in a 2 Star Michelin rated kitchen in New York, Kripa has a caliber of experience not found in the Houston food scene." I think Daniel Bludorn, the entire staff of Le Jardinier, the chef at Nobie's, and others would like to have a word with her. (Also, I don't think Michelin bragging gets you too far in Houston)

    I've seen crews come out and survey it on occasions. Many times, actually. But aside from that, I haven't heard/seen any updates.

    PM, or typo?

    Ripping up the front driveway. Guess it's time for a new one.
  21. JBTX
    Seconded. Went there last week for a work lunch (guess who picked it) and yeah, damn. Insanely overpriced (lunch short rib for $36) and really bland (risotto and bread definitely from a box). But hey, they don't allow masks in there and neither the waitstaff not kitchen staff wear masks, so that's cool!

    In keeping up with the East End thread, might I suggest (trigger warning for some re: name) EaDo Optics?
  23. JBTX
    Two ped/cycle bridges, if I recall. One near Hirsch and one just east of Middle.

    A. Yes, incredibly bone headed (my favorite was that they never shut off the waterline they ran to their trailers completely, they just "turned it off." It took us few months to realize that's why the sidewalk and grass by the house were always wet. B. Yes, about 12ft and the sensor is at least 2 ft above that.

    For some reason, I seem to recall that one of the amenities was a workout studio for residents that has outside trainers coming in. I may be misremembering too. I think the Canal side GFR may end up being a cafe as it is better suited for that (size wise), and also closer to Common Desk.
