Sanjorade Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Town homes, I'm guessing. Too bad they couldn't get the whole block. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think townhomes are usually listed as singly family plats. This one is up as unrestricted. Leeland Place is likely condos or multi-family. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eado didn't really get to take advantage of boom in apartments like the other neighborhoods. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multi family will hold more people than town homes. More people = more density = more retail. Also means more traffic but generally this is why people see it as a good thing to have more multi family. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that is a bar, theatre, bowling alley, or concert hall - not sure. Regardless, it’ll be welcome in the neighborhood. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanjorade Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) The developer is trying to acquire the last piece of the block. It’s listed at $425,000 for 5k sq ft. Stalemate. Edit: Looks like the price is now $375k. Edited July 5, 2019 by Sanjorade 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanjorade Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 This lot is being cleared. The entire block has not been acquired yet, though. Anyone have any info on what is going up here? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any info on what is going up here? Finally. This block has to be one of the strangest in all of Houston. There were maybe one or two portable storage sheds on site, with a playground (?) and a bunch of 18 wheeler cabs parked there all the time. I have no clue what the property was being used for. Meanwhile, the one holdout lot is fenced in with a metal gate up front, like somebody was thinking of putting up a single-family home and then just decided not to at the last minute. So weird. Whatever happens to this block will be a very welcome improvement. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanjorade Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Bulldozers on site today. I think the last 5,000 sq ft lot was purchased by the developer. Waiting to hear back from the broker. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a portion of the block fenced in (the wood fence in the picture) that looks like it isn't part of the construction. The current construction looks like 2 different things going on - one section has the sand foundation and the other looks like it could be a driveway for townhomes?

I know Leeland Place is the name of the parcel, but maybe include an address? Possibly change it to 2201 Leeland St | EaDo or 2201 Leeland St | East Downtown since this won't be named Leeland Place?@Triton @Urbannizer @Subdude @intencity77 @Montrose1100 6 hours ago, CrockpotandGravel said: https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/38007-leeland-place/?do=findComment&comment=599589 https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/38007-leeland-place/?do=findComment&comment=600788 Maybe the barbecue restaurant replacing the proposed townhomes site at 2201 Leeland St is Willow's Texas BBQ? Willow's Texas BBQ was a pop-up restaurant, then a food truck. Pitmaster Willow Villarreal stopped food truck operations recently. He also put up his truck for sale not long ago in preparation to open a barbecue restaurant somewhere in East Downtown ( EaDo ) or the Second Ward or Greater East End. My guess, he's opening here. I'm not 100% certain. I agree, though it seems you answered your own question. We just don't know what on earth is going on here. Nothing but rumors thus far. Lets just see what happens. At that point the title can change. Would be nice for some info to be out there. Looks like we need to do a little bit more digging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
