  1. It's from the owners of El Gran Malo which is a Heights restaurant / bar specializing in infused tequilas. The food scene is eagerly anticipating it and I'm curious to see how the downtown superblock handles two tequila / mezcal bars (it is near the recently opened Pastry War from the Anvil crowd) Here's coverage on Houston Eater: http://houston.eater.com/tags/el-big-bad
  2. Updated the development timeline for: 1) Moved Hines Residential at Market Square Park from "Potential Developments" to Q1 2016 2) Moved Green Street Renovation from Q4 2013 to Q2 2014
  3. Here's an update attached. I couldn't figure out how to edit my prior post.
  4. Here's my best guess. Let me know if you have better info.
  5. I am getting married next summer and have the same question. I am considering the Julia Ideson Library, 5226 Elm and Avant Garden but would like to hear if there is anything else out there. Something similar to this would be perfect: http://wythehotel.com/events/
  6. It sounds like Hines is thinking about constructing a multifamily highrise apartment at Preston and Travis based on this article which would be even bigger news.
  7. Does anyone know the expected completion / opening date? Pearl Real Estate lists 2013 on their website (http://www.pearl-realestate.com/portfolio.html) but Central Houston estimates fall 2014 in their Q4 2012 downtown real estate update (http://downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2013-01-02/Downtown_Real_Estate_Update_2012-4Q-2.pdf). Here's a construction photo update. Not a lot has changed week-over-week. Also, this is interesting: the adjacent building on Rusk looks like it has rooms in it. Not sure if its connected to the hotel or not.
  8. Here's Main and Capitol at 13-Jan-2013. It looks like METRO integrated the East End line and the red line. Here's Main and Rusk.
  9. Thanks for the back shot - here's a view from the front of the building as of 13-Jan. Agree that daily updates are a little much - it really doesn't change that much on a daily basis although there are crews there around the clock.
