    It does appear that is what he said.  Understanding that he is in the business of marketing office space (so it's in his interest to exaggerate the scarcity) but still that seems like a wild exaggeration.   Even if you consider that he may have meant only three good office sites besides those already spoken for (so excluding the sites for 6 Houston Center, 5 Allen Center, 1500 Smith, Allen Center Clay Street, the 50-story Chevron tower, the adjacent block(s) owned by Chevron, Capitol Tower, One Market Square)... So excluding those 9 or so good office sites, are there really only 3 good office sites left in downtown Houston?

     

    What about...

    Block 142 (Milam, Louisiana, Walker, McKinney)

    Block 97 (Rusk, Walker, LaBranch, Austin)

    Block 251 (Lamar, Dallas, LaBranch, Austin), which would in turn open up 275 and 276, which would  in turn open up 291 and 292

    Block 319 (Clay, Bell, Milam, Travis)

    Block 318 (Clay, Bell, Travis, Main)

    Block 317 (Clay, Bell, Fannin, Main)

    Block 335 (Bell, Leeland, Travis, Main)

    Block 352 (Leeland, Pease, Travis, Milam)?

     

    And that's without getting into blocks that are/will be candidates for tear-downs (e.g. Block 257).

     

    Too bad this Chevron building in dead.

    Went to Alexlrad Bar near Midtown underneath the overpasses lots of tents. Many homeless people there.  People laying in the streets. I saw at least 40 tents. It's was very sad.

    United Airlines

    He is now president of United and I think he is running the airline.  He posted new flights from ORD.  Also larger planes going from EWR-ATL.  Now he will focus on DFW.  Very smart hired from American Airlines.  I saw his video and is going to take business from DFW.

    Good competing with Air China.  I would not be surprised if United flies IAH-PVG once they received more 777-300ERs.  They are number one to China and will keep it that way.  Delta is reducing flights out of NRT and making Seattle it's hub to China.
