I am wondering about traffic flow. If you are traveling north on Waugh you cannot turn left (west) on D'Amico. There is no where to u-turn beyond D'Amico on northbound Waugh. Is there a way to see if the city is planning to add a turn lane to northbound Waugh at the corner of D'Amico. Otherwise, they will be directing. a tremendous amount of traffic into the neighborhood west of the new building. The drawing that @Paco Jones included only shows the building front view and it shows an entry and exist on to Waugh. I wonder if he knows if there is also and exit/entry on Rosine St.?

hindesky Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) I wonder if this will be another entrance to the parking garage on Rosine St? Probably not since the brand new electrical pole is partially blocking it. D'Amico side. Edited March 13, 2022 by hindesky 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post hindesky Posted July 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2022 Associated Concrete Contractors worker I talked with said the concrete/rebar floors are done. Metal framing with smaller concrete floors from 8th floor up. He also said they got the contract to do 3 more jobs including the Fairfield Waugh and they should be starting in the next 3 months on some of them. https://www.associatedconcretecontractors.com 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) He seemed amazed that I knew which projects ACC was doing concrete work at, East Bend Fairfield and the Laura East River. I told him HAIF is where I keep informed and he googled it. That is when he brought up the future contracts they have in the works.

The challenge is that LRT takes up about three lanes, or 1.5 from each side minimum, sometimes more. Main St downtown was three lanes each way, now it's one lane. Six lanes of traffic down to two. Washington Ave and Westheimer Rd are size constrained, and they both carry a shotload of traffic. Can you imagine if Westheimer lost any lanes? The peasants would revolt!

How about a bi-directional West Dallas ↔︎ Montrose ↔︎ Westheimer ↔︎ Bagby circulator trolley bus? That would serve a greater number of transit-friendly people in an area that needs more transit. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
