mollusk Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Can you pop down to the underground easy from the street if say a coffee shop is near by? I can, and you can too. It's more a matter of knowing how to get down there, and where to go once there, than anything else. However, in the evening and at night the heat abates, so the street level isn't nearly as punishing as it can be at, say, 2 pm immediately after a brief rain (when the pavement is literally steaming). I really think we ought have a giant statue of Willis H. Carrier somewhere around town, but even I will sit out on a downtown patio and enjoy a bevvie or three on a summertime evening. Back on topic - Nice pics, Nate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I drove by the site at lunchtime and I like the fact that this building with its curved corners and angles in its footprint will break up the monotony of all of the square and rectangular shapes. I know it's unpopular to some but I think the setbacks from the curb will also allow for some interesting views that were lost in the boxy Foleys building. I can't call it Macys since they were in it a relatively short time and it was built for Foleys. It's not going to show up on the west skyline but it should interact really well with scale of the buildings surrounding it including the future Alesandra. This is going to be fun to watch as it gets up there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as huge proponent of Downtown revitalization, I'll believe it when I see it. I work next door at 1000 Main and that is one stretch of block I absolutely hate to walk. You can literally smell the piss inbetween the corner store and the Sakowitz garage. The smell is so bad, I'd rather walk in the Southbound lane of Main if I have to go to Pavilions. http://youtu.be/LPYGSa2mHFYHowever, there'll be 8000 sq ft of retail space at 1111 Travis so I can see a smaller Macy's there.

And it would be a great addition to making downtown a more all around livable/enjoyable destination/neighborhood.Historically, Downtown Houston is a proven retail market. Before Uptown/Galleria ever existed, all the big retailers...Foley's (later Macy's), Battlestein's, Palais Royal, Neiman Marcus, Sakowitz, etc., were all Downtown. The Galleria and Northwest Mall lured them all away over the last 50 years (with the old/tired Macy's being the last and most recent to fold), but today millions more live in Houston as the city booms, especially Downtown. It's really a no-brainer. The mayor and her Retail Task Force are smart to bring in Bloomingdale's and a relocated Macy's, and others to the Dallas Street Retail Corridor Project. Her initiative is very similar to Michigan Avenue in Downtown Chicago. And when you factor this plus GreenStreets, it's a home run and gives Downtown Houston the world class retail it desperately needs and deserves. Houston will have world class retail Downtown and Uptown...two different exciting retail experiences.With tens of thousands of new residents filling these luxury developments, legions of Downtown city/state/federal government workers there daily, hundreds of thousands of Fortune 500 corporate employees filling the towers every day, and an expanded convention district with numerous new hotels bringing millions more people Downtown each year, a quality retail district is imperative. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the contrary, many Downtown employees ARE Fortune 500 employees (rank-and-file, executive and highly-paid) as many Fortune 500 corporations have their world headquarters in Downtown Houston. Moreover, it gets busier by the day.At the end of the day, the market is there...it's clear what they're trying to do with this project, and Houston's CBD can definitely support it. Downtown needs it...let's hope they're successful. Edited September 1, 2014 by HTOWN LIVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lithiumaneurysm Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I certainly think the Task Force's effort and vision are great, but I have to remain skeptical of any sort of plan to create a pedestrian-oriented environment that doesn't identify the ridiculous surface parking lot problem as its primary obstacle. Few large U.S. cities have as pervasive an issue with vacant downtown lots as Houston. These are just enormous blank spaces in an otherwise urban environment that do a damn good job at killing any sort of pedestrian vitality. There's a reason why the Market Square area and Midtown are redeveloping at faster rates than the southern side of the Convention District and the entire southeast quadrant of Downtown. Unless some serious infill occurs - even if the buildings are only one or two stories tall - those parking lots will present an enormous roadblock to creating a comprehensive urban shopping district. GreenStreet is nice, but you're not getting much of an urban experience in a complex bounded by office buildings, parking garages and surface lots. Creating a shopping environment in this area is still going to be difficult, even with the presence of some retail. Forming organic street life is an immense challenge.

Surface parking lots in Downtown Houston are quickly vanishing. Most major metros have too many CBD surface lots. The difference is that no other city is booming like Houston, and our lots are going bye-bye very fast. 50 years ago, pedestrian vitality and Downtown's comprehensive retail scene was booming...all the great retailers were there. The mayor's Dallas Street Retail Corridor Project is neither difficult nor a challenge, rather a masterful plan...a plan to restore world class retail to Downtown Houston, again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
