    More info confirming they are not changing the facade and interior photos: http://houston.eater.com/2015/9/14/9325991/tarakaan-open-midtown-houston#4832840

    As Maxwell Smart used to say, "missed it by that much."

    This building looks amazing and it's going to get better as it ages. Thanks for the overhead shot, Larry!

    You can't see it in fkp5's photo, but the mini tower crane (some speculated concrete pump) base is installed on the North end of the hole. edit: Just kidding, a small section of the top is visible above the sand next to the white truck.

    Over the line!

    My guess is that it's for meetings, office space, or some super basic bowling lessons? http://www.yelp.com/biz/houston-womens-bowling-association-houston

    On the Hadley side, the restaurant is Tarakaan. Apparently this was announced in April, but I'm just now hearing about it. They have some interior shots on their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/tarakaanhouston/photos_stream They're also hiring for all positions if anyone knows someone that wants a service job.

    Not sure which grow faster; this, Skyhouses, or weeds.

    There are a good number of concrete trucks queued at the site. Looks like they're starting to pour the slab for the bottom level of the garage.

    This is the equivalent of a homeless lady getting transformed into a super model and you're complaining about her shoes?!?!?! But honestly, it does kinda bug me now that you pointed it out. Her shoes are hideous.

    And with the birth of the monorail, HAIF will come out with pitchforks demanding Monorail Level Retail and wondering who could have possibly been in favor of GFR.

    Are you sure you attached the correct file? This appears to be the prototype for a new tower crane design that has only been partly installed...

    Not sure if the first two renderings have been posted before, but it's the first time I've seen them. The CC entry will be a nice complement to DG. http://www.archpaper.com/news/articles.asp?id=7645#.VecANflk_xW

    I've been hoping that someone can take an above shot from 2016 Main... as a bonus, we'll get to see the beautiful Alexan Midtown.

    It looks like they're missing some bricks on the top right side of the corner column. I was there when they laid the bricks and didn't notice that before.
  16. phillip_white
    Did they change the name to Residences on Market Square?
  17. phillip_white
    Have you heard anything about what's going in on the Hadley side? The initial rendering showed a restaurant going in, but it doesn't seem like much work has been done lately. There's also a pallet of bricks outside on the corner, so I wasn't sure if they're considering throwing a brick veneer on... Not that there's nearly enough to do much of anything.

    From what I hear, it's only open Friday and Saturday night. I walked by last night on the way to the rail stop and there were about 100-150 people outside waiting to get in.
  19. phillip_white
    Yeah, walked by today and the clock looks the same. I usually see it from the ground, so maybe it was being on 45 that made it look different. I did notice however that they added some Central Square decals on the ground-level windows.

    It seems they've changed the name of the lounge portion to Cle, which is now open. There are some photos of the remodeled inside on their Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/clehouston The outside section is still not complete, with the pool having never been poured. Not sure why the delay.
  21. phillip_white
    Please don't rush to excitement, but can someone confirm whether or not the clock has been blasted or perhaps repainted a dark grey? I drove by on 45 around 8 this evening and the paint looked a lot darker. It may have been the lighting but it was enough to get me hopeful.

    Or, why not go full float like the Dutch? http://time.com/2926425/the-floating-homes/

    I take back my blech. This news about the paint is a GAME CHANGER.
  24. phillip_white
    blech!

    Not too much water in the hole and they're still digging on the South side this morning. They've installed some of the rebar for the garage columns on the North side. As for the wall, I can understand the need for a wall around the pool but it sucks they have it on the McGowen side as well.
