Avossos Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 if marlowe has the presales they'll kick off - not worried about that. i was told that TC's tower was moving forward a couple of months ago but we all know how these things go - 40-stories is a big project in a "slowing" market so no one should be shocked if they are waiting it out awhile longer. in addition, almost every project gets delayed in some capacity so again it shouldn't come as even a little surprise here. Guys, just think how delayed Hines' Market Square Tower was... 2 quarter delay? It is a big project and there still tons of construction going on, so I am not suprised to see the delay... I just hope that we are full speed ahead still and playing the "on hold" game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate99 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The latest announcement on TC’s tower was released not that long ago when it would have been known if the Marriott’s construction office trailers were going to be moved in time to meet the Q2 date. The trailers are still there and show no sign of packing up any time soon. It’s not to say that there is not a delay or other problem with the projects, but after watching this stuff for a few years, I don’t take the start dates seriously at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstontexasjack Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 When is Marrott scheduled to top out? That seem to be a good symbolic time to get those trailers off the lot and get a move on this tower. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cspwal Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Could the delay be related to the hotel construction? If that's delayed, they can't really start building until those trailers are gone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) Camden isnt massive?This is a project by my boy TC aka T Crow aka Trammell CrowSo no I don't have doubts, it's just the nature of the constitution industry.

Urbannizer Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Could the delay be related to the hotel construction? If that's delayed, they can't really start building until those trailers are gone I think TC just decided to wait for the Marriott Marquis to wrap up (Sept. 2016 completion) as the market conditions are expected to improve by that time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTHONYHTOWN Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 its delayed due to the hotel construction by the new time frame that has been given the trailers should move out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Kinda confused why people think trailers are going to be the big thing stopping this from moving forward... that's probably the least of their concern. Honestly, they should go the route of Marlowe... turn this into a condominium. There is a market in downtown for condos. We talked about this last week...CB is seeing broad oversupply in the multi-family market in the Houston area. We will begin to see more and more incentives from newer apartment complexes and may actually see rents begin to flatten by the end of the year/beginning of next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Town Man Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I count 34 stories in that rendering. Looks like this may have shrunk.Seems to have as many floors above the garage as the rendering posted here in April 2014. I'm not sure I see 39 floors in either of them, though.
