    This was the what was in the city's presentation I think at least planning for the ability to add this in the future would be a good idea

    Wow I only recognize it because of the street sign

    I like that they chose to add red to the brick facade as opposed to demolishing it. It looks good

    Gyms are probably the easiest (pre-COVID) thing to turn a warehouse into - just rent out an empty warehouse, update the A/C, and buy a bunch of treadmills and free weights

    The Post building is under very active construction now The warehouse next to Frankel's had a burst of activity around March/April (some steel trusses went in, probably to replace the roof and add floors), and Frankel's itself seems to be getting cleared out very slowly - every day someone comes with a trailer and unlocks the gate in the back. The HCC building I haven't seen any activity, though the warehouse at Delano & McKinney appears to also have been recently cleaned up to be put on the market

    I've walked by here a couple of times and thought the facade looked interesting

    That's kind of Houston TxDot's thing, building highways

    I believe the midtown TIRZ has been buying land in 3rd ward to hold it/develop it as affordable housing; there was a deeper discussion of it on here a while back but I don't even remember which forum

    Is this going to have a Breaking Bad theme?

    The current building isn't that great. It's possible this might be a massive facelift of the current building, or a new build

    It's from 2015. I wonder what the timeline is on it.
  12. cspwal
    Well at least a surface lot can still be redeveloped into something later

    These look like they're staged to go somewhere else, right? Since there's no gravel underneath them?

    Polk? And I thought any closure of McKinney would be only for thru car traffic

    This development looks great; I hope it will encourage a redone RR crossing on Sampson

    It's a two lane road; it was never safe for cars to pass the bus while it was stopped on the side, but as the bus pulled off a few feet people would pass it. Now the bus will stop in the travel lanes, but the stops should be quicker, as there wont be as much steering

    Some better photos. Looks like they are raising the level of the bus stop. Maybe to reduce the step from stop to bus? Or maybe it's an attempt to fix the drainage issues that the Cavalcade stops have

    Apparently there was a protest today on Polk against the freeway https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/transportation/article/Critics-of-I-45-rebuild-plan-take-protest-to-Eado-15541024.php

    It looks like they had to redo at least one of the bus stops. The bike bypass ramp is demolished, as are the bricks, and the concrete looks higher than it was
  20. cspwal
    It would be nice to have at least one through pedestrian pathway through the convention center, but I don't see how they could realistically do it
  21. cspwal
    Some of the new ramps aren't draining right - a puddle will form at the bottom of the ramp in the mildest of rains

    Stacked 2 car garage
  23. cspwal
    Update: looks like some people are trying to keep the bike lanes passable during trash day
  24. cspwal
    Maybe the name will be "New Bar"

    There's a couple of unusual residences downtown. The office building next to Houston House is actually just a large house; there's a block-sized warehouse in East Downtown that one couple lives in. I'm sure there's more that I haven't discovered yet
