    I didn't realize the hotel and convention center would be so tall. This looks amazing.

    Thanks for the photo updates. Very exciting to see dirt moving for this!

    I haven't seen them in practice yet... but curious how are they different from bikes?
  4. brian0123
    Yep, the entire city would have to be under 20 ft of water before a resident in that building is flooded. At that point, we'd have bigger problems than some flooded cars in their garage.

    Just my opinion, but I'd think the area in between will need to take off first. Might be 10 - 15 years outside the loop given how long I saw midtown take to get a true synergy going. The other issue is that you have 610 cutting off walkable/biking access... so it's not as convenient as something along south main within 610.

    I couldn't agree more. TMC3 is going to reshape the city. Too many new, high paying jobs, attracting people from typically very urban places (Boston, etc.) mean there will be massive interest in living close to work in the south Houston area.

    I've been saying it for awhile now... but S Main is going to be the new hot place. TONS of large lots occupied by old apartments in (what are now) prime locations.

    They'd be dumb to not take advantage of the added activity at street level. Hopefully they don't wall themselves off with parking at ground level.

    I like HEB, but this is just plain stupid considering proximity to the other location (unless they plan to sell the Buffalo Speedway one). I'm sick of having to drive that far already and need them to open a damn HEB for the med center.

    You clearly don't understand how forecasting for future market events work. Trump/Repubs make threats to an industry... so they react. Trump/Repubs fail at said threats... industry reacts differently.

    102, it sounds like you're confusing growing numbers with actual growth and spending. http://www.healthleadersmedia.com/hr/healthcare-job-growth-slows-2017?nopaging=1 http://www.modernhealthcare.com/article/20170407/NEWS/170409931 Etc... Regarding what I'm personally talking about...I'm referring to what our CEO has told us directly about the Medicaid cut impacts to us.
  12. brian0123
    Actually I'm published and do work on the clinical side daily (currently working to integrate AI to do a better job at predicting outcomes). While you seem keen on Trump, I suggest you look at the outpouring of healthcare orgs against the current house (and current Senate) bills. Yes, healthcare is doing great following Obamacare. That's what you're seeing. Trump has literally done nothing yet other than introduce uncertainty in the healthcare market.

    Healthcare IT Architect here. Those growth numbers are due to growth under Obamacare. They've started to slow hiring recently based on uncertainty in the markets with Trump. If the Senate Bill passes, we've already been told that the Medicaid cuts will have a detrimental impact on our business. You clearly are clueless when it comes to the reality of the healthcare landscape.

    Will the hotel and condos share the pool?
  15. brian0123
    I don't think I've been this excited about a building in some time. It could have some incredible views from it and really change the landscape of how the TMC skyline moves south. Really hoping it's not some bland box.
  16. brian0123
    Any renderings for this available? I'm coming up empty on my searches.
  17. brian0123
    Do I get a prize for starting one of the most active, long running threads?
  18. brian0123
    Kind of disappointed. Those photos look like carnival rides off 45 that would be setup in a random parking lot.
  19. brian0123
    I agree about those parts. I was defining TMC as the main hospital system areas. I'm down Southwest of TMC and agree even s main has tremendous potential.
  20. brian0123
    Residential on the outskirts makes tons sense, but not on the interior. Our response times could be negatively impacted by throwing other types of visitors/traffic in the mix. Also, the TMC is going to start getting taller (hence this project added 19 floors on top of an existing 6).
  21. brian0123
    They must have found my old posts on here from 2013 . I've been arguing for this design for a long time and am glad to see it coming
  22. brian0123
    That's a large hole. Would that be for retention/lake?
  23. brian0123
    Not sure if this needs another post but thought it applied here... https://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21721656-data-economy-demands-new-approach-antitrust-rules-worlds-most-valuable-resource

    Houston needs this. At work (I'm an IT Architect at a big hospital in the TMC) we're starting machine learning to analyze data of our patients and get into predictive models to better treat them. Data science in healthcare alone has the potential to change the world and Houston should be at the forefront. It wouldn't surprise me if we get to a point where (based on your vitals and data alone) we can predict when you're in danger of a medical emergency occurring so that we can preemptively treat you (or improve staff response times). Turner + any other Houston should rally around this for the UT land location given its proximity to the TMC and potential benefits to our economy.

    The grills allow some airflow across the battery container (at least on my Leaf it does). They also have the AC radiator.
