  1. Megatel Homes plans lagoon community in Santa Fe, Texas - Houston Business Journal (bizjournals.com) "The property is located south of FM 517, adjacent to the Lakes of Bay Area subdivision, and wraps around several residences along Jack Beaver Road, according to a land use map submitted to the city.

  2. Texas A&M Space Institute first tenant in NASA's planned Exploration Park - Houston Business Journal (bizjournals.com) "On Feb. 15, TAMU System Chancellor John Sharp and Vanessa Wyche, director of NASA’s Johnson Space Center, signed a ground lease committing the two entities to over 30 acres of space on land near the JSC for the $200 million Texas A&M Space Institute announced last year. The site is part of approximately 240 acres of space that is currently undeveloped and outside JSC's controlled area, which means access restrictions will be looser, Wyche said. NASA hopes to turn the land into a multipurpose development known as Exploration Park. The Space Institute is the development’s first tenant."
  3. The single tower recieved $96M in financing back in 2022. Haven't heard much about it or the rest of the project until this piece in the DBJ today, discussing Hoque's other projects. "Under the proposed development agreement, Hoque would be required to obtain a building permit by the end of 2024 and complete construction of at least 800,000 square feet of residential, office, retail and hotel space by the end of 2027, according to city documents. Hoque has yet to sign the development agreement, as he's waiting for the numbers to make sense on the financing, which needs to be finalized at the same time. The construction price has risen from $320 million to $400 million, according to Hoque. “We're not going to break ground on a $400 million project when it's a 20% higher construction price," he said. “We think it’s going to be the third or fourth quarter of this year, because I think interest is going to get cut. If I'm a betting man, I think third or fourth quarter of this year, we'll break ground on this building.”

It was slated to be another housing development when it was discovered in 2011. A fundraising effort was led by Bayou Land Conservancy in 2013.
