  1. tin foil hat here - i think the unannounced 102 story tower is going up - que godzilla music - soooooooooooooooon
  2. Old city permits building? For sale or was - I believe it's known.
  3. never understood the point of the ramps - always appeared to be closed with a bus sitting up there.
  4. The one alley in Houston - I'll be there ready to fight 1114 Texas Ave. All you weinies who cry about how this or that project doesn't fit your perfect world I will fight you with my keyboard!!! No seriously, my dad called me today from Chicago, a furniture dealer closed a $55 million dollar deal here in Htown (cough cough West Beltway). This would be a entire year for any other city in the country. You can't make the rules or tell people where to build, just be happy you don't live anywhere else. Rant over - but seriously if someone complains about the stars one more time... I'll be in the alley....
  5. Thumbs up - and meet me in the alley if you want to hate on this project. OH BOOOOO - go play sim city haters!!!!!!!!!!!!! or move!
  6. Very cool - my neighbor mentioned the house next to Ron's auto was a brothel anyone remember that or have more info?
  7. interesting... still want to know what happened to Wharhols? Larry does your friend have any scoop there?
  8. excited this one is happening - a couple of years ago this would have 25 posts a day just waiting for a new building DT - think BG place ect. - now this is not even on my excited radar. Build baby!!!!!1
  9. Hahaha +1 it's hard not to think of this as a bunch of kids redoing a fort. I sense a similar out of money plea as the holiday inn / savoy coming any day although I hope I'm sorely mistaken...
  10. First thought - Houston House been around a while and although I know just went through a renovation - has aged considerably well IMO. Death to Thy Surface Lot!!!!!!!
  11. Haha you guys are so full of BRAZOS river sediment it's not even funny. Would one of you gladly like to commute DT then commute the freaking 30 minutes up this hypothetical garage. Sounds like a nightmare to me and probably the reason garages are usually capped including in NYC & CHI - simply not feasible to spend a half an hour going up in a spiral. smh
  12. bumping because this building to me is not boring - ate at Irma's today and couldn't help but imagine what that little corner of DT may turn into soon. Irma's the OG loc one is so legit. Pricey but seriously one of a kind. No menu, just talk to the fam.
  13. 1. Dollar General 2. Used Piano Store 3. A Cash Checking Spot Don't feed the trolls or they will bite back! Seriously... I would say 1.Trader Joes (small footprint) and better than fighting the mess on Alabama from MIdtown. New reidents got to eat and I don't think it would kill Phoenicia which I love. 2.A country bar like a little gimicky but a real honky tonk. It's honestly the only thing DFW has on us; rebels ha this response should be fun to watch !
  14. Hahahahaha I love this building and glad it's not empty. I hope all the GFR fanatics go and show their support and browse the pianos even if they don't play. So random!!! I actually play and don't have a piano here so HOGG building here I come!!!
  15. What's up with the spec apt? Or cheap house - can you give me the cross streets of said southern lot?
  16. Midtown superblock park - renderings are out July start date? Let me give you the low down - a lot of people are hating on it being scaled down DG - IMO it's better than giant empty field - think there's Camden apts in the mix too.
  17. Ha to whoever said "the north canal will be coming soon" I'm young and optimistic but I don't expect that will happen until 2030
  18. +1 courthouse and new hpd has to go north or east of DT - this would not be cool / not cool at all
  19. http://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Developers-not-happy-city-wants-downtown-post-5433975.php
  20. Can someone who knows this project well summarize the timeline for rennovation. New developement? And most importantly the gigantic crater in the earth - when will that be filled in? I always liked the door down there - reminded me of a zombie movie - I envisioned being stuck down there being chased by walkers and of course the door would be welded shut.
  21. Frost Town - has a nice ring to it. Thanks Houston 19514
  22. The whole area is a forgotten town - can someone remind me what it was called When they built I-10 and 59 it wiped what was left of the town off the map.
  23. Who owns this building? Can someone tell me
