jhjones74 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 22 hours ago, Urbannizer said: Not sure why- but it’s Houston. Maybe to throw off one who discovers the flip book? Or just mistaken for another project he may be working on? 2811 Kirby is the name of this development and there’s no Kirby street in Austin. Probably just put Austin in his portfolio thinking that’s a more recognizable city internationally. Even though Houston has probably 3x the number of highrises. Uneducated guess, it’ll be a year before this breaks ground, if they get the construction financing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLC’s press release referenced groundbreaking in “Spring 2024.” My thought was “May 2024 at the earliest.” https://southernland.com/luxury-high-rise-development-planned-for-northeast-corner-of-kirby-drive-and-kipling-street-in-houstons-upper-kirby-district/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shasta Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Not sure if this is the official rendering. Looks like an "on the board" rendering....or even a competition. Has this been formally released by the developer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassclef Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I hope not. It’s another boring box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyDriveKid Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Wow, we are picky nowadays. I'm skeptical this gets financing, but if it does I will 100% celebrate this lot's Wachovia branch to 36 story highrise glowup. Maybe I'll even dance a little jig on the Beck's Prime deck. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The portfolio says the drawings are 90-100% If that's the case, then we have an idea of how much of an impact this will make. To the top of the parapet: 430' 7" Top of tower core wall: 424' 10" Machine Room: 413' 11" Top of Roof: 404' 7" 37th Floor: 388' 11" 36th Floor: 369' 11" Office Core Wall: 135' 3" Office Roof Top: 131' 1" Office F&B Level (4): 113' 1" Top of Garage: 69' 7" Figured I'd snap the pages of it in case it ever disappears... 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
