  1. Better than what it was before. Not as great as the original rendering, but still great.
  2. I like town homes as well but more of the brick one that are found all around New York and Boston.
  3. What an ass. How has main street been destroyed? Looking down main street with the trains running and people walking creates such an urban environment that would be at the level it is now had it not been for rail!
  4. It looks like every other residential tower going up, but progress is progress so I'm a fan!
  5. Not too many have gone to crap. It's a shame but at lease there have only been about 3 or 4 buildings to be cancelled or set back. So many tower cranes are on the horizon, I can't imagine what Houston will look like in a year.
  6. Wait, so it was on hold but is now under construction?
  7. It actually is surprising they're taking up the whole lot because in Houston there's this trend to add an obnoxious garage and acres (exaggerated) of grass and landscaping.
  8. If it is expanded 10 floors and reaches 960ft then it'd be about 8 meters short of supertall.
  9. The Devon tower to the left would actually look really good in that area.
  10. I haven't really kept up with this project but are both the taller and shorter structures being renovated?
  11. Is there any way to deepen and widen the bayou?
  12. Are you from Venezuela? I spend every summer there and it is the exact same way.
  13. I've been waiting for that building to be renovated into something! Great news, thanks Urbannizer!
  14. To a certain extent who cares what it looked like, Houston really needs a new hotel, or three! If for example a ritz, a W, and a Le Meridien were to all go up at once they'd all have good business. So I just hope developers get on the ball.
  15. If you look the little building to the left that is also under some secret (I think) renovation, you can see green neon light?
  16. I really hope they put more than one tower on the lot. That'd be great
  17. It seems like it. Everything including the web page is down. Dammit I liked this one! I love low rise density made out of brick instead of stucco.

    IAH Vs. DFW

    I know, it's more frustration than anything. It's just so happens though that those two cities (and Mumbai/Auckland) are the cities that I have always dreamed of Houston serving, but they went to Dallas. And air China's route to Houston is one of the first routes to be profitable within the first month of operation in CA's history. Does TAM serve any Texas cities?
