Central Square Century Building At 2100 Travis St.
Purdueenginerd replied to ToryGattis's topic in Midtown
I saw pictures of the interior of it on an urban exploring website maybe 6 months ago. It was actually in pretty decent shape. A good spread of 1950's-1980's interior decorations... I'll see if I can find it when Im not at the office supposed to be doing work. -
Carnegie Vanguard High School At 1501 Taft St.
Purdueenginerd replied to VicMan's topic in Other Houston Neighborhoods
Could be neat! I really like the decision to put the library/tall windows on the corner of Gray/Taft. Good natural lighting for the students and it kind of looks cool from the street.- 104 replies

WaterWall Place: Multifamily At 2801 Waterwall Dr.

decent project, Just wish they had some street retail...- 113 replies

I think they are building something on that mini-lot. Phase IV. But what that picture is, Im pretty sure it's a mock up for phase III (its been there since the start of the project). 2 different brick schemes, different paint schemes, insulation installation procedure, no foundation, etc....

"Not sure if this is an add on as it is across the street from the main development:" I'm pretty sure that's a mock up for the field crews.

Dumb question: I drove by there recently but it looks like they built a second parking garage North of the main project. It was roughly at the block bounded by Victor, Cushing, and Cleveland... Is that Post Midtown's doing as well or a separate project?

I asked the leasing office and they stated there will be retail on grey for phase III. The little lot deemed phase IV will have no retail.

Not a fan of this structure - reminds of 1970's glass curtain designs...

Based on just images alone, it looks like the only reasoning between the two bridge types is architectural. I believe the span, and elevation for the the buffalo bayou pedestrian bridge is longer and higher respectively than the Brays Bayou Bridge. That being said, the loads and spans associated for both these bridges are so low that (to an extent) the only legit worry is cost... because buffalo bayou appears longer, it may have been less feasible from the cost standpoint to do some crazy architectural structure. Finally, from an engineering standpoint the Brays bridge pictured above is kind of a silly design, but thats why architects make the big bucks compared to us structural engineers. Also, just to clarify I do Power Plant/Oil Refinery Civil work--- so my knowledge may somewhat be limited.
