Originally posted by Urbannizer, March 21, 2016 in the previous thread for First Church of Christ Scientist @ 1720 Main St. From Houston Chronicle: A downtown church with a dwindling congregation has sold its urban sanctuary to a group planning to remodel the property as a special events venue. The property at 1720 Main went on the market in January and attracted multiple offers, said the listing broker who sold it for the First Church of Christ Scientist. "We had seven legitimate offers," said Shawn Baksh of Trotwood Realty, who listed the 15,625-square-foot site for $2.25 million. The church has owned the land since 1908. Its downtown population has declined over the years, but there are other sanctuaries of the same denomination in the Bellaire and Friendswood areas. The 11,000-square-foot building was developed in 1961, replacing an older chapel. It sold for above asking price, Baksh said. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/Downtown-church-changes-hands-6926218.php The former First Church of Christ Scientist (photo: KevenAlvarado)

Considering it says it’s raising money on nextseed “to complete construction”, id bet that they’d not want to go too far down the rabbit hole without that funding. I think the round doesn’t close until Nov because they’ve extended the deadline??

I saw this on Facebook and it looks like a tenant for Re:Vive's the Stomping Grounds development in Houston. This is the development under construction in Garden Oaks at 1225 W 34th St. From a photo posted to Facebook from Construction Concepts, The Original Ninfa's spin-off Mama Ninfa's Tacos y Tortas may be opening at the Stomping Grounds. One is also opening at Understory in Captiol Tower in downtown Houston (thread about it in the Going Up forum). This looks like it could be part of the Stomping Grounds. Maybe in building D. It's a 3,402 SF space from the last site plan made public (posted above). Building D is not shown any of the renderings for the Stomping Grounds. PaperCity magazine interviewed Legacy Restaurants last summer and discussed plans for more Mama Ninfa's Tacos y Tortas: “We’re looking pretty hard in various locations — The Heights, Garden Oaks areas, the Rice Village area. Washington Avenue is a possibility as well,” Horowitz notes. https://www.papercitymag.com/restaurants/original-ninfas-restaurant-expansion-houston-uptown-tacos-y-tortas/ There is also a company entity named TYT-34th from Legacy Restaurants (The Original Ninfa's on Navigation). It could be that it's for Stomping Grounds or somewhere else on W 34th St. This was posted yesterday on Facebook: (flipped image) (unflipped image)

It sounds like a fantastic reuse of the building.

I'm reading that as they've already raised equity of $1.8m (including $750k in cash) to pay for the estimated $1.8m construction cost. The Nextseed campaign will be used to pay off the construction debts, freeing up capital for operating expenses. Also, the Nextseed funding round doesn't close until Nov 15th. Add to that processing and transfer time. If they need that money for construction, this project is going to be majorly delayed.

A higher res rendering (and clearer) of The Stomping Grounds at 1225 W 34th St (on the corner of W 34th St and Alba) in Houston. There is a sign in the back for a Pizza slice shop and an ice cream shop. In the front possible health food restaurant and a neighborhood grill. So possible tenants they're looking for or have signed on.

UPDATED SCHEDULE PER NEW COMMENT ON NEXTSEED: February 2018: Construction kicked off Nov 2018: Anticipated completion of building construction and patio layout <-- Even December seems ambitious based on the current state of the site. ???? 2018: Training of staff and final finishes to be completed Late Feb/ Early Mar 2019: Anticipated soft opening for America Gardens in East Midtown I'm really rooting for this project, but they're blowing through all of their target dates. Even if the pre-fab structure is behind schedule, you'd think they would start on site work including pouring the slabs and drive-through areas, grading, sidewalk improvements, etc. I hope there's not bigger issues going on behind the scenes.

Here's something from the nextseed page for the place that might inform some of the perceived delays. Page lists January 2019 as their soft opening now: Jul 10, 2018 Going by the site it appears that all work has come to a stop, and that no work has occurred in quite sometime. When do you expect construction to resume, and given the current status, do you think the posted delivery schedule is still accurate? Issuer Jul 10, 2018 Maja, The building is a prefab so it is being made off-site. There were a few issues so they had to fix a couple of things. So the building will be brought over and placed on site. So we should not be too off schedule. All the plumbing, slab, and utilities are already connected. Hope this helps and have a great day. Shawn

Camerata wine bar is expanding to Garden Oaks' Stomping Grounds at 1225 W 34th St. From Eater Houston: The beloved Montrose destination for wine and small bites, Camerata, has announced plans to expand to the Oak Forest/Garden Oaks area. Camerata in the Oaks, is slated to debut next spring at 1225 West 34th Street in the forthcoming Stomping Grounds development. The 1500 square foot location will mimic its sister outpost with a 10-seat space designed by Sean Garrison from Garrison Designs and Chris Nguyen. At the new 22,000 square-foot Stomping Grounds, Camerata will join other as-yet-unnamed retail and restaurant ventures within a revamped industrial indoor/outdoor space. Designed as a retail wine store with a bar, Camerata will have a number of sommeliers on hand to guide drinkers, plus the shop will carry domestic and international beer. Drinkers can also take away pre-packaged food items from Paulie’s like cured meats, cheese, pasta, and sauces, plus sweets to eat at the bar or take home. Camerata sommelier Tony Stein will be making to the move to Oak Forest to serve the general manager for the new location, which is opening five years after the original Camerata opened in Montrose (and 20 years after its sister restaurant Paulie’s debuted there). “Camerata in the Oaks will mirror Camerata at Paulie’s commitment to small production, high-quality, minimal-intervention wine,” Chris Poldoian, Camerata Wine Director and General Manager, said in a statement. “Our goal with the wine shop is to introduce residents of Garden Oaks and Oak Forest to new varieties and regions in an approachable, friendly way.” https://houston.eater.com/2018/7/10/17555246/camerata-garden-oaks-expansion

Has any one reported more on I did some online sleuthing and found out who's moving into the First Church of Christ Scientist building. The owners of Clé in Midtown (2301 Main) are opening a club here. The TABC notice lists 1702 Main LTD, an entity established last month by Houston MS Management LLC. Other shell companies associated with Houston MS Management are Cle' Parking, LLC, a shell company for Club 2301 (Clé) and Sd Nightlife Investments, LLC, both listing Clé co-owner Salim Dehkordi.

It's an ironic use, though, considering that devout Christian Scientists don't drink.
