Ross Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Any idea of when that picture was taken? The transformation from mostly low rise to mid to high rise over the years is pretty startling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Money Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Wow that's an awesome photo. I would guess that's sometime between 1971 and 1975, as 3 Greenway is built and 5 Greenway is under construction. You can see they've excavated most of the basement under 3/5GW and the foundation for the towers is in place. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChannelTwoNews Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Based on the placement of the photo, it looks like it would be 3 Greenway Plaza for the pit. 2 looks closer to completion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, there are houses where The Summit was going to be built, that opened Nov 1, 1975. They broke ground in Dec 1973, so I assume the houses were demolished by then. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were replaced, IIRC before anything was built. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
