tigereye Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Is that the rendering? I thought that one got canceled ?It is the cancelled Mill Creek plan. I just posted to show the land involved. JLB Partners bought the same site from Mill Creek back in January. Judging from their portfolio, I think JLB will deliver us a nicer looking project than Mill Creek's Eado Station plan.

Texasota Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hmmm. Mill Creek's plan was aggressively urban and contemporary. Looking at JLB's website, there are a few decent looking projects, but most of them are mediocre. There was a purity to Mill Creek's design that's lacking from JLB's stuff.

Mill Creek's design perfectly compliments BBVA Compass Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More importantly, any idea on street level retail facing Dowling & BBVACS? One of the few times where its made almost a necessity. Been going to Dynamo games for 3 years now as a season ticket holder, not once did i even bother to go to this side of the stadium. PLEASE put some retail here!

NenaE Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 The landscape architecture/ pool ^^^ seems to out-shine the architecture, IMHO. With the exception of those old-looking handrails. The apartment style falls short, looks plain, not modern. About the EaDo, yeah, I'm bringing it up again, it Still sounds nasty. Putting "station" on the end just sounds bizarre. That EaDo Station design looked harsh to me, but somehow "looked in place" with the stadium. I would like to have seen a group of tall pines around the walkway, perpendicular to it, with more overall landscaping. Maybe a water feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fernz Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Might as well. Most residents care a lot more about the pool than they do about the architecture of the building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alec Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Isn't that for parking?Oops, I meant pedestal, not wrap. Anyway, the rendering / photo of prior work shows 4 floors total. If that's correct, all the floors are concrete. Of course you could be correct and the 4 concrete floors are just parking, but I think that would mean 8-10 floors overall. Either way, I like it a bit better than the average 3 wooden floors on 2 concrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
