  1. Wow, I thought you couldn’t get construction financing without selling 50% prior to breaking ground. I don’t imagine ox berry will be doing anymore condos in the future.
  2. I thought I saw Bouchon for a second and got really excited. One day...
  3. The owners built the best western on W Dallas when that area was much less developed than what Eado is currently, and were rewarded handsomely for that risk. I just hope they don’t build build a huge concrete fence around their parking lot like the W Dallas project. It would nice to have a less suburban looking product in eado.
  4. Its the same owners as the best western on W. Dallas. Someone may want to give them a ring and ask for updates.
  5. I believe the best western is going in on the same block as brothers tacos.
  6. This will probably get settled prior to foreclosure. $2.9M isn't a ton of money relative to the project size.
  7. Houston may get it's own version of Wriglyville
  8. I've heard Amazon will be leasing a Macy's building (possibly this one) for something distribution related.
  9. Yeah, I would imagine they would probably lose those historical tax credits if they altered the color of the brick.
  10. MPNA said the TLH is building a club across the street. As you would imagine, there was a lot of grumbling.
  11. The developers are looking to break ground in Q4. project looks good - seems like no stucco will be used. Unfortunately, no GFR. The cafe on their ground floor is for residents only. They would consider leasing it out a 3rd party if/when parking code is changed. As of now, they wouldn’t be able to build the additional parking the code calls for.
  12. I’ve heard the buyer isn’t really a developer. They owned an adjacent tract and are creating a larger development site. I wouldn’t be surprised if this hit the market soon.
  13. This looks to be coming together nicely. Without a garage in phase I, I’m not sure how they would handle overflow. I don’t believe this is the type of location where you can just look for street parking.
  14. There are some newly constructed condos for under $300psf in the Museum District. https://www.har.com/4820-caroline-street-207/sale_14235829 With that being said, I don't think the developer did well financially on this project.
  15. I was at the planning commission meeting last week. The neighborhood came out in full force against this development. They are adamant about emancipation being a retail corridor. The developer was seeking a 10’ setback in lieu of a 25’ setback on emancipation. They were about to have their variance denied, so the developer withdrew. Let’s see if he can somehow find a way to incorporate retail in this.
  16. I'd be interested to see if this is actually in midtown. This group tried to purchase a surface parking lot at the corner of W Dallas and I-45, so it's possible their development might be north of what we all consider midtown.
  17. I think the drop off on calumet was removed from the project. The only vehicular access point is la branch.
  18. The developer mentioned it would add 2 floors to the garage and 1 floor to the residential building. if he goes through with it, it’s a true lose-lose situation for the developer (extra costs)and the neighborhood association (taller building). I think the intent of having a smaller meeting was that they could negotiate with the heads of the association to offer up some concessions. Unfortunately, 50 people showed up saying this site wasn’t right and the developer should study the outcome to the Ashby high rise. The extra costs probably could’ve been shared with the neighborhood for some streetscape enhancements. Truly unfortunate outcome that helps no one.
  19. I’ve heard conservatory will be putting another food hall concept in Dan Brauns recent acquisition at W Alabama and Rice.
