  1. A few observations from the most recent Rice Village site plan are below. The observations are pertaining the northeast portion of Rice Village: The unit at 5515 Kelvin Dr is available for lease. Italian restaurant Prego planned to relocate here, but recently announced that's no longer happening. A 941 sf unit is available for lease. In the last site plan, a 1,572 sf unit was shown at lease. The latest site plan reveals Beaufort Bonnet as the tenant. A 1,976 sf unit on Kelvin Dr remains available for lease. The 1,636 sf space at 2401 Time Blvd, Suite 100 remains available for lease. It's the unit next to Skin Spirit at 2401 Times Blvd, Ste 110.
  2. Based on the latest Rice Village site plan linked above, there are no changes (at least, tenant-wise) to the southeast and southern portion of Rice Village:
  3. A few observations from the most recent Rice Village site plan are below. The observations are pertaining the southwest portion of Rice Village: Face Haus recently closed its doors at 2509 Amherst St. The unit is shown as available for lease The unit at 2503 Amherst St, Ste A121, is available for lease. Allbirds, a sustainable shoe store, previously occupied the space. The unit at 6225 Kirby Dr, located between Shake Shack and Lululemon, remains available for lease. Baby Gap and GapKids were the former occupants.
  4. A few observations from the latest Rice Village site plan uploaded yesterday: The northwest portion of Rice Village District is not included in the site plan. The portion includes the properties bordering Kirby Dr, Times Blvd, Kelvin Dr, and Amherst St. There are rumors of a high rise residence for the northwestern block of Rice Village. I guess we'll have to wait and see what Rice Real Estate Company has it store.
  5. The latest Rice Village site plan is available. It's included in leasing materials updated yesterday. Ground floor Second floor
  6. I'm inclined to agree with you. My speculation is Rice Real Estate Company stated the condition of the former Ginger Man "building does not meet current code requirements for occupancy" as a thinly veiled excuse to tear it down. I think the building didn't fit the shopping center's new aesthetics. Still, The Ginger Man did sit vacant for around four years. We, the general public, have no idea if the building's interior was maintained after The Ginger Man's closing. If it wasn't maintained, then there is the possibility it may not have been in the best shape to lease.

  19. You're welcome. I do my best to search the forum beforehand to see if there is an ongoing thread. However, I noticed topics weren't appearing in the search. I began second guessing myself because I remembered seeing the topics. Still, the search brought up nothing. I then scrolled through the forum and found the topic, clicked on it, and it was archived. Now that we know that archived topics is a recent action across the forum, let's hope it can be undone.
  20. Thank you. I see you sent a personal message later in the morning after my post. I appreciate it. I'll respond momentarily. Fingers crossed that the archiving issue can be resolved. Thanks again.
  21. Last month, Community Impact published an article on Sophie. The article provides a little more insight about the concept. As mentioned, Sophie is a new cocktail bar and lounge from La Ciel Hospitality. It's opening soon Montrose Collective. According to an Instagram post from the brand, the bar will span two levels. The upstairs terrace is meant to remind guests of sunset on the French Riviera, and the downstairs bar will be painted darkly with rich textiles. https://communityimpact.com/houston/heights-river-oaks-montrose/dining/2024/03/22/new-cocktail-bar-coming-soon-to-montrose/
