Bay Area Lakefront Development

Recommended Posts

There's finally some new lakefront development happening in the Bay Area! I've long thought this area was primed to densify and become a fun waterfront area so long as some higher paying jobs came to the area (which they are thanks to the commercial space companies launching and growing around NASA Johnson). I hope to see the entire waterfront redevelop and densify with apartments, condos, and entertainment uses!

Taylor Lake Village Developments

Single family home and condo developments with restaurant and retail on the north and south side of NASA Parkway in Taylor Lake Village and El Lago. $90 million development. Hopefully it'll push some redevelopment of other lakefront properties.

Residences on Clear Lake

Two 5-floor buildings with 20 condos each next to the Hilton on NASA Parkway.

Seabrook Planned Unit Development

Two hotels, conference center, apartment complex, restaurant and commercial space all built over a parking podium on NASA Parkway (Near Sam's Boat). One of the hotels is a Compass by Margaritaville.

Beacon Island

Beacon Island development is proceeding. Currently single family homes and an apartment complex are under construction.

Seabrook City Council OKs $170M mixed-use project with Compass by Margaritaville hotels

This is not a small mixed-use. Per the article:
"... The company, owned by Houston-based developer John Fischer, plans to develop what is to be called Seabrook Plaza, with a 100,000-square-foot boutique hotel, a 120,000-square-foot extended stay hotel, a 25,000-square-foot event center, a seven-story apartment complex with 260 one- and two-bedroom units, and about 25,000 square feet of retail space.

It also includes more than 800 parking spots for the hotels and event center and nearly 370 for the apartments. Most of the parking would be on the first and second floors of the buildings..."

I've actually heard that reason it is called Clear Lake was because it once was more Clear Water. The Lake was surrounded by water grass and marsh that filtered the water and helped it look more clear but then us humans removed that grass and marsh and the water coming to Clear Lake was unobstructed and then it became brown as out in the bay.

The Taylor Lake Village development had appeared stalled for a while but the rear buildings on the northern tract are up to the third floor. The single family houses are also continuing construction. The southern parcel is finishing utility and road construction.
