Spalmer Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I lived in the greenspoint area for 10 years I've seen the best of it I've also seen the worst of it hopefully this will make things good so this is affordable housing I hope that means that there's not too much government housing we know how that works would love to see something happen with the mall it's a shame about the theater that theater wasn't old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminare Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 And the award for the Worst Model to be Published/Shared with the Public...goes to...Forge Craft. At the very least when you show off your model, show a finished one. Seriously, my eyes are bleeding and weeping at the same time when I look at this. I am immediately skeptical of any firm or project that is shown/presented in this way. Its lazy, and unprofessional. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston needs more affordable units, and they probably should be distributed city-wide, rather than in a cluster. I'm also not enthused about the cinder-block character of the structures; it really is not family-friendly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose1100 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 On a different note, the office buildings in Greenspoint have updated Christmas lights (Red & Green LED vs the last 80s bulbs in the city). Cool to see the empty mall parking lot being used for something else. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
