The Ozone Files Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 While chatting with Bob at Imparali Tailor today, I learned that all tenants in his building were given a 6 month notice to vacate. He said the building would be torn down in order to build a 15 story office tower. This is basically just hearsay, but I thought HAIF would like to know. The building is across Richmond from Midway's Kirby Grove. I didn't find a previous thread for this address in a search. Apologies if this is old news.

Montrose1100 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It’s only a matter of time before all the groovy office buildings on Richmond make way for newer ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naviguessor Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 True, Montrose. There is a great collection of mid century/60’s architecture down that strip of Richmond’s. It’ll be a shame to lose it. But...it’ll probably happen more sooner than later. According to Rice University, 3000 Richmond Ave. was developed by Hines Interests / Gerald Hines. Designed by Wilson, Morris, Crain & Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
