cspwal Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I mean either Block 334 finishes and they get old once it's done, or it takes forever, making the jokes ever sweeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonIsHome Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I would say that an additional 6 floors on block 334 would look sweet, but I don't have the patience to wait another 3 years for that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cspwal Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 There was some bracing that I spotted in a trailer earlier. They are also currently assembling a crawler crane for the parking garage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed_Tx Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 They have a crane up building the parking garage. This will definitely open before block 337. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cspwal Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Skyhouse Houston (the one next door) started on the garage late January and finished it late March. So this one should be done by Christmas - and block 334 built 4 wood frame floors in the same amount of time. They might still beat out Skyhouse though depending on how far along Block 334 is on interior finishing - Skyhouse Houston took another 2 months to open after the garage finished.

When it clears it will mean the Fairfield residential is on the move.It will make the 7th residential building in close proximity to each other in the downtown.It will make a huge impact on the area. I was standing on that lot tonight and looking around it is a canyon surrounded by development. I love the view of exponentially and the chevron buildings from this lot.
