  3. The building at 1200 Timberloch Place on the Anadarko campus in The Woodlands has been awarded LEED Silver status. http://www.costar.com/News/Article.aspx?id=8369B426B47BEBD0BB99288CF5C7FEC7
  4. So its official, the Houston Area will be getting it's first Ritz-Carlton Residences. It's going to be in The Woodlands off Lake Woodlands. I would have preferred it to be in Houston, but maybe this will catalyze a possible future Ritz Carlton hotel for Houston. Either way, great news! https://communityimpact.com/houston/the-woodlands/development/2023/10/12/the-ritz-carlton-residences-announced-for-lake-woodlands-area/
  5. This would pretty sweet if built, and it's design is different from the usual Woodlands building. Designed by Pickard Chilton http://www.bizjourna...allery&img_no=1 http://www.bizjourna...-woodlands.html
  6. U.S. grants Lexicon $1.9 million for antiterrorism research By: BURTON SPEAKMAN, Villager staff 01/05/2005 Lexicon Genetics Incorporated (Nasdaq: LEXG) was awarded a $1.9 million grant for the discovery of drug targets that could provide resistance to ricin poisoning from the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases for a one-year initial term. "Lexicon's proprietary gene knockout technology, coupled with our comprehensive system for analyzing the physiological effects of genes in mammals, can provide the Army with important information in its effort to combat the harmful effects of bioterrorism and biological warfare agents," said Arthur T. Sands, M.D., Ph.D., company president and chief executive officer. According to the Centers for Disease Control, ricin is a water-soluble poison made from the waste produced during the processing of the castor bean and can be produced in pellet, powder or mist form. The goal of the program is to ultimately identify target agents and to develop protective drugs, Sands said. Lexicon will complete the testing for 250 genes within the term the grant. Genes will be tested to evaluate their potential to block the body's reaction to ricin, he said. This technology does not work in the same manner as current treatments for either diseases or poisons. Current treatments work to eliminate toxins or infections from the body, Sands said. Drugs developed through this gene therapy will keep the toxin or infection from reacting with the agent it uses to damage the body. "Any agent - whether it be a poison or a virus - must use an agent to interact with the body," he said. Currently it is unclear what kind of reaction ricin produces that infects the body. Another advantage to gene treatment is that toxins and diseases can mutate, making current treatments invalid, Sands said. This would not be the case for drugs that affect the target agent. "Genes within the human body don't mutate," he said. "This could be the beginning of a whole new class of therapy." "We believe the methods we will be using to find host factors for ricin resistance could have broader applications for other toxins or infectious agents," Sands said. This is one of the initial steps that could bring the new therapeutic treatments to wider use, he added. The grant from the U.S. Army is the first grant that Lexicon Genetics has ever received, Sands said. Burton Speakman may be reached at bspeakman@mail.hcnonline.net.
  7. New 208 acre park planned for the Creekside Park neighborhood. It may eventually connect to the Spring Creek Greenway https://www.houstonchronicle.com/neighborhood/woodlands/article/woodlands-south-gosling-park-phase-i-18395268.php "The park will also be the largest Woodlands park completed in Harris County once completed, with opportunity for passive and active recreation. The county requires Phase I to include initial engineering, wetland and flood plain analysis, cultural surveys and archaeological surveys, analyzing endangered species and measuring water currents in the area."

  9. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/howard-hughes-holding-parent-company-new-houston-18204344.php "Howard Hughes Corp., the real estate development firm behind Bridgeland and The Woodlands, announced it is forming a new parent company that could help it fund future investment opportunities. The company, which is based in The Woodlands, said it plans to create the Howard Hughes Holding Corp., a new parent company that will take its place on the New York Stock Exchange. The ticker symbol, HHC, will remain the same. "
  10. Thought there may have been a thread for this but I guess one wasn't created before. Around this time in 2021 there was a mention that three locations would be opening in the area - in Humble, Conroe & The Woodlands by the following year. https://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/06-16-21-bojangles-fried-chicken-fast-food-restaurant-houston-locations-humble-conroe-the-woodlands/ Not sure what happened to those three locations, but the twitter account for the Bojangles Houston group mentions a location opening on August 15th. A tweet indicates it will be the location in "Richmond" at 19310 W. Belfort - Just west of the intersection of the Grand Parkway and Harlem Road. This piece from the Dallas Morning News on the store that opened in Euless indicates at least 10 more are coming to the Houston area, per the company's CEO https://www.dallasnews.com/food/restaurant-news/2023/06/27/as-bojangles-fried-chicken-opens-in-texas-ceo-says-20-stores-are-in-d-fws-future/ "We just signed a franchisee in Houston for a 10-store commitment. But we also have a company location in Houston. So we’ll have a company base in Dallas [with the four D-FW restaurants already announced] and a company base in Houston."
  11. https://communityimpact.com/houston/the-woodlands/development/2023/05/02/proposed-spring-creek-dam-costs-reduced-to-179m/ "In the revised calculations, the height of the Birch Creek dam will reduced by 10 feet, the spillway will be reduced by 5 feet, and the inundation area will be reduced by almost 300 acres from original estimates. Walnut Creek's height will be reduced by 12 feet, the spillway by 6 feet, and the inundation area by 500 acres, he said. These changes will raise the BCR for Birch Creek from 0.45 to 2.03 and Walnut Creek from 0.29 to 1.88, according to Barrett. "By reducing the size of the dams, we saved costs there," Barrett said. "We also reduced the land we inundated, which means less land that we need to acquire." Barrett said the more difficult problem to solve will include working with developers currently building on dam sites. A proposed residential development is slated to build on 300 acres within the inundation area on Birch Creek. At Walnut Creek, a solar farm has already begun construction on 100 acres of panels in the inundation area."
  12. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2023/04/19/houston-lpga-chevron-championship-2023.html?cx_testId=40&cx_testVariant=cx_27&cx_artPos=1#cxrecs_s "After being hosted in Rancho Mirage, California, for its first 51 years, the tournament is taking place at The Club at Carlton Woods in The Woodlands this year April 20-23. As the LPGA was looking to take the Chevron Championship to the next level, the association took a lot of suggestions into consideration, including moving the tournament to a new location, said Ricki Lasky, LPGA chief tour business and operations officer. Once the LPGA and Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) looked at potential new venues, Lasky said Houston felt like home for the tournament.
  13. Always offering the very latest, The Woodlands Mall recently welcomed five new, sought-after retailers to the shopping center. Additionally, a number of retailers have been moving to new locations and improving shopping environments for visitors. Recent additions to the list of retailers include: Oil & Vinegar, described as a fashion food for food, opened earlier this year on the lower level near the Courtyard Shops. A fun shopping experience for the novice or the gourmet cook, the shelves at Oil & Vinegar are filled with treats such as Italian white truffle oil, raspberry vinegar, pastas, relish, dip and more. Sona MedSpa, a nationally known luxury spa recently opened in the office component of the shopping center. Sona provides laser hair removal and anti-aging services. The Woodlands Mall is only the second Houston location for one of the nation
  14. Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital will break ground on a new, seven-story patient tower early next year. The cost of the project is roughly $104 million. http://www.ultimatewoodlands.com/2009/10/hospital-plans-new-104-million-facility
  15. Currently out for bid. The building was previously home to Sweet Tomatoes.
  16. swamplot reports: Anadarko Petroleum announced to its employees last week that the company is ready to begin constructing a second office tower just west of its existing headquarters building in The Woodlands Town Center, a source tells Swamplot. The new building will fit on the corner of Lake Robbins Dr. and Woodloch Forest Dr., just south of The Woodlands Mall, and like the current tower will be visible from miles south on I-45. At the announced 31 stories, the new structure would be one floor "shorter taller." http://swamplot.com/...rst/2012-01-17/ works for me!

  19. One of the things I've been kind of curious about is the history of The Woodlands, Texas, which doesn't seem to be very well-documented since it was only built in the 1970s. Some tidbits I've gleaned include the Wharf, which was actually built (something I doubted initially) and contained an ice rink and boutique shops. It was eventually renovated into a conference/resort center, but I have seen no pictures of the inside as it was. An article I read on George Mitchell mentioned how The Woodlands didn't have a lot of grocery stores (if any) at first, but the Chron refers to (through article searches) that an upscale local grocery chain called Jamail's sold out two stores to Randalls in the late 1980s or early 1990s. Apparently the shopping center at Sawdust and Interstate 45 had both a Wal-Mart and a Kmart in there at some point (the Kmart being one of the extra-small late 1970s prototypes). Is there a place where I could find out more of the history of these types of things?
