TXDot has provided additions to the HGAC 2045 document. Some of them are quite significant. Its worth looking at the full list, some of these are projected prior to 2030, though they run the entire range out to 2045. The full list can be found HERE. Note, I believe that they are missing a 3rd page from the summary (ie, the first two pages should have a third one). However, the county-level list looks complete. A few of the notable changes: Replace 610 bridge over the ship channel Replace I-10 bridge over San Jo Add 2 I-10 managed lanes 610W to San Jo bridge Elevated lanes through Uptown on 610 (missing from the summary, but included in the Harris County list) Something on Hempstead (I can't unpack what they are really proposing for that corridor) Lengthening the proposed highway 35 corridor out to/past beltway 8 Expand highway 99 from I-10(west) to Kuykendahl New divided highway corridor west of highway 99 from 290 south past 59

M Square: Mixed-Use Development At 3200 Post Oak Blvd.
SkylineView replied to editor's topic in Going Up!
It has not begun. This is all still related to the Post Oak widening. -
M Square: Mixed-Use Development At 3200 Post Oak Blvd.
SkylineView replied to editor's topic in Going Up!
My office overlooks the site. All four quadrants are being used (extensively) as a holding area for the Post Oak work. PO @ Richmond is supposed to re-open in May, but I can't imagine they will be able to move all the stuff out of there until the full Blvd is a bit further along. -
Aspire Post Oak: Multifamily High-Rise At 1616 Post Oak Blvd.
SkylineView replied to Mab's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Let's not hit the Cosmo too hard. The base is bad, but don't forget it used to be worse (#NeverForgetUrinals)! Also, for the area, and the unit size, some of the condos are pretty price-efficient now. If you want to own a place with floor to ceiling windows in Uptown, and don't want to drop $1M for a 2/2 at the Arabella, this is your baby. All-in with condo fees it's comparable with the new 2/2 apartments nearby. There's a bunch of them on the back side (away from the construction) on higher floors for $600k. LINK- 1,031 replies

BLVD Place Mixed-Use: 1700 Post Oak Blvd.
SkylineView replied to Subdude's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
The amenity thing is a relatively new addition to Houston. Some of the newer apartments / the ones with really nice pools & cabanas charge them. My wife and I (which live/ have lived in Houston high rises with and without the fees) call it the "cabana charge". If you see cabanas... there's probably an amenity fee.- 2,419 replies

CityCentre: Mixed-Use Development At 800 Town And Country Blvd.

HBJ said 600,000 sq ft... 14 floors.... 42,000 sqft/floor.... 300ft x 140ft. Using googlemeasure (high tech stuff), that's ~ 1/3 the site if you assume the garage goes through to the back. #ChecksOut- 954 replies

The sheer number of people working on this every day is amazing right now. There are teams on both sides and the middle down the entire 3 mile stretch.

The bus lanes fly over the freeway and dive "into" the freeway... ultimately coming out in (like literally inside) the underpass where 610 intersects Post Oak. FYI, 610 SB is completely closed all weekend around Woodway. All 610 SB traffic (all 8 lanes) is being pushed to the one-lane Woodway exit and along the 610 frontage. It's 10pm and it's backed up for a mile and a half. Avoid.

Also... is there a way to move this out of the Trains section and into the general Transportation section? The Boulevard Project has nothing to do with trains.

I came across an article indicating that the Bellaire transit station is underway. This will anchor the southern end of the Blvd project. Article: https://www.virtualbx.com/construction-preview/houston-bellaire-uptown-transit-center-due-in-2020/ Indicates work starting effectively now (Oct 2018) and ending in 2020. I checked the planning commission minutes, and it was reviewed and variance granted. I drove past after work... all I could see was the first pillar to hold the elevated drive to get to the HOT lane (immediately south of Westpark Dr) and it appeared to be outside the property line. Anyone have any other details?

I have some pics of the one on Post Oak from when the Astoria was built...

All pics by me. You wouldn't believe how many people walk over there on weekend mornings. #ImLovingIt

Yeah, this is a huge impact... even just the 200 feet of trees makes it feel like the good old days (remember the trees and planters from back in 2016?). The sidewalk is also really coming together from San Felipe up to 610. I was skeptical, but this is great. [an aside, and then content] What's up with posting content on this site? It's been messed up for (literally) a year for me. I can't drag files... I can't "insert other media" and I can't use the "link" button anymore either. Anyone know what the deal is? I've cleared cookies, I've tried different photo hosting, I've tried IE and chrome, I've tried my work comp. It's like the site is anti-content. How are you guys posting photos in content?

Site work ongoing. It's a funny spot back there... looked at a house wedged against the bayou about a block away... except for the complete gridlock from 430-600 it feels like you're about 20 miles outside the loop. It's a very quiet block of Houston.
