Texasota Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I think that has to be Downtown's worst angle. Parking garages, surface lots, and the ugliest office towers. Except for Humble/Exxon. Nobody say anything bad about that building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I drove downtown this morning for the first time in months (I live in another state) and to be blunt: this tower is huge. I didn't think I'd be that shocked to see how dominating this skyscraper is! Wow! What an impact!!! On another note, can somebody please tell me how to post pics here from my phone?! When I try to attach it says the files are too large but I've posted pics from my phone before. #Frustrated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw all the new high rises and we were very impressed. Downtown is densifying. The 609 especially dominates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinsanity02 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I agree. Great photo of our beautiful downtown. The 609 is turning out better than I imagined.Too bad the parking lot north of the old Chronicle building can't be made a park and the old chronicle site a high rise residential. Nevertheless things are moving nicely. Have my fingers crossed on the 40 story residential near the Hess building. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
