https://protecttanglewood.com/updates/ Location The Watermark Tanglewood (1661 Tanglewood Blvd.) Watermark Retirement Communities recently mailed a selective announcement to property owners in the area of a proposed 20 story, 62-year and older luxury community along with a marketing survey and invitation to a focus group study. The proposed site is owned by WMJK Ltd. The THA Board is still trying to gather information and understand if any alternative options might be available, such as potentially raising capital for private purchase of the property and converting it to a green space. It appears Watermark is currently in the due diligence and marketing phase for this development. Further communication will be forwarded as facts are obtained. Anyone interested in attending the Planning Seminar/Focus Group on Tuesday, April 23, 2019 may call the market survey company ProMatura at 800-201-1483.

ug. 28, 2004, 3:33AM Galleria area back in favor With toll road and cheaper rent, area is becoming attractive again By NANCY SARNOFF Copyright 2004 Houston Chronicle Despite the traffic snarls caused by freeway construction, the Galleria-area office market is edging back in favor with tenants. ADVERTISEMENT According to a space demand survey conducted by PM Realty Group, a Houston-based real estate services firm, more than 58 percent of the respondents said the Galleria area is one of the top three office markets deemed most attractive to tenants. Downtown and Westchase were also cited as top markets. That's almost double what was reported last year, said Doug Little of PM Realty, which surveyed the top 20 commercial realty firms in Houston. "The existing construction is not as bad as people thought it was going to be," said Little. "People are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel." Over the past several years, large tenants have moved out of the Galleria area in favor of the high-profile central business district or the suburbs of west Houston. Office buildings in the market are 24.7 percent vacant, including space available for sublease, according to Cushman & Wakefield, a brokerage firm. But as the traffic starts moving a bit more freely, helped in part by the new Westpark Tollway, tenants are giving the area a second look. The Galleria's reasonable rental rates and large blocks of space also help, Little said. The survey revealed other statistics:

I was reading the newspaper The Bellaire Texan dated June 8, 1950 and discovered William Harrington's residential home. William G. Farrington, 5345 Woodway, president of the Houston Public Schools Board, brought on a walkout by two members of the board (Ewing Werlein and Dr. Henry A. Peterson) when he called for the appointment of Attorney Leon Jaworsky, 3722 Rio Vista, to the board to fill the unexpired term of C.W. MacPhail.

Any chance of this retail center being redeveloped soon? Prime stretch of land for an old strip center.
