    I thought so, just making sure. But yeah Dallasboi just look at the picture map of all the projects that are supposed to follow Houston Pavilions and The Park in the next couple of years. What we're going through now is probably a Phase II or III just like Victory is being done in phases. I guess one could say Phase 1 of downtown eastside development probably started around the Toyota Center and Hilton Americas. Very similar to Victory.

    I just noticed something by looking at c4smok's map. All the projects and surrounding developments around the park and Pavilions on this part of downtown to me definitely looks to almost rival the Victory developement. I know its not larger but could it be almost close to the same size as Victory? Look at the map. Seeing how the developments tie in to eachother, It's becoming more clear now how the topic starter thought to make the comparison. BTW:I'll try to find a pic of Victory overlook. Or If someone has one already please post it.

    Today I saw the bridge underneath Fannin as you suggested. I must say it was alot wider than it was when I first saw it. I think they've been adding on alot over the last couple of weeks.

    Thanks Trae. That kind of makes me even more mad that they left light rail out of the I-10 plan. What were they thinking? That could've really drawn more pedestrians from around the city. I don't see how a pedestrian development won't be Transit oriented. Bad planning Houston, Bad planning!

    Forgive my ignorance, but where exactly is this thing going up? I was at Memorial City Mall the other day with my fiance and all i saw was the Hospital directly across the street on the other side of Gessner. I even tried driving around a bit and couldn't find this development so i guess that means its not where i thought it was. Is it on the other side of I-10 opposite Memorial City mall?

    How do you know this? The bridges seem a little small to be able to handle foot traffic and retail.

    Cool find musicman. I feel like a bird going over downtown/midtown. WEEEEEE!!!! Although this thing is a little outdated, The Houston Pavilions and Discovery Green are still parking lots. Oh and thanks for the article lockmat

    I never said i understood it. Just go to dallasmetropolis.com and go to the sub forums. A poster by the name of GuerillaBlack is posting projects and a few dallas forumers on there have attacked him. I always try to put the dallasites in their place when they start the ranting and raving. My user name is ComingtoHouston. You'll see what i'm talking about

    Not to get controversial but i visit dallasmetropolis alot and some people on there hate it someone posts information about Houston. They automatically take it as a Houstonian trying to proove to them how great Houston is over Dallas. Maybe Dallasboi was just happy to see Victory starting to get more recognition and its easy to come off as :in your face" when you're excited about your city.

    Are you MIDTOWNer or his close relative or something? Your signature matches his mindset.

    So coming up on 2 years since the most recent update, i guess its safe to assume this project's dead. Anyone with any other info?

    The article was an interesting read but why did it say it was being created over within seven city blocks? Maybe i misunderstood the way it read.

    True Dat!

    Look you don't have to agree with me, I was just making my own observation and stating what I perceived it to be. Also stating possibilities as to why a few others on this topic have said the park seemed cramped. I wasn't getting all technical on the actual square footage of the place vs the park. I could care less!
  18. C2H
    I really don't know if they are larger. I was just saying that the restaurants appear to be taking up more space in the actual park than they do in the diagrams, thus resulting in what appears to be a more cramped space.
  19. C2H
    From looking at the diagram and seeing the actual park itself, it appears that the restaurants are smaller and take up less space in the drawings, but in the actual park, the restaurants take up more space than anticipated, thus taking away park space and appearing cramped.

    After reading the comments at the bottom of the article, Houston can not shake off that word. UGLY. I can't see why peolpe are always using the word ugly to describe Houston. Is it anymore ugly than NYC, Chicago, Miami, or LA, or any big city? I don't think so.

    It was a nice turnout. I'll be sure to visit Victory my next visit to Dallas. Just gotta let me know when the next game is happening so i can see some people! *** Just having fun Dallas. ****

    Based on those pics, D/V was looking good new years. There were alot of people there.
  23. C2H
    I'm not as excited about this park. The space is too cramped and everyhing is on top of eachother. Maybe things will look different when the park is complete.
  24. C2H
    ^^^LOL.. Where did you score that pic
  25. C2H
    I could be wrong but i think all 3 blocks do have 3 levels. Perhaps you're confusing the block with the tower to be an extra level maybe?
