    There were 5 deeds recorded on this property this past January, from 7200 Main Corporation to 5 different entities for 5 different portions (7200 Center 1, Inc., 7200 Center 2, Inc., etc.). I’m guessing this portends a 5 building plan for the site. Edit: Deeds can be found as Harris County Clerk File Nos. RP 2022-3138 through RP 2022-3142.

    I love this kind of scale. A wonderful way to modestly boost density with infill.

    No. What am I looking for? Is it the spire on the outline of the building in the background?

    I was promised this tower in 2013. Where’s my goddamn tower, Chevron? The Museo Plaza 58-story tower.

    So, to sum up, Related Companies and Related Group are related companies, but Related Group is not the same as Related Companies.
  6. houstontexasjack
    But yes, it looks like Related Group is the particular company looking in Texas. A fellow named Kevin Wisdom signed the “Notice to Purchaser,” and the article below indicates he’s part of Related Group: https://www.dallasnews.com/business/real-estate/2017/12/15/miami-real-estate-billionaire-with-trump-ties-opens-dallas-office/?outputType=amp Edit: @Urbannizer - I guess a more appropriate title would be “Related Group” not “Related Companies,” because although the entities are related, they apparently are not closely related. 😆

    The Related Companies website lists Related Group as an affiliated company. They are related: https://www.related.com/regional-offices

    @Urbannizer - Can we change the thread title to “Related Companies Acquires 3 Acres at 2001 Hermann Dr?”

    Looks like Related closed on the property under a new entity called “RD Hermann, LLC”:

    I found a Memorandum of Purchase Contract. Looks like an entity affiliated with Related Companies put this under contract: Here’s a link to some of their residential projects: https://www.related.com/residential

    My understanding is that TXDOT has included a deck above the freeway in its plans but has not included the landscaping of the parks per the technical team from the City of Houston: https://www.letstalkhouston.org/nhhip So, TXDOT would pay for the most expensive/challenging part of a cap park (the deck) in this area. Getting the deck built was the biggest difficulty with Klyde Warren park in Dallas.

    This gives me Le Corbusier vibes for some reason.

    It’s a wonderful weather balloon. There’s so much parking in Houston that just sits vacant. I’m excited for the experimentation a development like this allows. Also, the scale of the project could work in other higher cost neighborhoods nearby transit if it works.

    The listing isn’t up yet but a “for sale” sign also is up by the parking lot across the street: This improves the chances the site could still be used as a sort of hospital. However, a physician friend told me the operating rooms at this building might be too small for any specialty other than pain management, so the medical buyer pool could be very limited.

    I haven’t heard anything on this particular site. It’s just south of Boone Manor and just north of the proposed X Houston. The X Houston site was formerly one of the parking lots that served the spine center. There’s another smaller lot to the east of Crawford that also has parking. The site itself has minimal parking—not enough to operate a hospital with OR visits. My hunch is this is being sold for the land, with the idea that someone will want to go vertical with it.

    I took this shot to try to get an angle for an “apples to apples” comparison with the rendering:

    Fencing is down and an excavator is on-site. Groundbreaking looks imminent:
  19. houstontexasjack
    There’s a deed of trust from April 2020 on this site (Instrument RP-2020-166598) Looks like a dollar amount to cover preliminaries before construction commences (e.g. impact fees).

    “Where R&D meets R&R” New signage out up by Greentown Labs:

    From the rooftop park at the MFAH: Edit: To get the link to show the picture within the app.

    I thought that the dog park was first in line with a groundbreaking next year. There have been a bunch of signs put up describing “The Commons” in that area.

    Pretty deep hole with the demolition:
  24. houstontexasjack
    An excavator and dump trucks were onsite today moving dirt on the parking garage site. Looks like construction on that may be ramping up.

    That’s fugly. You normally play the role of rendering Santa this time of year @Urbannizer. I guess you’re going with Krampus this year to change things up.
