  1. If Houston wants less parking, it needs to provide more public transportation…
  2. Not a good looking building but there is a need to have affordable housing in the city and the downtown and it will help build up and populate downtown. There isn’t a lot in that part of downtown and we need to build it up. It will be interesting to see how much the units will cost.
  3. I’m leaning more and more towards getting rid of the parking requirements from the city of Houston. Let the businesses decide how much parking they will need rather than the government. The businesses will have an incentive to decide for themselves how much parking they will need, because it will determine how many customers they believe they will receive, relative to how much space for parking they believe they will require.
  4. This will be a new service to the city and we will gain money from it, not lose money from it. As long as they are not obstructing pedestrians and bicycles from moving along the sidewalks, I don’t mind a little “clutter” and I don’t mind the right of way being amended to include non-transportation amenities, I think that positions our city to use our right of ways for a larger variety of services.
  5. This guy has a blog where he regularly talks about Houston and he just posted a blog about The Woodlands.
  6. Great project. I hope both it and Springwoods village are built.
  7. I was hoping they would do something like this when I first heard of the church burning down in 2005. Should be a great addition to the fourth ward.
  8. What are your thoughts and opinions of the Woodlands Town Center? Discuss and post your thoughts.
  9. ^^^^ 1. There will be a clearer view of the design features of the balcony when looking at the building from the east. 2. Over time, more things will be built there. You never know, in 2025 that balcony may be one of the best views in the city. Perhaps not the neighborhoods east of 59 but in the downtown area there will be lots of demand.
  10. If we can't pay for it we might want to try to get more investors. Maybe something different than a hotel, something like a theme park or a mall. Something that will get more people involved, and bring more money in. Go ahead and let free market competition of those who want to benefit from the project help pay for it. ...just a thought in the case this project hits any serious trouble.
  11. Besides the name change, there's a chance the new owner won't want to keep the building lit up or they may change the lighting. However the building is highly occupied so the chance will be slim unless it goes to a much smaller business. If Hines can keep it lit up I would imagine most owners could.
  12. ^^^^^ That's huge right there!!!! Shamrock was cancelled and they were signing leases with tenants.
  13. I don't see a reason to get all caught up in this until we get a "yes or "no" from the developer.
