there's either been a change in plans, or there's a good misinformation campaign going on. Now they're saying 7:10 a.m. Is when boom goes the dynamite.

Coog's Crossing: Mixed-Use Development At 4001 Gulf Fwy.
Al Williams replied to Scharpe St Guy's topic in Going Up!
they never tore the building down because the foundation is so thick that not even a nuke would break it apart a bud of mine did a structural survey on the place right after Fingers closed the first time. He was amazed at how overengineered the place was- 221 replies

GreenStreet: Mixed-Use Development At 1201 Fannin St.
Al Williams replied to MontroseNeighborhoodCafe's topic in Downtown
yeah... NRG has the entire 9 floor office building, and three floors of what was going to be retail space. I checked out the construction every day as I walked from the parking garage to (in the day) and stumbled back after work at night -

they have blocked off a couple of lanes on Polk street, so major deconstruction is probably under way

yeah... if the walls of the recently closed Lucky Village at Westheimer and Fountain View could talk, they would blow your mind... 1) the completion of many west side roads, ie, Wilcrest, Dairy Ashford 2) Cardi's 3) the explosive growth of Ft Bend County 4) Backstage 5) the Axiom 6) Judy's! I had forgotten about that place! My friends Carmen and Angela used to drag me there with them all the time 7) Dream Merchant!!! I bought most of the tools that lead to the wreckage that has become my life there- and I wouldn't change a thing! 8) Rockers, Struts, Corners, and the other rock clubs whose names I don't remember because they kinda mattered but really didn't!
