And it's already oversubscribed. Way too many people in Houston need housing.

Balcor may not have announced it until just now. Fairmont Museum District III renders have still never been seen...

This could be a good thing or a bad thing. A new developer could really make this festival a lot larger; adding attractions, adding a small town center with the same aesthetics. However, a new developer could also bulldoze this down a build a giant Walmart with a 500+ parking lot. 

I'm concerned they may try to turn this into the equivalent of an amusement park, with rides and other things that are uncharacteristic of the festival itself.
Meanwhile, in Maryland...

It's kind of a dubious honor that the jail population is booming. Dallas has the Lew Sterrett Detention Center right where everyone can see it, off I-35, west of Downtown:

HBJ has renders:

Resia Ten Oaks

Resia, formerly known as AHS Residential, has closed on $96.5 million in construction financing for Resia Ten Oaks, a 573-unit multifamily development in West Houston. Valley Bank participated in the capital stack, with Santander leading senior financing and Artemis Real Estate Partners providing preferred equity.

There were rumors at one time that Embry-Riddle was kicking the tires on a possible Houston campus. I'm not sure that's still a possibility, but it would fit in nicely as part of the Aerospace Campus...

Seabrook City Council OKs $170M mixed-use project with Compass by Margaritaville hotels

This is not a small mixed-use. Per the article:
"... The company, owned by Houston-based developer John Fischer, plans to develop what is to be called Seabrook Plaza, with a 100,000-square-foot boutique hotel, a 120,000-square-foot extended stay hotel, a 25,000-square-foot event center, a seven-story apartment complex with 260 one- and two-bedroom units, and about 25,000 square feet of retail space.

It also includes more than 800 parking spots for the hotels and event center and nearly 370 for the apartments. Most of the parking would be on the first and second floors of the buildings..."

Separate news item:

Rosemary's Place

So is the intent for this to be a global destination?

Did Kempinski disappear off the face of the Earth?

We shoulda known. North is to the left...

HBJ hints at a major construction project. No timing:

4720 Almeda

The original thread disappeared, but this is now looking like it will happen. 800 Bell is being converted to residences.

DIDNT KNOW THAT!

They are doing their darnedest to cover up that Embassy Suites.

The incredible shrinking building? The initially advertised height was 488'...

Looks like they are Tennessee-based and operate hotels mostly in the Southeast. I didn't see the Houston property listed, but they've got one other hotel in Houston.

They should reach out to Trader Joe’s. I can see that doing well here.

Them, Aldi, Lidl. Maybe even LA Market...

No one expected TMC to outgrow its boundaries, but now there is TMC3 (Helix Park) and TMC4 (the Bioport)...
