    I see on the 609 webcam a great deal of activity there and several other construction sites. By the way great job as usual Hindesky.

    Great photo.

    The high rise apartment and garage is suppose to go up on the west side of the lot whereas the east side is to be a surface parking lot unless the flipped the sides ( which I do not know if that is possible). Has anyone asked them what is afoot?

    I think that is the 8 story Alexan downtown under construction.

    I am not saying the company head is, but if he is like Caligula, no expense is too trivial if they are present for the groundbreaking . Better safe than sorry.

    I'm not telling my twin daughters this. Bankrupt me.

    Serious digging going on today at this site.

    Any Haifers work for a spy agency with access to good on time imaging? If you could share it, we won't tattle.

    I've been watching it also, just cannot positively tell what is happening.

    This is such a choice spot for a hotel, I suspect it is just a matter of time before one is built. The energy industry is going through rough seas, but this (and much worse) has happened before. I suspect investors are hesitant at this moment. Look at the delays on Camden, block 98, six houston center, 1600 Louisiana, etc. This has nothing to do with referendums and everything to do with return on investments. Houston is a great city and has a bright future . Just look at all the developments at and near the TMC. The energy industry will also turn around. Fret not.

    Rats!

    Very impressive. Has a groundbreaking been announced?

    Something is afoot on that lot today, but I cannot tell using the 609 cam.

    Alessandra first, block 334 second, HSPVA eventually

    Hope it is built soon. It will be a few feet shorter than the domed county building in the foreground. It will enhance the eastern skyline view. With all the new apartments/hotels should get this area hopping. Can't imagine retail is too far behind.

    Emporis place 1,2, 3 as The Huntington 503 ft, OPP 501 ft, and Market Square Tower 498 ft. Other numbers take into account feet above mean sea level, I think.

    Might become Houston's Avenue Montaigne.

    I think you are on to something

    Basketball practice facility not arena. View is quite good
  20. Twinsanity02
    From a construction cam at U of H ( new basketball arena) the Marriott is visible. Suppose so will the Catalyst and the other high rise apartment north of MM park as well as block 98.
  21. Twinsanity02
    The Catalyst is approx 60 ft shorter than the Marriott Marquis ( according to Emporis). How visible is the hotel from the Eastex or Gulf freeways?

    Now that Gator Purify mentions it, one of the things that puzzles me about Houston with its near Tropical climate is the number of darkish buildings and houses and roofs. It seems a more southern Spain or Greece light color buildings would work better in terms heat reflection. I guess it all comes out to what sells.

    Hindesky's Back!
  24. Twinsanity02
    Yes it would look great. Give it a downtown Chicago look. To get a good before and after, watch the opening scene of Urban Cowboy. Quite a contrast.

    H-Town man. Check out the little photo beneath the Full Member. I think that is it.
