Nate99 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015  Also, any local violin, guitar, drum, singing ever going on downtown outside from randoms? We have this violin player in Daisy Dukes outside my work sometimes, she is actually really good. There is a guy that plays various musical instruments on the Milam and Capitol of Jones Hall fairly regularly. This may sound dismissive or snobbish, but I haven’t heard him actually play anything I recognize, or that resembles a composed piece of music. Maybe he’s just learning or I'm just catching him warming up, but he doesn't seem that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Maybe about the size of San Diego skyline but much denser. They are adding 4 new towers and have spread quite a ways south toward NRG stadium. Its way passed Old Spainish Trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I didn't ever think the rendering was that "great"? It's much better than how I think this will turn out. From the most recent construction pics you can see not as much glass is being used as shown in the rendering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate99 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 The rendering is at least flopped with the recesses being on the left from either side. I guess we're in for a surprise one way or another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_cuevas713 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 That cooling plan looks like it belongs in the burbs. I have no idea why that thing has such small narrow sidewalks. Anyways I can't wait for this project to finish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rechlin Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I've noticed it in Europe and Asia for quite a few years. Maybe it's just new here? But then again, until recently there just hasn't been as much development here to notice whether they did it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rechlin Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 FYI, Urbannizer, you linked directly to the current image so it will change every time this page is loaded. If you wanted to link to an image from a particular time, save it to something like imgur and link to that to ensure it never changes. Glad to see someone else is watching my camera!
