So I don't know if this means anything but Iron Accents has moved out and has a sign on the door. Portions of the concrete have been removed here and in front of the building next door for what I assume is plumbing and gas disconnect. Bavarian Motor Specialists still seems to be in operation.

Houston Historic Retail does a weekly demolition report and the website shows Accents In Steel is on the latest report. The pics I took about 3 weeks ago seemed like they were about to demo this building.

Accents in Steel is gone. Excavator has moved over to the office building on Waugh. Bavarian Machine Specialist has moved all their stuff out. I was able to talk with the guys by the office. They said Mill Creek has down sized the building to 18 stories with 6 stories of parking  :(. They weren't able to start removing the office building yet until the power line and transformers in the picture are moved. That electrical line serves many business south of there and will be right in the middle of the project

Yes, basic wrap-around apartments surrounded by parking lots with a dairy queen and taco bell.

Guys I talked to said it was going to be downscaled to 16 stories high, bottom 6 floors will be parking so I don't think it's going to be a wrap. There isn't enough space for a wrap.

The other renditions posted here are no longer in play, one was when Hines was going to build here and the other was a possible rendition when Modera first purchased the lots.

16 floors is still a decent sized building even if its not a skyscraper. It will still have a pretty serious presence and add a lot of units to that one corner, making that area feel and function more in an urban way.

There hasn't been much going on here lately. Couple weeks ago I saw some guys digging a trench and placing large sized conduit on the south side by the townhomes. Now there are 10 new electrical poles and some catch basins. Couple of guys doing some surveying work near Waugh.
