  1. Things are taken off, we need more restaurants downtown. With all the apartments going up the is no where to eat with everything closed Sunday. Take off baby!
  2. I was there last weekend people everywhere. It's going to be very dense. Hard to believe there was nothing there 5 years ago. All of Downtown has come a l long way.
  3. Flying to DFW today please welcome me. Having a meeting in Addison. Lets have din din! Meow!
  4. See if you can guess how many buildings underconstruction? http://oxblue.com/open/Hines/609/Main
  5. I never said Dallas sucks. It is a view from a outsider sorry if the truth hurts. If you don't like it get off HAIF and go back to Dallas Metropolis which that does suck. Meow!
  6. I feel they will never build a 100 floor building in Dallas. Everything is being built in Plano and outlined areas. For some reason Downtown Dallas, there is something wrong. I cannot figure it out and they make it look so beautiful with pictures. Just got back and nothing to do there. I love Dallas but also the Trinity River is awful and they want to build a freeway over it. They should do what Houston did with Buffalo Bayou Park. There is so much potential there. Since the Perot family is so rich. Build parks walk to ability restaurants, bike and trails. The Kinder Foundation made billions but gave it back to the city of Houston. They are now starting a 20 year plan for Memorial Park. The first phase just started. The area will the Cotton Bowl is also has so much potential. I saw that Dallas has the rich north and the poor south. That could be the problem. It is not a divers city people are divided.
  7. I ask why Ross Perot will build a 50-100 floor building. Is his son in the development market? I know Dell bought Perot System Corporation for 3.9 billion. So I will wait when the cranes are up.
  8. Thanks, but read the article on skyscraperpage.com which are tallest buildings underconstruction in Texas not proposed.
  9. They are pouring the next floor. Does anybody know the floor count?
  10. The Dunlavy off Lost Lake will be opening soon. A friend of mine is going to a wedding reception in April. It's only for private events.
  11. I was Downtown last Sunday and there were thousands of people there. There was a huge convention and they were looking for somewhere to eat. Most places closed, but I told them to go to Market Square. Or ride the rail and get off Midtown McGowen station and walk 2 blocks west which there are many restaurants there. Definitely need more restaurants and retail.
  12. Off topic to tired, but what is going on with the Texaco building? Has it been 3 years since the renovation?
  13. Build it and they will come. At this time my friends from out of town I tell them to stay at the J. W. Marriott. I meet them there for drinks. On the weekends I ride my bike to Niko Niko's. Cannot wait till the Marriott Marquis is built so I can stay there a weekend in the pool. Once there are 7,000 residents Downtown it will spur lots of activity. Remember when Discovery Green was not there? Well, look what happened.
  14. The building behind the Shell Station at Kirby and Southwest Freeway is being torn down. I also remember there was a gym there and Miyako is closed. I did not see a variance sign but will check it out later today.
  15. Cool looks great! Is there a height limit there because of Love Field? Be there next week also want to go to Forth Worth. Meow!
  16. It's so huge let us counts how long it takes a 18 wheeler to crash into it!
  17. The neighbors are against it because they want to build it 5 feet from the street. They want it 12 feet from the street. But they are just totally against it.
  18. In Houston we have lots of FFA applications does not mean it will get built. Calm down and eat your turkey. I'll always wait for the cranes then jump around! Meow!
