$24M doesn't seem like enough to build a building. Is it?- 558 replies

Perfectly stated. And I agree 100%. It'll be used way more than people imagine. -
Five Oaks Place/Woodside: Office Tower At 1500 Post Oak Bvd.
Dakota79 replied to fernz's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Thank you for the great photos. I am happy with how this building fits in on Post Oak. It looks great from all directions with that nice cluster of high rises. I wonder if the building will be built where Ninfas was, or if that'll be scrapped now.- 594 replies

We can certainly hope! It would be fantastic. A hotel in the area would be nice, too.

Thank you for that nice photo! I haven't been over there in a few weeks. It is amazing how much that street has changed in a few short years.- 594 replies

The old funeral home is being demolished now. I don't know how to post the photo from my phone but it's almost gone.

I wonder if it bothers him that for 100 years before his beloved apartment was built it was a farm. Oh, and the farmers and animals and pastures got "booted". I assume that's totally different.

Seems a bit bitter to me. 30- 40 years as a tenant. Likely at below market rates. They could've owned a place and controlled their destiny.

You are right, but I'm talking about things that are legal anyway. (Which I guess weed is too, in some states). How about the first part of my comment - all the Texas $$$ going to LC?

I agree with you 100%. All Texas plates in Lake Charles. And they have nice new roads, etc. People are going to gamble anyway, so we should keep the $$$ here.

Gorgeous. It would look good where Allen Parkway Village is currently located, or anywhere on the bayou. Video is super cheesy Vegas - but wow! -

COH to 77006 "Your land is too expensive to "give" you a park
Dakota79 replied to trymahjong's topic in City Hall
I'm glad to hear that. The cost is high, but it won't be cheaper 10 years for now so I am glad they "bit the bullet". In the 80s they wanted to close Westheimer from Montrose or so to Taft and make it a walkable restuarant area. Think how cool that would've been. This park will make our quality of life better and increase property values all around it. Houston is on a positve roll for adding green space! Also, I remember in the 80s they thought mass transit was too expensive. Not any cheaper now. -
I would give the odds to just below slim to none. I wish our Texas $$$ wouldn't go to Lake Charles, but alas, it just a wish.
