Since I started checking this forum I've been let down by announcements. So perhaps they're trying to uplift me by just building without an announcement

Could they put a Marriot style glass facade on it?

Too much talk. We scared it away.

Sorry for the ignorance, but in the (theoretical) highway realignment downtown, what would this 45/59 location look like?

I think Houston is filled with faintly "imprisoning" looking facades, some I like some I do not. But (and maybe I'm being generous) I think the Cathedral handsome when taken in from a distance.

On the subject of tall buildings in Midtown, I'm trying to work this out: there is this redevelopment, the office component of the superblock, and the handsome Louisiana at Anita block, and of course this (http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/30772-residential-high-rise-proposed-for-midtown/) which may or may not be this.

You know that melancholy feeling when you're excited for something that you think you should be disappointed in.

I agree, Utterly--the rendering has some odd features: it creates a handsome view for a brief moment only to be obscured by the highrise and become a view of an alleyway. I wonder if something is supposed to be in that crevice--like a line of hedges or something.

I'm probably naive, but if 45 was buried, this might be quite the marketable corner. I imagine that that concept I saw on paper, perhaps earlier this year was just that: conceptual.

We do have lots and lots of land, and prohibitive land features warrants more creativity--and height. But I'm ecstatic about the Northeast quadrant of downtown--southeast of Main, northeast of the Park.
