Angostura Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 25-ft BL along Kirby? Why not request a setback variance to match West Ave? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swtsig Posted December 8, 2017 Author Share Posted December 8, 2017 can you have patio space within the 25' setback? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasota Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I mean, there are patios on Main Street with a 0' setback. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players Theater, sits across from a Whole Foods Market and Bed Bath and Beyond. It is near Gables' West Ave mixed-use development, Hanover's Upper Kirby apartment project and Stolz Partners' Giorgetti luxury condo project.  oh wow, that's where this is! I've been confused for a week  Project seems to go a long with the expanding Upper Kirby. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Anybody else notice the vandalism at the site? The front entrance window was broken. There is broken glass, that hasn't been picked up in 2 weeks. Could be theft as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Was walking the Hanover and Giorgetti street. Talked with some people who lived nearby. They were mentioning how beautiful the tree formation is. They were wondering if HEB will remove the trees. We will see!

To H-E-B's credit, they preserved many of the beautiful oaks that graced the Wilshire Apartments at their Montrose location at the expense of adding several parking spaces. Although parking can be tight at that location, I think the oaks add immensely to the attractiveness of the site, and created a measure of good will among the neighbors. I certainly hope they take the same approach at the proposed new location. As you say, we will see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainJilliams Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 They need to just tear down that strip of buildings along W Alabama. With the Hanover going up behind the site, they're sticking out like a sore thumb. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 HBJ’s 2019 Landmark Awards: Land Deal winner and finalists https://bakerkatz.com/hbjs-2019-landmark-awards-land-deal-winner-and-finalists/  Winner: H-E-B’s Land Purchase at Kirby Boulevard and West Alabama Street Developer: Midway/H-E-B Seller: Tommy Dickey / Tom Lipincott Attorney: Greg Erwin Broker: Tim Dosch and David Marshall (represented seller); Baker Katz (represented H-E-B)  Quote  San Antonio-based H-E-B Grovery Co. closed on its purchase of land near the northwest intersection of Kirby Drive and West Alabama Street in February 2018, HBJ reported a year ago. Houston-based firms Dosch Marshall Real Estate and Baker Katz represented the seller and H-E-B, respectively.  The grocery giant has been mum about its plans for the land, but it is partnering with Houston-based Midway Cos. to develop the property. Midway did not share any information about H-E-B at the time, and a timeline for development was not available.  The Upper Kirby area is a hot spot of grocery activity, with Whole Foods Market just across Kirby Drive and Trader Joe’s half a mile east on West Alabama. Additionally, H-E-B’s Montrose store is a mile east on West Alabama, and its Buffalo Speedway store is less than two miles away.   2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main grocery store is the Montrose HEB and because it's so popular the only time I will venture in there is when I get up early on Sunday morning before the crowds overwhelm it. Both these other stores will take a lot of the pressure off my store. I actually set my alarm to get up around 6:00 -6:30 am just to get my shopping in before my bicycle ride. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually had to take Allen Parkway to Dunlavy just to get there. So I think it's safe to say that that Montrose HEB will be getting some relief soon.... but I think HEB is also looking towards the future and sees the large amount of incoming cond and multi-family developments in the area and are planning for that future growth as well.   5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Saw a fence around the buildings of the project except on the western portion where they are letting construction workers for Hanover RO and Giorgetti park.
