    That's the site Micro Center is moving to, which was asked by the user Larry quoted.

    Going on three days with only 5 hours of sleep and I thought the title read 73 story...

    It's not hard and I don't want to give anything away that could tie me back. Just think of the community colleges in Houston and search google...

    True, maybe after Phase 2 this lot will be cleaned up for a potential Phase 3? Here's to holding out hope...
  5. BigFootsSocks
    So is the southern lot on schedule for development as well?

    This is the only plausible explination I can think of and I've been procrastinating for a while. Seriously though, GP has a lot of great potential and I'm excited to see what comes next. Maybe we'll see some new info on the university moving in; they haven't announced anything but if you search for the right thing on Google you'll find some juicy details.

    Question by the uneducated; since PM-Realty bought the Chase building right across the street, is it safe to assume that would become another prime location for redevelopment? Perhaps a Weslayan Part 2?

    No problem, it's on page 32 of the 609 Main thread if anyone's curious.

    I can always count on Larry to provide a great distraction while I procrastinate my school work. Also to stay on topic, this is going up pretty quick. Any ideas what's gonna happen with that beautiful piece of land a few blocks up, as per Larry's pics?

    FMC had a groundbreaking ceremony today in Generation Park.

    New building? Link to an article?
  15. BigFootsSocks
    Yeah you're right, I just expected something a little bit nicer going into Houston's "Premium" Outlets Also, I heard a rumor that Bridgeland is going to be building the next "Mall of America" except bigger. True?
  16. BigFootsSocks
    ^^The North Pond is gonna be ridiculous to dig out. So much work went into that one
  17. BigFootsSocks
    I'd guess they're just the pieces to extend the current one
  18. BigFootsSocks
    I had a lot higher expectations for this piece of land, especially right next to the outlet mall. Oh well
  19. BigFootsSocks
    Any update on what's going on here? There's a couple of small parcels next to the Taco Bell and Whataburger under construction but other than that it's an empty driveway with a bunch of weeds.
  20. BigFootsSocks
    Good point. 3615 Montrose and The Flats on Fairview are both beautiful designs and I would have no issue at all with multiple "small" buildings on this scale if it means building up Houston's core.
  21. BigFootsSocks
    Wow so true. I understand underground wiring is more expensive and time consuming but you'd think we'd at least develop a way to bring that cost down by now. However, after traveling through various Latin American countries, I've learned to be slightly more comfortable with our exposed infrastructure. In Guatemala City I passed through what I thought was a tunnel but turned out to be just exposed wire that completely blocked out the sun. It looks so industrial and was likely put up in a hurry with little to no planning.
  22. BigFootsSocks
    That wasn't my full post...but I agree, the East End could benefit immensely with a project on this scale.
  23. BigFootsSocks
    Por que no los dos? But seriously no, the 50 story is the better option
  24. BigFootsSocks
    I'm not NOT okay with them, but it's kinda disappointing to see all these 50-60story (and supertalls) in other cities around the nation while the best we can get is these little stumps. All in the name of growth, I guess.
  25. BigFootsSocks
    Exactly, that's what I'm saying. We don't have natural beauty on the scale of some cities so we need to do what we can to create our own. This project is a perfect example of that, my only issue is that it doesn't seem like enough. Obviously money is a huge issue but Houston is so hell bent on expanding outward that the inner cores are neglected.
