    That's before the egg-cartons started showing up. Amazing how many you can shove into a single-family lot - especially when there's no zoning...

    Nothing says cutting edge like wrapping a building in a plain bleah wrapper...🙄

    Since Covid, Embassy Suites seems to have taken some of the cheese off the pizza. Among other things, the omelet bar is limited to certain days of the week and the business centers have been removed. And like a lot of other hotel chains, they will only do the rooms if you request it. At least they have breakfast...

    The GHP has put out an update on TMC3 and the other projects in the vicinity... https://www.houston.org/news/houston-life-sciences-sector-heats-developers-delivering-needed-space As Houston Life Sciences Sector Heats Up, Developers Delivering On Needed Space

    Yep. Triangles are my favorite shape...

    I don't think it would have been as stand-out farther west. No bayou for a backdrop, no downtown buildings as framing and too many other competing buildings... And the public housing doesn't look all that shabby...

    Anyone who lives or visits there will get to see that view.

    I guess it's still in design, so no renders yet...

    Intriguing sign. But I'm still not convinced this isn't vaporware...

    Tel Aviv proper...

    I thought they only did projects like this in Israel.

    Maybe they like the look of it all wrapped in fabric...

    So the rendering was for something six floors taller. Has it been revised?

    It really has a La Cage aux Folles vibe to it...

    This, I believe, is the problem. Not only does Houston not seem to have enough venture capital, but any that comes along goes to the oil and gas industry. With all the products being invented out of the TMC, there should have been several start-ups that would have gotten themselves established in the last decade. There certainly is plenty of know-how...

    GooglEarth currently shows some funky-looking rendered buildings on the site. Judging from that aerial photo, they tried to sketch it up and missed...

    This sure wants to be moved to Alexandria, Virginia.

    This is way too much of a tease to be real. How does an eye doctor have hundreds of millions in financing to blow on a 58-story residential building?

    I hope they leave the framing exposed. Pompidou Center in miniature!

    I went through all the top cities on the list. If I am to believe the estimates, Houston and Dallas lost population, as did many other cities, while San Antonio and Fort Worth had gains of 10,000. Almost every other large American city appears to have lost population. I would not be surprised if the 2022 estimates show these people miraculously reappearing...

    If it were unethical, Google would be put out of the mapmaking business...

    New York always seems to have been a place that people said they were fleeing, but every decade, the Census shows more people moved in than moved out. As people depart for other parts of the US, immigrants replace them. It has been like that for over a century. New York City has more people now than it's ever had.

    To infinity and beyond!

    Verosade, eh? So they're involved with these two, in addition to 3615 Montrose?
