H-Town Man Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I think I like the building that was there before more than the highrise. Oh well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Tower crane going up this weekend, an Alliance company worker show me the EDI rendering and it's going to be the 8 story with a crown, 2 year project. The tower crane is going to have two electric signs on the rear right side of the crane, "Alliance" and "Texas A & M" since it's an Aggie led company. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 More from the tower crane installation, the Alliance worker showed me his rendition and I showed him this one and he said "that's it" his rendition was from a different angle but look like the same building. Alliance also built the building on 20th St, this tower crane came from that site. Hopefully someone can catch the signs lit up tonight when the sun goes down. It should be visible from 59/69 going westbound as the crane will be weather vained since the wind is currently out of the southeast. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Mods or @wilcal need to change the title to 8 story, as much as many of us wanted a high rise it ain't happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the worker may be confused? Maybe his source is from the article HBJ posted back in February - there’s a number of projects underway by Alliance Residential. I’ll change the thread title once we get better confirmation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 The worker was the boss and he showed me the EDI plan on his phone, 8 story with a crown 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clutchcity94 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Just to confirm, no ground floor retail is planned for this, correct? I think a coffee shop would do well here. The closest ones are Black Hole and Siphon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabirk Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Plans seemed to have changed for the project. It's now a 9-Story Tower with 3 Levels of Parking.

X.R. Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Well, keeping it "mid-rise" is the desire of the Museum Park Neighborhood Association (do they even cover that part of the neighborhood?) and prolly got them out from under their whining. If its 8-9 story, with no retail/cafe I feel like thats going to be out-dated, just in terms of useage of the land, in like 10 years. They have access to so much traffic that anything they put in would at least get a good amount of eyeballs. Boone Manor, which is in the middle of townhomes, is gonna be 12-13 and have an on-site cafe. Shenanigans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Can't wait to get rid of my shitty iPhone 8 for the iPhone 11 Pro simply for the better camera, this pic was taken from just across IH 69 but it looks terrible. Sign is lit up but the Alliance portion needs some work. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 https://www.virtualbx.com/construction-preview/houston-alliance-residential-adds-two-more-broadstone-developments-to-its-harris-county-inventory/ Talking with that foreman last weekend has me confused about this project, his rendering pic didn't show this 15 story and the tower crane not having a climber on it makes me suspect it won't be 15 stories. Hope to see a rendering on the fence soon. Houston: Alliance Residential Adds Two More Broadstone Developments to its Harris County Inventory Feature Photo (above): When Broadstone Memorial Park opens in two years, residents will be greeted by this metal sculpture across Washington Avenue. The Western Brick Co. building currently on the market stands in the distance. Posted: 3-26-2019 by Adolfo Pesquera Houston (Harris County) — Phoenix-based Alliance Residential Company already had a half-dozen Broadstoneapartment developments in progress at the start of 2019, nevertheless, the company registered two more projects in February, according to state architectural records. Broadstone Memorial Park, 7721 Washington Ave. will be on a 4-acre site that is being purchased from Silver Eagle LP, owner of the Silver Eagle Distributors (Budweiser) facility next door at 7777 Washington Ave. There were several buildings on site, since removed, but acres of asphalt and concrete pavement remain.

Broadstone Museum District, 4617 Montrose Blvd., is located at the northeast corner of Montrose and Chelsea boulevards, where the Chelsea Market retail shops have stood since 1985. Chelsea Market tenants moved out in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the site was fenced off in January. The three buildings comprise 56,480 square feet of retail space that is being demolished. Chelsea Market (foreground) before it was shuttered. The Carter luxury apartment high-rise can be see above in the background. Image: Google Streets. EDI International, the architect on both projects, listed them as ongoing projects in the 4th Qtr-2018, but the designer has since pulled renderings of Broadstone Museum District off of their website. While the description was up, it displayed a 16-story high-rise, just two stories shorter than The Carter luxury apartments next door at 4 Chelsea Boulevard. A high-rise would be an obvious fit at a location that is in the middle of the gentrified Museum, Montrose and Midtown districts. Broadstone Memorial Park isn’t quite as obvious. Cushman & Wakefield had the property listed for several years, at least as far back as 2015. Its immediate surroundings are industrial. Concept rendering of Broadstone Memorial Park. Courtesy: EDI International. While it is just across the Katy Freeway from Memorial Park, it is right next door to a beer distributor, across the street from the district office of the Texas Department of Transportation, and several one-story office complexes–the Western Brick Company building that is listed for sale, The Frankel Building Group and the Washington Park Design Center. The project site for Broadstone Memorial Park (in pink) was part of the Silver Eagle beer distribution campus and is in an industrial district. Image: Google Maps. Washington Boulevard has been experiencing redevelopment further south, but the nearest comparable luxury residence is the Elan Memorial Park one mile southeast at the Washington Avenue/Wescott Street circle. EDI describes Broadstone Memorial Park as a five-story, Type 3A wood frame that will include 358 apartment units ranging in size from 684 to 1,540 square feet. It will include a seven-story parking garage of Type 2A concrete and have capacity for 582 parking spaces. EDI informed the state that the building area will total 564,634 square feet. Broadstones Memorial Park and Museum District were each given estimated construction start dates of Aug. 1 and will take 24 to 25 months to complete. The Museum District high-rise has a reported square footage of 581,687 SF and the lot Alliance is planning to build on is 91,868 square feet. Broadstone is the brand name Alliance Residential uses to market its apartment communities. Other Alliance Residential projects in progress in Houston include: Broadstone Timber Grove (aka Broadstone Minimax): a 342-unit, four-story wood frame on an 8-acre site with surface parking, at 2525 Minimax Drive and Loop 610 Broadstone Shepherd: a 337-unit, eight-story steel structure with seven-story garage located at North Shepherd and 15th Street in the Heights. Broadstone Sawyer: a 327-unit, five-story wood-frame with seven-story garage at Sawyer and Edwards streets in the Arts District. Broadstone Waterworks: a 309-unit, eight-story steel structure with four-story garage at West 20th and Nicholson streets. Broadstone Barker Cypress: 364 units planned at the southeast corner of Groeschke and Baker Cypress. Broadstone Studemont: 375 units at Summer and Studemont streets. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
