Are there been any updates on this property?
Doves' previous Instagram account is no longer available. I noticed the restaurant created a new Instagram account sometime this month.
I'm thinking the restaurant may not be moving forward at 5524 Richmond Ave. -

Prego will be relocating soon, likely some time this year. The news was reported in October.
Currently located at 2520 Amherst St, Prego's new digs will still be in Rice Village. It is moving to 5515 Kelvin Dr., Suite 130. Talbots, a clothing retailer, occupies the unit.
Additional details from CultureMap's article:
Prego will remain open at its current location (2520 Amherst) until the new restaurant — currently a Talbots clothing store — is ready to open. Anthony Vu from 2X Studio will design the new space, which will blend elements of the current location with some more contemporary touches.

Prego announced its impending closure on its social media platforms today. The restaurant is located at 2520 Amherst St. Last fall, Prego announced it would relocate within Rice Village to 5515 Kelvin Dr, Ste 130.
Chron.com published an article on the news of Prego's impending closure. The article doesn't provide further details beyond the statement released by Prego.

I'm not very excited about this news. All of those bars mentioned above are Washington bars that serve overpriced drinks, subpar food, and turn into a nightclub after 10pm. This might just be a happy hour place for me.
More importantly, it's going to mess up my Poison Girl weekend nights with overfill from the club
True, but it's possible Melrose could be different. I'm still unsure what Melrose will be. It could be a bar, lounge, nightclub, or restaurant.
I think Sundown Entertainment is partnering with one or both owners of Clarkwood for this forthcoming establishment. Perhaps this will have a similar vibe to Clarkwood, the wine and cocktail bar at 3201 Allen Pkwy, Suite 190. I noticed both Clarkwood proprietors are following Melrose on Instagram, so that's why I'm making the partnership assumption.
Hopefully, more details will be released soon to the public via local news outlets. -

Several occupancy permits were purchased yesterday for 2517 Ralph St:
2517 Ralph St was last home to neighborhood bar La Grange. I'm not sure if the recently purchased permits pertain to a new business moving in or not.
I think the occupancy permits purchased last week are for a new business at 2517 Ralph St. Supposedly, a new venture from Sundown Entertainment is slated for the former La Grange space.
Sundown Entertainment is behind local bar and night club concepts The Sporting Club, The Sugar Room, Clutch, and Todos Santos. Muse is also part of their dining portfolio.
It's possible the name of the business opening at 2517 Ralph St is Melrose. I'm not sure. I'm also unsure of the concept; although I'm leaning towards it being a bar or a lounge.
There is an Instagram for Melrose and registered web domain.
Edit: The business slated for 2517 Ralph St is Melrose. I did a search and noticed the business recently applied for an alcohol permit.

Andy's / Andy's Home Cafe's last day at 1115 East 11th St is July 9. The restaurant is relocating. Andy's hasn't locked down a location yet, according to their response to a comment on Facebook.
Andy's Home Cafe may have found a new home in the Near Northside area.
Recently purchased occupancy permits list the occupant as Andy's Home Cafe. However, the address on the permit is for a Midtown property. It's likely the permit contains an error. Instead of 2121 Main St, Suite A, more than likely the permit is for 2121 N Main St, Suite A.
Andy's Home Cafe sold its longtime property at 1115 E St to Magnol last summer.

- 1 story occupancy inspection permit

Details from the permits:
- Use: Occupancy report/ restaurant/ 1,410 sq ft.
- FCC Group: Non-residential alteration
The listed occupant on the permits is Andy's Home Cafe; however, the permits are for a Midtown address. More specifically, the address on the permits pertains to the former Greyhound bus station.
I think the address on the permit may be incorrect.
It's likely Andy's Home Cafe may be leasing a unit in the Christina Center. Perhaps the permit is for 2121 N Main St, Suite A; whose previous occupant was Takeria HTX? Takeria HTX closed recently.
Previously, Andy's Home Cafe was located in the Norhill neighborhood. The restaurant closed its doors at 1115 E 11th St; selling the property to Magnol, a local French bakery.
