Texasota Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 eh, no. Part of what makes Williams Tower iconic is the fact that it basically stands alone. 609 Main will be a very nice tower that helps densify the skyline, but it will be a long way from iconic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Howard Huge Posted November 14, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) This will at least be sloped.True indeed. I forgot how glorious this building is going to look when complete. It will break up the monotony of the skyline, adding a slight jagged edge. God bless Gerald Hines.

Howard Huge Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Yeah. I love it.I wish the high point on the roof (the unoccupied area) was just a little higher and sharper, maybe with spires/poles like that med center building that looks like a sailboat.

Twinsanity02 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Quite an addition to the canyon effect on Texas. The Catalyst, the Alexan downtown, and 500 Crawford also add to this. Thanks for the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the photo. If the Great Southwest building conversion happens and the other little building on the Magnolia block becomes a Hyatt Place, Texas will be more or less "complete" from the bayou all the way to MMP apart from the Hogan Allnoch (sp?) building. Maybe Uncle Sam will sell out and the Federal Detention Center will be converted to a hotel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
