Montrose1100 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I found out about the Galleria in Dallas in Texas Monthly magazine. It also talked about the mall in The Woodlands.They were both developed by Hines in the 70's. The Dallas one however, did not remain the metro's main high-end shopping center.

The Dallas one however, did not remain the metro's main high-end shopping center.Actually, the Dallas Galleria was developed until the 80s. (To be precise, the Houston Galleria opened in 1970; the Dallas Galleria in 1982.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deut28Thirteen Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I thought they were going to make that macys apartments or something like that. The Galleria is already one of the biggest malls in America but we should make it the biggest, I mean everything in Texas is bigger, with that being said how much room is there to expand? We could always go up like some of the new malls in China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vertigo58 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Martini Park appears to be very upscale. Beautiful people only? Temp Hijack but I bet Houston is right behind NYC with highest drink prices. The average in NYC is $10.00 per well drink. LA, SFO and NY are most expensive places for nighlife. Houston is trailing. Oy vey! once again.

TexasArchitect Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) Martini Park appears to be very upscale. Beautiful people only?well it kinda aims at a different crowd. apparently the martini park in plano is making a big hit and turning up good revenue. i'm not familiar with plano, but i was told that the location of M.P. there was attracting a lot of the yuppie crowd etc.hopefully the galleria location will be as successful, which i can't imagine it not doing well. the project is fairly big 6,800 sq ft w/ 552 sq ft of parking garage storage rooom Edited June 19, 2007 by TexasArchitect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks so inviting from Westheimer but then there is NO public entrance on the sidewalk to the store! You can walk by and want to go in, but then most people won't be able to figure out how to get in.

I burly saw the outside sorta entrance of Barneys Co Op I think that ghetto store Gregorys has one too. it will be pure Sex if most of the level 1 stores had outside entrances thats kewl ... does anyone know whats gonna be next to Borders ... I heard it might be an H&M.
