    Great looking tower

    I like the design. It is unique when wraps can feel cookie cutter.

    They just need to build that parking garage already

    As long as they don't end up like that vacated building downtown that no one wants to tear down or renovate. I agree it will be interesting to see how cities across the country deal with the issue of aging towers 40+ floors in height that have no architectural appeal.

    Yup. thanks

    I am pretty sure Allen House can't be touched. Low income housing and historical.

    You're right. Not sure about this site.

    The bros have to live somewhere before going to their bars and clubs.

    I like the podium. It is a lot like the Hannover BLVD project. I have seen the demo crews onsite

    This a fantastic addition to the skyline. I like the positioning and it fills a gap. I feel the Minute Maid angle is the best view. Glad this is kicking off so soon and not just a dream.

    And Block 58 is listed as 50 stories

    The western portion is in the 500-year flood plain http://www.harriscountyfemt.org/

    It makes sense to start the base. The previous articles mentioned that they were close to signing a couple tenants that would need to move in 2020 or 2021. Those dates are already aggressive for a structure this size but getting started would at least pose them to get it built quicker once the land the tenants.

    Still can't find a rendering. Not even on the developer's website.

    The hard part is what happens to the residents if they get pushed. This area works because its an empty industrial site. Development slows if you don't have low income housing mixed in if you go into the fifth ward. You can see that slow downs with that type of expansion in areas like the second, third, and fourth wards, and near northside. There are areas that have historical designations and low income housing requirements. My hope is projects like this one bring in construction and service industries jobs that can be filled with the surrounding population and help lift everyone.

    That is one heck of a vision

    It did what it was designed to do. I am glad there are parks and trails in the flood area so it looks nice the vast majority of the time it isn't flooded. The bayou could be a overgrown, trashy wasteland it once was that floods or it could be great parks, trails, and dog parks that are highly enjoyable that also flood.

    The other two Caydon projects that have filed for FAA permits

    Midtown is changing fast. Adding a 21, 27, 29, and two more unknown floor counts in the next ~5 years will really change the skyline of that area.

    It is a little offset from Wilshire so it shouldn't affect any direct views.
