    The other tower crane came down today, but there continues to be minimal apparent progress despite continued work. Still lacking most windows except for the lowest floors of the tower.

    288 toll lanes open Monday (11/16) per Fox26 report. Free for the first two weeks through 11/29.

    Apparently there was a murder in this building 😧 https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/crime/article/Man-fatally-shot-in-Midtown-Houston-high-rise-15700781.php

    Not sure what's going on, but after rising pretty quickly this seems to have slowed wayyyyy down. They are definitely still working, but I haven't seen any appreciable progress in weeks/months. You would think they would start putting some windows in the tower by now, but nope.

    One crane coming down today

    This isn't technically the correct location/thread, but I couldn't find anything better by searching... the old Goode Co. Seafood building right behind the new one is currently being demolished. I read once awhile back that there were plans for an office tower there, but not sure what the plans are at this point.

    288 Northbound -> 69 Southbound is pretty awesome as well, a little bit closer in version of that same view (minus the med center)

    It's pretty well hidden (only really visible coming north on BW8), but there is a top-out tree on this one.

    Sadly I’m moving so this is the last photo I’ll be able to post from this vantage point. It’s been a joy getting to watch this one rise, along with several others completed ones in this photo over the last few years.

    Being that close to Buffalo Bayou Brewery would be amazing but dangerous

    Yeah I was just going to post how it looks like they'd stopped again, I guess that week when there were a bunch of guys working on the office component they were just tidying up the site or something. Oh well.

    The lights look awesome now, the building really stands out along Westheimer at night but not too in-your-face.

    The Southmore bridge was torn down at least a few months before I moved away from that area in July 2018... I hadn't been over there in a while, so when I was driving down 288 the other day I was shocked to see it still wasn't finished. I think I remember them saying it would be closed for about one year, and now it's been well over two.

    Thought this one topped out a few weeks ago, but saw those pilings or pillars or whatever they're called up there so I wasn't sure... spotted the tree today so it looks like it is.

    Residential tower has been topped out for a week or two

    Some lighting elements on the south side of the office tower were on last night, possibly incomplete because they looked like some sections were missing

    Looks like the last crane jump happened today

    Oh ok that makes sense. The link makes it look like just office but I guess it is only marketing/lease that portion

    So that lot is going to be an office building, not Equinox hotel? Or both?

    Good news (hopefully)... there were quite a few guys working on the office component today, or at least doing something on top of the one floor that has been constructed. I'm wondering if maybe they pushed it back to utilize one of the cranes from the residential component and that way delay completion of the office part a bit until there is more demand? We'll see.

    Construction trailer has arrived at the former Smith & Wollensky site

    Decent amount of glass has gone up here. Sorry couldn’t safely get a pic at highway speeds.

    Hermès painted their plywood dark brown to match the rest of the facade 😂
