wxman Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 So is there any building in existence today that remotely looks like the one planned for Houston? Can you share that pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brijonmang Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Well you may not be able to show off the render at this time, but is it closer to the 50 story height like originally posted in the title or 37 like in the write up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister X Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 As long as we are asking questions: What is the color and the texture? Glass? Which direction is the sail pointed? Maybe we can get enough description that we wont even need an official rendering. We can make our own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Bump because lockmat knows what it looks like but won't tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 I gave some descriptions earlier. Swtsig confirmed them. I think an edge of the "sail" may light up at night.Two people I have showed it to like it better than Hines' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Anything like this? I didn't see that before. The curve is actually on the west side when looking at the site from north. The building is rectangular but the sail/curved part protrudes out on the north side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston? Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 So when will you reveal this building? It sounds like it will have an interesting look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 So when will you reveal this building? It sounds like it will have an interesting look.I can't reveal it. All I did was email the stream address listed on their website and request to see it. The rep kindly warned me of prosecution if it was made public or got in the wrong hands.It is part boring part interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston? Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Cool. So when will it be legally available? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 It seems like only if they break ground. I guess they have their reasons for not releasing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed_Tx Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 kinda looks like a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Town Man Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It is part boring part interesting. Should fit right in with most recent downtown construction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 For those who I got to show the rendering to at the happy hour, where does it rank vs hines and Skanska's towers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brijonmang Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 For those who I got to show the rendering to at the happy hour, where does it rank vs hines and Skanska's towers? I liked it better than both of those towers, also liked it better than the recently exposed 38-story building. It also has the best location from a skyline impacting perspective. Is it really 50 stories? I only glanced through the text but I thought it said 41 stories? (That was after a few beers though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I have was half way kidding. Everybody keeps talking about this rending and doing side nudges to one another while the rest of us are totally in the dark. I wanna see, too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
