Drewery Place: Multifamily High-Rise At 2850 Fannin St.
MarathonMan replied to Urbannizer's topic in Midtown
Based on the renderings, I assume it will be like Catalyst: podium parking garage wrapped in apparements/retail to make the podium all but invisible. Smart design! EDIT: Renderings removed at the demand of Large arts in Collingwood, Australia. —Editor- 1,569 replies

Drewery Place: Multifamily High-Rise At 2850 Fannin St.
MarathonMan replied to Urbannizer's topic in Midtown
Yes, the little building is becoming the construction office. The Nouveau Antique Bar is a separate building on the other side of the block. The sign is for parking, I believe.- 1,569 replies

Pearl Marketplace At Midtown: Multifamily At 3120 Smith St.
MarathonMan replied to DrLan34's topic in Midtown
The footprint of the building is roughly a block and a half. That's huge. You can fit a lot of cars per level with that kind of base square footage. The buildings you reference as comparisons have many floors and a smaller footprint, which would require more levels of parking to accommodate the same number of cars.- 550 replies

Was this one of Midtown's projects for the Super Bowl? They like to cut it close, eh? -
Camden McGowen Station & Midtown Park At 2727 Travis St.
MarathonMan replied to Subdude's topic in Midtown
Midtown sat on that parcel for AGES before actually moving forward on the project. Then, once they did begin construction, it progressed too slowly. Only after it was too late did they throw huge crews on the site to try to finish on time. And because it's become a rush job, we'll probably be left with shoddy workmanship. This project is just one example of Midtown's deficiency in the capital project management department. They've been advertising a Caroline Street re-do for years with zero progress to-date. Bagby park took ages to complete. Improvements to Baldwin Park a couple of years ago were underwhelming, at best. The lighting "improvements" there are already trashed. Disappointing...... -

Camden McGowen Station & Midtown Park At 2727 Travis St.
MarathonMan replied to Subdude's topic in Midtown
I agree that the "Superblock" park Is not turning out very super in size. It will be nice, but I think the project could have been better if they shifted the apartment development all the way north to McGowen. I don't understand how the open space north of the apartments will be used when the project is complete. On a side note, in my opinion Baldwin Park is Midtown's crown jewel green space. The true Superblock Park of the neighborhood. Yet, it's all but forgotten by Midtown Management. Their motto seems to be, "If it's east of Main Street, it doesn't exist." -
Marlowe: Condominium High-Rise At 1211 Caroline St.
MarathonMan replied to Dakota79's topic in Downtown
What's the deal with the leasing office? Is it going to stay? I can't tell if it'll be razed eventually and filled in with the tower or if it'll be an awkward-looking neighbor. I hope it's the former.- 773 replies

BLVD Place Mixed-Use: 1700 Post Oak Blvd.
MarathonMan replied to Subdude's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
I'd assert that an Uptown development would have little impact on development progress in or near Midtown. Each appeals to a somewhat unique market. Someone looking to live in Midtown is interested in a more urban, pedestrian lifestyle with better public transport (i.e. Light rail). Uptown offers a very different experience.- 2,416 replies

Personally, I like it. It's not earth-shattering design, but it's quality work. It's got class.
