    YAAAAAS! This is such a great building! Good to see this will be saved!

    When you realize the scale of this project, it's almost insanity to let this happen. You lose so much more than you gain.

    I hope this project doesn't happen. The East End will lose alot.

    http://offcite.org/im-a-repurposer-preserving-east-downtowns-cheek-neal-coffee-company-building/ Nevermind I found the article! Wow this developer is awesome! Tout Suite will be gone BUT thankfully we can keep this beautiful building as a landmark for the East End!

    Are you sure about this? I read in an article from the leader of Preservation Houston that federal and state plans overturn local preservation. Where did you see that they adjusted the road??? I would be beyond happy to know this building would be saved. And what about the Tout Suite building?

    If they remove the WALD sign I will literally die

    Wow this is really great news! I really like how Upper Kirby District widened sidewalks along Westheimer. It makes that area feel so much better! So when do improvements begin?

    As much as I love this overall, I can't help but question why this development has gaps in the brick sidewalks, terrible landscaping, and massive signs stuck in the mud that say NOW LEASING. It just seems very suburban for a lack of better words. I walked by today and I hope that over time these minor things settle in nicely to the urban landscape. On a side note, wth is up with Texas Ave??? They need to repave some areas badly.

    Something goes up and something comes down.

    Honestly it's working for Houston. Unlike other cities that developed from the core outwards, Houston developed in pockets that are finally starting to merge together cohesively. What I'm starting to see is the investment downtown is not only to make downtown great but to reconnect the city.

    I think both neighborhoods are suited for those types of development. The thing is that Midtown is more modern and the East End is more industrial. Just two different styles.

    Prob to attract a grocery store??? The people on the East End rely on small meat market places, which imo opinion are great! A big box gorcery store will prob kill those businesses. I mean with an increase in population and foot traffic, it will only be a matter of time before other things happen.

    Man I hate seeing this go down. I know Hines will do something great but not knowing when is my problem. Such a massive scar downtown in the nations 4th largest city.

    This is such a major upgrade for our skyline.

    Will do, and while I'm doing that learn how to spell the name of the hotel, it's on the forum.

    Ahh ok I barely found out they were building a garage at Franklin and Milam. I got confused. Thanks!

    You've clearly never worked construction. They seem to be at least 2 months ahead of their scheduled opening. The "closed-in" side you're referring to isn't 2 months worth of work if the money is there. And if they're ahead, that means the money is there to speed up construction. I figured they would barely be installing window panels.
  24. j_cuevas713
    That was such an educated response. Common sense will tell you that this thing almost looks done with a solid 2 months left before the big game. Looks like they have a chance to finish, maybe. That's my point.

    Thank goodness this is being restored again.
