Thanks Cloud713. It is kinda strange that an accurate rendering hasn't been published yet.

I might have said this before, but are there actual renderings for the new 24 st office tower there building? I keep seeing a 10 story version of it.

Downtown Houston is filling up quite nicely.

I believe this will happen. It may not be built like what's pictured in the renderings, but I have full confidence that Houston will have a Spaceport. Also take a look at the Spaceport in Midland,TX. It's being built in phases.

The current design looks great! It blends in nicely with the rest of the skyline.

Here's hoping for financing for the new 24 story tower!

Any updates on the new Methodist Tower?

The Skyhouse in Austin also has it's signature as well it lights up.

It just went from demolishion to U/C just like that!

Another crane added to the downtown area. I was thinking, Houston could surpass Austin in downtown residential construction. We only have 4 residential towers U/C with the rest either office or hotel.

Seems like there needs to be new management. If the people that work there don't like what they do, it's easy find another job.

I know this is a Randall Davis project, but lets give this guy some credit. If he can pull this off, I will have the up most respect for him. Houston lacks high end development and is now getting the attention it deserves. For other projects like The Marlowe, and The Windsor. I have no doubt in my mind that both those towers will break ground here very soon.

I have full confidence in this tower.

Man I wish this building was going up. While it wouldn't have made any impact on the skyline, the sunken lobby area next to the street would have been a welcome addition. Seems like every building cycle there are great proposals that bite the dust. In the 80s it was most of Houston Center and BSWT. I guess it's only to be expected.

It's going to get built. Skanska isn't putting millions of dollars for some parking garage, right now there waiting for a tenant to sign and could be in the works for some company as we speak.

I'm going to talk with the developer and simply say just build the d*** thing. This fight has been going on way to long. Screw these anti highrise nimbies, if you don't like it should have never moved to Houston.

Love it. But wish they could have added brick to the parking garage adjacent to the new 2 building that's U/C. It would help blend it in.

What, it's completely natural to be on the toilet while you look down on people. Remember your the king of your throne. Use it!

?

It's pretty much the same size as almost every other block downtown... (and our blocks are relatively small)

From a perspective, it looked pretty big. I believe Houston blocks are a little larger than Austin if I'm not mistaken.

I drove past the site last week when I was Houston. Man is that block massive! Also as I stated before, Skanska will build Capitol Tower as they are committed to the project. It's just a matter of when.

Build it Houston. We need our Spaceport for the Space City.

I'll take the Sinatra! Because Houston is "my kind of town!"

I say it's on life support. Not dead yet. We still have hope people!

A good power wash to that graffiti and mold will do wonders, heck I'll do it myself for free.

It's rising!!!

I know right. Skanska should just build the tower, by the time it's complete or perhaps before it's complete they would have already landed a tenant.
