    The rightmost parking area already exists and is under the transmission lines that run adjacent to the train tracks. The dark green plot along westheimer is the only other portion that will be developed. The two green areas to the north will remain as park space.

    Groundbreaking soon. Here’s the site plan. Park Place Site Plan.pdf

    Getting shorter? Gables Westcreek is 15 stories, so about the same height as The Wilshire. The building(s) to the north looks about the same height and the one fronting San Felipe (which is supposed to be an office building), across from Arabella is about 8, which seems right as RD doesn’t want to obstruct his condo views. These building were always in the plans. The building(s) in-between gables and the office building are likely the two high-rise apartment buildings referenced in this 4 year old article. http://www.olivermcmillan.com/buzz/news/286/tall_buildings_to_rise_near_river_oaks_district

    He’s been sick for a while. This project is a legacy move.

    So ready for Mendocino Farms to open, which will have great synergy with Flower Child. https://www.mendocinofarms.com/uptown-park/

    Yes, not at Park Place.

    Just based on the way it looks, my money is on a W. NYLO brand is brick/ industrial (not glass) and not as vertical.

    Yup, Ouzo Bay and a sister concept, Loch Bar, were announced a while back but haven't started construction until recently. Until recently, the inside of each unoccupied space was literally dirt. So that explains why the new concepts have taken a while to open (e.g. MAD).

This is NOT the County Building north of Public Storage.

    https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2018/06/04/developer-new-heights-waterworks-apartments-will.html Broadstone Waterworks is going to be 8 stories with 309 units. 45% more units with about 40% more land. More units = more parking so depends on how they do the parking (podium or separate structure). If parking is a separate structure then it'll probably be 8-10 stories.

    Not sure why there's so many tears about not having a path along the bayou. If you want that, then go to BBP or one of the other many bayou paths around Houston. Plus, its not like the bayou is eye-pleasing.

    See Urbanizer's post two pages back: Phase 2 begins construction in 2020, consists of Apts with GFR. The Luxury hotel is no longer consider part of phase 2. But this is just semantics.

    Houston, brought to you by Hanover. Love it.
  14. LBC2HTX
    Yes its the phase 2 lot, but i'm not sure they're going to start phase 2 yet. Technically the Equinox hotel, which is moving forward, is not part of ROD phase 2.
  15. LBC2HTX
    Lets hope its more Post Oak than the Aquarium or Kemah Boardwalk

    Bold prediction- Ocean 44 opens here.

    The Heights-based restaurant group will begin the roll out of its three EaDo concepts — Vinny’s, Miss Carousel, and Indianola — sometime this month (in that order) http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/10-03-18-food-news-roundup-chilosos-pluckers-mias-table-cafe-adobe-walks-on-genesis-steakhouse/#slide=0

    You can in fact, see the Equinox signage on the second floor of the retail building. I can almost guarantee that the "lifestyle center" apart of Phase I will be Equinox.

    Depends on who you ask. Its easier to say what its not- River Oaks, Afton Oaks, Royden Oaks, Oak Estates, or Lynn Park. Some in real estate refer to it as "Briar Hollow" or Highland Village. Most people will refer to it as River Oaks or Uptown. Despite all of the River Oaks branding, as a resident I prefer to refer to it as Uptown.

    Renderings for renovations on the corner of Amherst and Kelvin, where Talbots used to be. These are NOT the renovations mentioned in the HBJ article.

    Couldn’t disagree more 1) there isn’t THAT much cohesiveness from 610 to the train tracks, or beyond HV for that matter. The only thing cohesive about is all is that there’s dining/shopping along the north side of westheimer. 2) there’s still going to be ground floor retail 3) this board always complains about underutilized plots and not building tall enough, this does both 4) ROD, HV and even uptown park are struggling to bring in tenants, which is probably why the previous proposal got axed. Plus they still have the east green space for future development. 5) this will look less out of place with Equinox Hotel, ROD phase 2 and further development along west creek.

    Correct.
