    The view of GRB from Discovery Green is much more pleasing to look at with the new grand entry facade.

    Interesting how the building is dynamic from some views and subtle from others. Here's a subtle view...

    The pool's lights change colors at night.

    How was the Shake Shack opening?

    I agree. IMO, this view more accurately captures Houston than the commonly used view from I-10. It also reinforces Houston as the Bayou City.

    Thanks...pic is fuzzy from the early morning "haze"

    Yes, this is below the garage, and there seems to be room for more GFR below the tower itself.

    Juxtaposition of two Hines projects.

    Roof angle not visible from this view.

    This building makes its mark from Buffalo Bayou Park.

    Crane is up.

    Looks like the build out of the new CVS is about to get underway.

    OT, but the grass at Disco Green is :-/

    Go to your profile and click on 'My Attachments', click on the attachments you want to delete to take you to the original posting and delete from there. It took me a minute to figure it out.

    Wonderful pic of our city. If you asked most ppl who don't live here "where is this", I doubt they would know. #Houston'sManySkylines

    How did you delete your pics? I went into my attachments, but don't see where to actually delete them.

    The back cash registers at Phonecia are used during weekday lunch hour, which is always packed.

    Apparently Twitter users have taken "issue" with the use of HTX instead of HOU... http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Houston-Super-Bowl-Host-Committee-boasts-9178252.php

    Yes, Williams (Transco) Tower is imo the most 'iconic' Houston building. Most people assume it's our tallest rather than Chase Tower given it's location.

    I agree with this. Houston, generally lacks long-term vision/purpose for public spaces. We're getting better in terms of focusing on green/outdoor spaces, but I would agree that form should follow function.

    I don't get too bummed about it. Houston is a Sunbelt city, which also has multiple areas (Galleria, Medical Center) that would rival the DTs of other urban areas. We're getting there, but I think its easier to create density in urban areas with zoning laws and natural boundaries (i.e., Lake Michigan, Puget Sound).

    Cool. My children graduated from there.
