s3mh Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 The developer is floating a re-design with all the retail fronting 11th st with parking in the rear. Big changes to the facade as well. I cannot get pictures from Nextdoor to load on here. Sorry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s3mh Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 If you did not click on the swamplot story, here is the rendering for the coffee shop. Very nice. Looks like a little train depot. Now the "Heights Station" name actually works. Be sure to email HAHC when this gets back on the agenda and let them know your thoughts on the revised design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAG Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Much better but the architectural design doesn't match the neighborhood at all. Wish they'd update it to more closely resemble the Lola strip center across the street - that would help tie it in in a more timeless fashion.

Texasota Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I'm not sure I agree. The Lola strip mall is cool, but it's not really representative of the Heights. The rendering indicates that this will be painted brick, and the general massing and window openings are pretty similar to the traditional retail buildings on 11th, 19th etc. The only out-of-place element is the painted aluminum, but I'm not sure that particularly bothers me.

Angostura Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) That looks phenomenal. If it ends up anything close to that, I think a lot of people will be happy. Yale from 5th to 12th could become a pretty interesting corridor. There's a lot of existing and upcoming zero- or low-setback construction. I'd actually like to see more street parking on Yale, making it effectively a 2-lane street, to make the pedestrian experience seem a little safer.

Still no Audis in the renderings - although maybe that's in homage to the Heights's blue collar to middle class roots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
