Damn... Do we really need zoning in this city?

John Culbertson is a complete moron. I fully understand representing your constituents, but he mainly represents himself and his pockets. It amazes me how he "struck a deal" with Metro to have commuter rail to Mo City yet he couldn't help Metro find a new route for the University Line. Yeah if you don't want rail in your neighborhood that's one thing, but to make sure no more rail projects are part of our transportation plan is the Republican thing to do. What a jerk for a lack of waaay better words. I did see some work beginning on West Alabama today. Getting a walkable connection to Upper Kirby from Midtown/Montrose is going to be great.

I've been waiting for fifty five years for some of these things to come to fruition so don't hold your breath.

Thanks for the hope lol

Well from what I understand, Houston voted YES on a pay as you go system. While it's great to prevent additional debt, it slows down progress. I feel like I'll be dead by the time this city get's all the pieces in place lol

I get all the studies and meetings but damn we have to wait till 2020 for them to start construction on this? And West Alabama hasn't even started yet. What I don't get is when we have a massive event (Super Bowl) somehow the money finds a way to fix an issue quickly.

With their dryer climate I would guests they have more better weather days than us.

Nooooo way... while the humidity can be downright exhausting here in Houston... the heat in North Texas literally stings and hurts

I work a ton with HP. I wish all these companies were downtown lol

This shot for some reason reminds me of a part of the Bronx

I'm actually excited that all the street repaving and new sidewalks for that general area are happening at the same time as this. Those streets were falling apart.

I'm just happy this place will be a nice restaurant. The past two places were nasty and dirty.

.

I can't believe this place is still empty. It's such a nice building.

This thing is going up fast!

Well that's not good news

Looks like Midtown Sears is close to being finished.... Finally

Are those nicely planned sidewalks!? Whaaaaaaaat!?

Does anyone have a timeline for W. Alabama and Lower Westheiner reconstruction?

Man we really needed this with the Chronicle building coming down.

Yeah if we complain we will eventually get answers. Nice job HoustonMidtown!

It's only a matter of time before the lots behind MMP start getting new construction.

Finally! 

I didn't realize how bad this demo was going to make this area look. Such a massive gap between the Chase tower to MSP!

I passed by a few times and never noticed. Looks good, would love to see more palm trees around the city. 

Wow me either. I pass by this all the time. Anyways I'm really happy with how dense Houston is getting. Solid development. 

This entire area is a national brand now. Very impressive.
