    No every single new road, bridge, highway, drive-thru, and parking lot are now being tolled, and your payment is past due sucker

    They're just getting an early start on the new MidDowntown area once the Pierce is gone

    Well I didn't read the article and expect everything to be spoon fed to me so thank you.

    I thought of this too, but the turning radius required would mean that they'd have to tear down the new ramp for the elevated Unloading Dock behind the GRB, so if they put in temporary tracks they'd have to put them north of where they are now on Texas Ave.

    Oh ok so that was just a usual swtsig tease then?

    Technically that one isn't wrong yet as the Texaco renovation won't wrap up until 2035.

    Is that what the article refers to as "near the West Ave mixed-use project"? Are they referring to a Hanover project or some other developers mixed use project?

    Not sure if this has been discussed yet or not, but is anyone else curious what the impact of "tunneling" the new 45/69 behind the GRB will have on the Green/Purple lines? Theyre gonna have to construct a bridge for the lines, and a possible method for this would be to build one half of the bridge so that there's still one line to connect Eado to Downtown, but since there isn't a "switch" on the West side of 69, trams headed West won't be able to cross over (where the line splits by the new GRB Garage) to the Capitol side of the line. If they can't do that, then they can't turn around and head East back towards Eado. I guess they could construct a temporary line by making a sharp S-curve immediately West of Eado Stadium Station, and run the lines parallel to the current ones on Texas Ave, then make the turn Southwest and connect it to the current lines. This would require shutting down Texas Ave, which in itself is a huge issue, but then there's the cost of this whole proposal. Either way, service on the Green/Purple line is going to be...lacking in the coming years. Honestly, they're probably just going to use the Switch they built West of Eado Stadium Station and just shut off service for a year or so while they build the bridge over the new Freeway.

    I actually like this idea, but it needs to include a hole in the 2nd floor practice field so that JJ can post vids of him jumping onto the field from the first floor once he's recovered and when the NFL finally relaxes their position on body augmentations.

    I always thought the office tower was taller...

    I thought I read that it will officially start carrying passenger in January. Edit; no typo; singular form is correct

    Hot and original take coming thru; that Target is an eyesore

    I highly doubt this and the Catalyst will be done.

    I love the irony here; Monarch, the man who with the widest vernacular of any user, who writes a thesis that essentially says "great pic," just abbreviated Thanksgiving. Never change my friend.

    I'll make inflammatory comments and get people to start arguing/fighting

    There was a Replat filed last week for Phase 2.
  21. BigFootsSocks
    It is, they added a rendering for the Tower and the purpose for the plat; reducing the required setback from Sage. Looks like the hotel wall will come in about 2 feet into the normal setback.

    Usually followed by, "but it's the cheapest option" which is unfortunate.
  24. BigFootsSocks

    Why not the purple line? It's closer to Hobby isn't it?
