I don't think that the property in Midtown has transacted yet, so their lease hasn't ended there. No way that they move without the lease being terminated.

E.Res Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I think it might be buses from visitors in Houston, not Greyhound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cspwal Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I never drive to east downtown so if anyone does, is the parking really so constrained we needed another parking lot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBTX Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Thursday through Sunday nights, yes. Or you could bike. Or take the train. Or walk. But we know what 95%+ of this city prefers to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live a few blocks from here ... on weekends it can be very busy, especially at night and especially when there are soccer / baseball games. There are free street parking options a few blocks away on the other side of Emancipation, but Houston folk are too lazy to walk a few blocks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cspwal Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I live where the free street parking is and there are always spots even with on Saturday nights. But I haven’t tried parking close so I didn’t know first hand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheKnowHouston Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 It seems @HNathoo's speculation may have been right: On 8/19/2022 at 9:54 AM, HNathoo said: They would be the logical buyers for this, given that all the parking for East Village will be taken via eminent domain. Ancorian may be use this entire block for East Village parking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and my friends go here from time to time on a busy weekend, usually find parking no more than 10 minutes. Its really not needed IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 I was here pretty early this morning so no workers had shown up yet. I think they will do the whole thing eventually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) With nearly the entire block paved for surface parking, the building at 1315 St Emanuel St / 1315 Saint Emanuel St remains. I wonder if Ancorian will rehab the standing warehouse? And if so, what plans does Ancorian have in mind for this block?

Sanjorade Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Striping and lighting going in. This seems to be a long term parking lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
