  1. Rhonda Rolex will move out when this starts to get old, and run down... and then rents will be cheap again! and then it will either get a renovation or be demolished... And thus is the cycle.
  2. Kirby is the center between the Galleria / Uptown and Downtown. I think a W or Ritz would be great in this area too... It is exciting to see this street absolultely take off. This building is beautiful. I wonder how those neighbors are feeling about this little change
  3. Nice work. Getting the permit (to me at least) means they have a construction team on tap. which is where many of the delays probably come from.
  4. Not only will it rival, it will beat it. Imagine driving into houston and seeing downtown clogged with cranes. We will literally watch our skyline morph. As developments in midtown and along the bayou come up, it will be humbling to see!
  5. Yeah. Makes nonsense. If they showed everything proposed or under construction, houston would look a lot different!
  6. I see. I wonder if there could be another city with that intersection. Or maybe they left it vague on purpose. We shall see
  7. Is there any property on west gray that could be available? There is a project listed on that site "5th + West" and 5th seems like a street to me. So the same pattern could apply to this?
  8. This site is not "available"... Come on guys. That sign is old. They said a 3q start... Which means we have 2 months left of 3q... And it may even be 4q
  9. This topic would be great in the "upper Kirby" neighborhood thread I proposed...
  10. To be honest, this is one of the primest locations downtown. What if this tower was 80 stories right there... Wow. If Brookfield was smart, they would run an all out blitz and make this the top spot in Texas. They are probably too late though. If they ran the blitz on this property, they should have been the first to break ground. I guess it may not be too late.
  11. I don't mind this building at all. It has quite the interesting history.
  12. have we? Most of the midrise stuff is a mixture of stucco and brick. I agree though - it does look tons better. I hope that large live oak survives. I also wish developers would plant trees that arent just live oaks. Yes, they are easy to take care of, but a mixture of trees would be most fitting for Houston.
  13. Really looking forward to seeing this area change. At some point, there won't be the huge scars in our core. At some point, something will have to be torn down, in order for something new to go up.
  14. I can vouch for Triton. It said Fitzgeralds... Maybe it was a JV? maybe Fitzgeralds will stay there and this is some sort of seperate entity tied to both. Happens all the time.
  15. Just a thought: There seems to be alot going on in upper Kirby / Greenway plaza / River Oaks area. I would dare to say that Westcreek, River Oaks District, Kirby Grove, Azelea, 1717 San Felipe, Thor Equities, etc... all fit best in this page. Seems like this page / area would have plenty to go in it. I would say Uptown / Galleria is a tad bit too large in the area it covers, and its arguable that Galleria should not apply to areas inside of 610. Thoughts on if this is worth creating?
  16. I just noticed this building the other day. Seems like an outlier, but almost a glimpse into the past. I like this building. We will see what happens to it... It seems to be sitting on a decent amount of land.
