Eastside KEV

Thanks for that great info Danax and Hokieone. I agree that its not going to happen overnight, but if you have, say 5-7 years, I think a return on the investment is probable. The rooftop decks havent been used as much as I would think, but with minimal cost and a high-end reward, I think most builders are moving that direction. Doing a little research online, I see that some people have even put a jacuzzi on the rooftop patio. That would make our mild winters a true pleasure!

This forum makes me proud to be a Houstonian, and I hope we can all appreciate this great source of information.

Thanks Again!

So I was driving around the East side of Downtown a few days ago and came across some pretty interesting townhomes. They are near the Alexan lofts, on Jensen just off I-10. The builder is Cityview homes, and they have a pretty cool roof top terrace with every unit they will sell. They are asking around 220K for a 1900 Sq Ft home, and have very nice finishes. I guess waht Im getting at is what we can expect from the eastside of Downtown in the coming years. Will it turn around? Is it too industrial? THere are many other builders in that area building roof top decks as well. In-town and Waterhill are two who are building similar strucures for around 250K. They have two-car garages, and many dont share walls. The views of Houston from the East Side are beautiful, and many builders are designing structures to take advantage of the area. Any opinions or ideas would be great! Thanks.
