BOI Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Gentlemen, the deal is real. All good things take time. Yes, when developing highrises- it is not for those of faint of heart. Yes, there are contracts; albeit a few to be tweaked. No big deal. Yes, the sales center on W. Alabama is open every day. No, the buyers are not leftovers from Redstone; location, value, and trust rule for those wanting new product; price is not an issue for those in the know. Kirby is good for Houston, the development community, and should be supported ;as there will surely be bigger and more well known national developers coming now that the door was cracked open a little wider by the locals.

Montrose1100 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I saw a sharper looking rendering of the tower in this month's HOUSTON magazine. Looks the same, but I know something is different, can't put my finger on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonfella Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Sales upfront will do the trick.... get those rich beeeeee atches out there and let 'em buy. The Huntingdon has served this area well. Now, its 21st Century. I think it will work, but you all know I am the eternal optimist. Eternal. Optimist.

The New Juniper Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 (edited) Gentlemen, the deal is real. All good things take time. Respectfully, I disagree. And I would like to disagree in a manner as to not raise anyone's ire. Rather, I just believe that condominium development does not get better with time. Contracts go stale, interest meters tick out of control, public confidence wanes, markets shift, you get my drift. In fact, deals like 2727 don't even remain neutral over time. Without daily progress, they get worse.... Again, not a personal shot at the previous post. Don't even know the person. What i do know is every hour you are not "moving the ball down the field"* you are losing ground. TNJ *reference to the $^% Horns who urinated away a shot at the title ...nice job against KSU....

groovehouse Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 (edited) The crane has arrived!! These photos were taken this morning on my way to work! But they have split the lot. I am not sure what's going on. One half of the lot is fenced and the other half still has HUGE trenches. I am not sure if the full lot is being utilized or just part of it. It's very weird the way it is fenced. Edited November 16, 2006 by groovehouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groovehouse Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 They have also taken down part of the middle fence, so the whole lot will be used. It was just weird that it was seperated. The crane base is up and standing and I assume the rest of the crane will be assembled soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably had the pit area fenced off, so no imbeciles would kill themselves in it. But, yeah; GREAT news!

The Great Hizzy! Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Wow, that just goes to show you how stuff can affect you. There was so much talk about the tower being unlikely to take off that I stopped bothering to look at the site for any signs of progress. Good lookin' out Groove House.

sanman Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I wonder what's gonna go in the place of that former Shell station?that corner is part of the gables plan for the mixed use project on kirby from westheimer south to kipling.the middle fence was either on the property line or just south of the property line.if you go to www.hcad.org , you can see the actual lot size which necessitated the narrow structure.
