j_cuevas713 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Damnit, why does there have to be a Skyhouse dallas!? I'm sorry but I'm not very fond of our neighbor to the north. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Huge Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 You are complaining...Maybe a lil about the ocean of parking lots but not about skyhouse or its developers.Also if you read just two posts above yours you will see my concerns were quelled.

Howard Huge Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 is half of it up to floor 7? kind of hard to tell.Sorry, I was on Fannin so there was that tree in the way but, yea they are up to at least 7, I think the ground floor is a double floor.

brijonmang Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Sorry, I was on Fannin so there was that tree in the way but, yea they are up to at least 7, I think the ground floor is a double floor. They have poured the floor of the seventh floor and are starting to form the the eighth. They have installed a concrete pump that you can see in Howard's picture. I'm guessing the pump truck's days are numbered. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijonmang Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Any clue when they're going to start on the parking garage? All of the other Skyhouses haven't started on their parking garages until the buildings were topped out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Haha i barely noticed it myself. I wish SkyHouse had the same floor heights as HH. SkyHouse may end up being shorter and it has 3 more floors.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston19514 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 ^ That and Houston House was built at a time when ceilings were 8 feet high. Skyhouse will probably have higher ceilings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylejack Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) Really that short.And the 1 bed units are uncomfortably cramped. Yeah I looked at them. The 1 bed plus den corner units seemed like a good size and sweet patios, but $$$ especially after the renovation. Edit: Looks like they renovated out the dens to put in a dining room and they go for $1675+ now. Edited August 23, 2013 by kylejack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After renovations they were asking too much for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
