Six Houston Center Location: Downtown block bounded by Rusk, Caroline, Walker and San Jacinto Developer: Fort Worth-based Crescent Real Estate Holdings Original plan: In February, Crescent said it would break ground over the summer on a 30-story, $250 million office tower designed for the site. It was prepared to start construction without having a tenant lined up first. Completion on the 600,000-square-foot building was scheduled for the end of 2016. Status: An emailed statement from the company said: "Crescent is committed to Six Houston Center. We are in discussions with several large tenants, and the response to our location, design and amenities has been very favorable. We have our permits and financing in place, and we are targeting a 2017 completion - which coincides with many significant lease expirations in the market." http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Cracks-forming-in-commercial-real-estate-market-6037038.php#/0

Fortune replied to tangledwoods's topic in Going Up!
Chevron building Location: Downtown block bounded by Louisiana, Smith, Pease and Leeland Original plan: A new 50-story office tower for San Ramon, Calif.-based Chevron was announced in the summer of 2013, but the project was put on hold less than six months later, at which time the company said it would decide when to resume the project "after 2014." Update: At this stage, "no update," Cam Van Ast, media adviser for Chevron North America Exploration and Production, said in an email. http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Cracks-forming-in-commercial-real-estate-market-6037038.php#/0- 1,170 replies

Capitol Tower Location: Downtown, 800 Capitol Developer: Skanska USA Original plan: The developer purchased the former Houston Club building more than three years ago and in 2013 announced plans to build a 35-story office tower in its place. The Houston Club building was imploded in October. Status: The office building will not break ground until a tenant has committed to occupy a substantial portion of it. The developer is still "actively and aggressively" marketing the office space, said Michael Mair, executive vice president and regional manager for Skanska. In the meantime, the company is developing a garage on the southern half of the block that will open later this summer. http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Cracks-forming-in-commercial-real-estate-market-6037038.php#/0

West Memorial Place: Office Building At 15375 Memorial Dr.
Fortune replied to ChannelTwoNews's topic in Katy and Points West
West Memorial Place Location: Energy Corridor, south of Memorial Drive adjacent to Terry Hershey Park Developer: New York-based Skanska USA Commercial Development Original plan: After nearly completing the first half of a two-building office project, the developer started construction on the second in the fall, expecting to see strong demand from tenants in the energy sector. Status: The first building, nearly 60 percent pre-leased, is expected to open next month. Construction has started on the second building, which should be completed in the spring of 2016. There are no tenants yet. http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Cracks-forming-in-commercial-real-estate-market-6037038.php#/0 -
"Location: Upper Kirby at Kirby near Steele Street Developer: Houston-based Hanover Co. Original plan: In August, the developer said it was planning a tower potentially rising more than 30 stories and with more than 300 apartments. It was under contract on 1.65-acre site and was scheduled to close in early 2015. Construction would then begin in the summer. Status: The closing date for the land has been pushed back due to "economic uncertainty in Houston," Hanover's David Ott said." http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Cracks-forming-in-commercial-real-estate-market-6037038.php#/0

BLVD Place Mixed-Use: 1700 Post Oak Blvd.
Fortune replied to Subdude's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
I'm sure once the 7+ residential highrises planned along Post Oak are built the store will have a larger customer base. The residential buildings planned for Uptown Park (not sure how many residences that will be once it's redeveloped and built out), Astoria, The Bellfoire, the 40 story highrise planned across San Felipe from Whole Foods, the 2 other residential highrises planned for BLVD place besides the Hanover tower which isn't at full capacity, the multifamily highrise planned for Ambassador Way & S. Post Oak Ln, the Gables high rise planned next to the BBVA building, the Galleria residential tower. Just give it some time, I'm sure the future urban dwellers of these towers will shop at the store and keep it packed, eventually.- 2,416 replies

I think the "pavilion" will still be built it will just be in another phase of development. This is just the first phase of construction, at a later date some more buildings will be built to the west of this building. Most likely once they are built then the pavilion will be built over the completed structure.

Amegy Bank At 1717 West Loop S.
Fortune replied to nolaboy's topic in River Oaks/Upper Kirby/Greenway Plaza/Bissonnet
The only people I have seen gushing over this building is people on here that have supposedly seen renderings of the building. It's not Amegy "playing a dangerous game" it's HAIFers.- 558 replies

In my opinion the Swamplot articles, post, and stories have been on a steady decline. They post things that have nothing to do with real estate, they post old news, they miss out on real estate news and developments that I think should be included. Just not how the old Swamplot use to be.

I just don't see why the declining price of oil has to be brought up in every forum. We all know what's going on with oil prices and how they effect the market and projects. It doesn't need to be repeated over and over. I just read almost two pages of post that really have nothing to do with The Kirby Collection.

The key word is SIGNATURE. I don't think Hillcorp is considered a signature tower. I don't think Capital Tower is considered a signature tower, it's just a box and it hasn't broke ground yet. 800 Bell is a renovation and Chevron is a proposal. Like I said this building is the one and only SIGNATURE tower to be built so far in this boom. There have been lots of buildings built during this boom lots of office space but this is the only tower that I think can be considered as Signature.
