I've been meaning to come back to this thread and say the same thing .

What a wild story

Hopefully 93' Til sees more business from this.

Most food trucks run generators for electricity, so ideally the solar panels and batteries would be sufficient for a majority of their daily power consumption. 

Exactly, it's a cool idea and kind of captures the spirit of what the Ion District is supposed to be; innovation.

There were 3 cranes when I drove by on Monday. There were 4 on Saturday, but the 4th one was probably erecting the third tower crane. I was at the wheel, so couldn't look for more than a second or two. 

Oh wow I didn't realize another one had gone up, thanks for the info.

It's still odd to see two cranes all the way out in Cypress.

I remember how excited I was about this project in 2015 but it seems nothing really came of it. I rarely see anyone here, even though it was renovated. I guess it's just used occasionally? 

My fiancé and I considered it as a venue but the logistics just wouldn't work. We want a small wedding (around 100) but you could only fit around 80 people up top. They also make you rent each floor out and if you want to cater food and drinks that requires a permit. Not difficult things, just another headache to deal with and deciding how to hold the ceremony then the reception on the roof (for the views) just made it too difficult to mess with.

No one lives up to their username better than you @IntheKnowHouston cheers for the hard work

I'm fine with this turning into Brewery Row or more specifically Space Beer Row

Tower crane base installed at the site.

That's a little taller yeah?

They've been doing soil remediation here for years. Looks like it's almost finished.

Have you seen the design? Is there a park along Westheimer? I may have come across a rendering but there isn’t enough in the background to confirm.

Post it anyway to get us hype

Per usual with Houston projects nowadays. Not enough RE coverage.

The impact of swamplot's death is really being felt. This explains why I've started to follow Austin's RE market more; yall have more exciting things happening.

Still no render huh?

New master plan rendering.

"Phase 1" huh

Is this close to what's happening? That's wild

Turning into a very poplar method of construction too

Wood you look at that...

Not to flex or anything (totally flexing) but I guess us Marathon runners were/will be pretty lucky to be the only ones to walk/run through these

Gotta respect the pride they have in being "value engineered" lol

Where did you see surface parking?

More information from a City Council Economic Development Committee presentation.

https://www.houstontx.gov/council/committees/econdev/20220324/econ-dev-proposals.pdf

There's a brochure on the website with a decent amount of parking in the back.

That song does slap

Whomever* is on the floors directly across from MST's pool are going to have a fun view and vice versa. You can practically see straight into the rooms at Brava

*or whoever I can't remember
