  1. ^ I miss being able to see the entire elevation of the planar rhombus step back and cut out elevator lobbies or "staircase cuts" of the First City Tower. Craneless
  2. In that situation you want to run time off the clock, he did the right thing (versus that foul he gave in game 2; see ). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ edit: ^video unrelated to game 4 comment below. If you rewatch that last play, he tries to wind down the clock, gets the ball stolen, then runs across the court to defend and then again runs across the court to close out on Mo Williams. Lin hustles so it's hard for me to be critical when a ref call this way or that could have swung at least 3 of the 5 games played so far.
  3. I always walk to get here and I live almost 10 city blocks away and it's always closed when I visit too. Ridiculous if true about the parking and wouldn't the same parking regulation hold true for Midtown Park? Just post some hours on the park sign, sheesh.
  4. This is my fav rendering Looking east down Dallas at Travis St. According to the roof plan, that notch on the right hand side of the rendering will be a nice spot to see the Main St. canyon and the expanded park below.
  5. If I'm playing SimCity, I would skyconnect a re-re-renovated Greenstreet to a renovated Park Shoppes (Houston Center) via a Highline absolute knock-off, type steel stucture going over Fannin north from Dallas and turn east down Lamar to arrive at the Southwest corner of San Jac & Lamar (there's a tunnel entrance there too). Killer app: water features (and could also be a sidwalk below landscaping feature). I don't think the Dallas St. renovation that was envisioned earlier by the mgmt district really made much suggestions for addressing the parking garage street faces or the loading docks. It's best to try and minimize the racket and olfactory offenses, and those beeping, approaching car buzzers are the worst.
  6. As a resident and employee in downtown I will just say that I'm not that interested in retail itself. Public accommodations are more worthwhile; like wider sidewalks, art, trees, etc. I buy most of what I want online anyways and can't be bothered to waste time hunting for physical goods (unless it's crate diggin for rare grooves). Service oriented retail might work like strip clubs or dry cleaners but physical retail is like driving your car, it's fun for about 5 minutes and then I just want the computer to take over so I can read my feeds.
