The Allen: Mixed-Use Development At Allen Parkway & Gillette St.
invisibletrees replied to jmontrose's topic in Going Up!
Hey, it's a good selling feature for those who'll be interested in a condo here! Views of Downtown that will never be obstructed. I love how they've placed so much on 6 acres, utilizing the plot very well. This is how you do a mixed-use development.- 1,657 replies

Texas Tower: Office Skyscraper At 845 Texas Ave.
invisibletrees replied to democide's topic in Downtown
moo. Too much "traditional" going on already. We need a new architectural art-piece for Downtown. Something very modern, raises the bar and stands out, yet classy. Hines may stick to Pickard Chilton which is nice, but their recent designs are pretty similar to one another and I'm sure they can do more. Hopefully Hines goes with SOM or Zaza Hadid, even though the latter may be extreme for them. The chronicle block a +50 office tower and the garage block a ~40 story 5-star hotel with condo units above.- 2,216 replies

I can see drivers using the driveway instead of the roundabout as a quicker way to go right. Some may even be confused and thinks it's the roundabout.- 35 replies

One Market Square: Proposed Office Tower For Block 43 - 800 Preston St.
invisibletrees replied to lockmat's topic in Downtown
This is not on hold, so don't say it is unless you having info proving so. Again, it's only been a little over a month since the last update and soil testing was done back in July. I'm sure Stream Realty was well aware that Hines would be the first out of the ground. Things take time.- 989 replies

One Market Square: Proposed Office Tower For Block 43 - 800 Preston St.
invisibletrees replied to lockmat's topic in Downtown
the last update which was just over a month ago, confirmed that the project is still in-development. "After the Hines announcement, Stream said the company is “still excited” about its project and is “working on it;” however it was not ready to announce anything."- 989 replies

800 Bell St. (Former Exxon Building) Conversion to Residential
invisibletrees replied to TheNiche's topic in Downtown
Well I'm sure that there will be many against it, enough that they'll attempt to stop them. Once 800 Bell is extensively renovated, there will be no need for it to go back to the original look 20 to 40 years from now. Unreasonable to lose square footage, and it will cost more $$$.- 690 replies

800 Bell St. (Former Exxon Building) Conversion to Residential
invisibletrees replied to TheNiche's topic in Downtown
Developers & owners know which towers are icons to Houston, and other cities. If one of those towers are redeveloped significantly, there would be a lot of people against it. You'd see "stop the Penzoil Place redo!" signs all over downtown.- 690 replies

800 Bell St. (Former Exxon Building) Conversion to Residential
invisibletrees replied to TheNiche's topic in Downtown
It is highly unlikely. The most I expect they would do after the building is redeveloped is refresh the interior, if needed 20 to 40 years from now - and reducing square footage to go back to the original form decades from now may be more unreasonable because there may be a time again in the future where office space will not be greatly available downtown. The building will not only go under a major redo because of new towers proposed, but because of how the building is somewhat isolated today. 20 to 40 years from now, the surrounding area may see more development and become attractive enough to where the owner may not see a need to do anything to the building, or be a factor why a tenant or tenants decides to stay in the building. Some people may like the current state of 800 Bell, but there are many others that find the building outdated. Some unique buildings here in Houston that will always look how they stand today are Pennzoil Place, Bank of America Plaza, JP Morgan Chase Tower, Williams Tower - icons. Those are buildings people who don't know downtown Houston well can name when thinking of buildings in this city, 800 Bell and One Allen Center are not. A tower going under similar redevelopment right now is 100 Van Ness in San Francisco. The biggest difference though is that the tower is being converted from office to residential use, but it's also getting the new all-glass look. You won't see Transmerica Pyrmaid in San Fran receiving a new look. Why? Because it's a icon to that city. My point is that many towers receive a new look, and they all don't go back to their "original look".- 690 replies

Yes. It will just be an empty parking lot with a fence around it.
