They're moving painfully slow finishing up the retail portion. So much for the 'Opening Early 2014' on the sign at the intersection. The Whole Foods website says the store will open Summer 2014. At this rate, that'll be September.

I have a friend who works at the Whole Foods Kirby and yep they confirmed this weekend that August 9th or there about would be the opening of Whole Foods Market Post Oak... OMG this really is a delayed project!!! Geez! haha

cannot wait for a re-do of GRB...hate that they modeled it after a cruise ship to help symbolize that we are the Port Of Houston and port of the Gulf...super dated, super cheesy so re-model away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

interesting that they are closing just that one since its across the street from Central Market but yet keep the one on San Felipe open which is about to have a Whole Foods open across the street... lets see how long that one takes to close as well..............

any new news on the Alamo Drafthouses? A montrose location would be awesome and would be happy with a midtown location....just haven't been able to find any new/updated info if there even is any... thanks!

haha yeah and old photos with the old pavilion in them are still up so those need to be changed...as well as update with the names of the new tenants and possible opening dates etc...i mean come on updating a site is more than just adding some new pics to old photo albums....

and they havent updated the news section since 10/20/2013

they definitely need to update the site...i wrote them telling them too...lets see if that works haha! http://blvdplace.com/

wow how cool! i live across the street from all of this so this is exciting news....*

thanks for all the info and updates!

*until my rent is raised so high i cant afford it

just stopped by and its going to be a Parvizon Rug store?!?! Really?!?! haha...oh well...

man i have been waiting forever for them to tear down Courtyard at Post Oak however just today i drove by and saw that they are renovating the former Dessert Gallery portion of that building and placed a permit sign in the window...hoping to go by tonight and see who is moving in there...i am hoping it is something good at least...maybe Torchys?

Edit to say: just drove by and its a Parvizon (sp?) Rugs store! BOO!

thanks for the response and just today they posted a yellow paper on the door so i am going to drive by tonight to see who is seeking the permits etc! man i would love a Torchys there haha...but whatever it is i hope its good!

actually the entire Dessert Gallery space now has papered up windows so it seems that entire space is being renovated...any know details? thanks!

something seems to be moving into the plaza (Courtyard at Post Oak) as they have papered up the windows in what appears to be a newly built out space in between the dessert gallery and ninfas...anyone know what is going on that space? thanks!

wow so amazing and cannot wait to see how this all progresses! thanks for all the pics and renderings everyone!

thank god we can all have an opinion! i live and work in uptown and walk alot...so to ME it is very pedestrian friendly because i do it alot and it is for ME! i cannot wait for Blvd Place to open because i will be walking there alot as well! (the only part i do agree with regarding Uptown being pedestrian unfriendly is crossing westheimer...yikes! that can be a little scary...haha!)

cannot wait for Common Bond to open...already getting rave reviews and amazing press and still a few months out ha! seriously, its going to be amazing... www.facebook.com/wearecommonbond

oh that is weird...if it was on the front side i would say its some fun way to have people experience eating outside of the Whole Foods Market...ie. picnic tables on grass would be fun! but not sure since this looks to be on the north west side of the building!  and hey this has been driving me crazy but at night has anyone else noticed when you look at any of the Frost Bank windows there is that circle light reflection as you drive by? it catches my attention every night as i drive by (the circle light/reflection grows bigger then smaller as you pass it) (i work and live a block away or so on each end of this building...) and i hate it haha...its so distracting to me for some reason!    hopefully its just a temporary thing but it appears on all windows on both the east and north side... kooky i know but had to post! haha! (edited to say oh wow you can actually see one of the circles in that photo above... look at the second story up on the left about second window from left and you will see about 3/4 of a circle...!!! oy!)

Do we know when Whole Foods is opening?

last i heard it was april 2014...cross your fingers for that...or sooner i hope

haha love the McD pic as well...you are awesome SkyLine View

haha i just want to say thanks for keeping me entertained on a boring day at work
