Houston amazes me, half day of rain and the city is under water.
Great sensationalism! Are you a journalist?
The city wasn't underwater. There were some streets and some parks, within the bayou floodway, that flooded. Both are designed to flood.
FYI: Violent rain is defined by a precipitation rate that is > 50 mm (2.0 in) per hour. Some areas got close to 8" within a 3-4 hour period. Several places got around 4" in an hour. -

It would be WONDERFUL if this was somehow reused and not demolished!!!!!!!!!
Why save it though? I understand saving something with historic or architectural significance, but this one is neither and ugly... -

Houston, China to partner on biotech innovation
QuoteA Chinese nonprofit plans to open an innovation center in the Texas Medical Center to focus on fostering cutting-edge biomedical companies.
The proposed China U.S. Biotechnology Innovation Center, also known as CUBIC, will serve as a bridge for Chinese companies looking to invest in Houston, and vice versa. Jiangsu Industrial Technology Research Institute, or JITRI, a nonprofit group based in the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu, plans to invest $3 million to $4 million a year to fund research and help companies expand their footprint abroad.
QuoteLiu has identified a 100,500-square-foot space in the Texas Medical Center, but he did specify the location.
He hopes to open CUBIC sometime this year.
“This center will act as a bridge for companies looking for investments, manufacturing partners and business partners,” Liu said. “We really hope we can attract some Chinese companies to come to Houston.”
The partnership is the latest in a string of announcements that aims to position Houston as the “third coast” for biotechnology and biomedicine after the northeast and the West Coast.

This would be amazing but there are really only 2 places for a 200 acre development like this in Houston. East River or this place.
There's UT's acreage south of the south loop too-

There’s also a biz journals article from a couple of weeks ago behind a paywall with some interior renders. Can anybody access?

I have google earth pro and there is a full block of variant buildings.
Were they demolished recently? I see buildings on my applications.
My bad, I was looking at the empty lot caddy-corner... Sorry, oops.
Edit, @cspwal posted at the same time, maybe it is that lot?-

There is a Ford Raptor in the parking lot in the most recent google street view though. That's pretty nice-

QuoteBut what we’re most excited about is completion of the initial design phase of TMC3, our new city center which will be a true “live, work, and play” environment. It marks the first time in our history of more than 70 years that we’re developing one campus to support multiple institutions.
The TMC3 campus—dubbed the “double helix” for its design that evokes the shape of a DNA molecule—stretches nearly 30 acres and will serve as the nerve center for collaboration and interaction. The base floor of the campus consists of three plazas filled with trees and vegetation, as well as restaurants, retail, commercial and entertainment space to support the community throughout the day and evenings.
The second floor contains shared laboratories so that member institutions can work together with each other and alongside industry experts.
The top of the double helix will be a park that rises 60 feet from the ground and features regular programming. We’ll provide the community with amenities such as walking and running trails, bocce courts, yoga, tai chi, chef gardens, reading hammocks, children’s education gardens, and more. The “helix” park will also bridge across to the bayou greenway system which will provide access points to the entire Houston community.
The campus and park will be beautiful, but that’s not the reason we’re building them. These amenities are essential if we want to attract and retain the millennials who will go on to become the intellectual cornerstone of our medical city.
We are just beginning our journey to transform the Texas Medical Center, and we will continue to work closely with our partners. I’m confident that before long, I’ll see something totally different when I gaze out my window across our bustling medical city.

President and CEO of the Texas Medical Center-

Per comments on from crosscreek and HAG Swamplot:
QuoteSwamplot, here’s a better story for you on Yale:
The Fisher Homes tower on Yale is now fenced off and all construction has stopped. Fisher Homes of Texas website is down, Yelp shows their offices closed permanently across the street. Please tell us what you know or have heard, thanks in advance.
QuoteThey also pulled all listings for 829 Yale off the market. The project was always an eyesore and created a mess along Yale. Then again anything ever touched by Fisher has been a disaster.
-
My guess is that it'll be replaced fairly quickly by the tower in the background.
