It's the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts. I liked that photo tour as well, probably it's because it is one of the lesser seen places in the state. Does look like a nice place to visit, though. Might have to make a stop as I plan on heading west on vacation over the summer.

Regent Square: Mixed-Use On Allen Parkway At Dunlavy St.
ChannelTwoNews replied to Travel_n_Transport's topic in Going Up!
I was able to pop into the leasing center briefly recently and can fill you all in on a few things. The leasing center will formally open within 3-4 weeks. They're still finishing up a few things, but from what I've seen thus far, it's quite nice. Not jammed with clutter nor is it closed in. Nice and open, with renderings and the model. Now for a bit of extra info on that model... Each of the residential towers is in the model, though since no specific design has been picked, they're represented by opaque plastic forms which are in the general shape of what I'm guessing the developers intend the towers to look like. There are a few renderings of a glassy, curvy highrise of about 25-30 floors which are partially visible on some printed material on display and in a video that plays in the center. I was a bit pressed for time, but I intend on picking up some of the printed materials when the place formally opens.- 1,536 replies

This one actually topped out two stories taller than the website advertised. It's 13 stories instead of 11.

Houston Methodist Outpatient Center At 6445 Main St.
ChannelTwoNews replied to frid's topic in Texas Medical Center
Actually the heights were changed around the end of last year, at least for the internal version of the site. The heights listed run down like this, and are based on data from the original blueprints. -476.55 Ft to the top of the spires -367.78 Ft to the highest point on the rooftop, Just beneath the spires -293.78 Ft to the highest occupied floor- 164 replies

Embassy Suites Hilton Houston Downtown Hotel At 1515 Dallas St.
ChannelTwoNews replied to ricco67's topic in Downtown
Before this completely devolves into an argument over sign placement, Urbanerd is right. The signs have been on the perimeter of the site for a while. One facing La Branch near Lamar and the other (of which there are two photos of on this page), near the corner of Crawford and Dallas. One, at least, was there prior to the hotel announcement several years ago. At any rate, since April is around the corner, I remain guardedly optimistic that this could get underway in the next few weeks.- 965 replies

Thanks for posting all of this info. I was always curious about the place as the sign for "Westchase Mall" remained along Westheimer until just a few years ago and it kinda confused me since it never looked like what most would consider a mall to be.

KTRK - ABC13 Starting a new Talk Show
ChannelTwoNews replied to citykid09's topic in Houston and the Media
My guess is a periodic weekend program, with the personality filing reports daily or every few days. Basically the shtick Roseann Rogers has done in the past, and to some effect, still does today. I say weekend since KTRK does air a fair amount of station-produced specials on a pretty much weekly basis these days, specifically the 10:35-11:05P spot on Sunday nights. Then again those are generally substantial programs (Last week: Galveston Recovery from Hurricane Ike), so I don't think it would be in that timeslot, but perhaps earlier. -

For a project that's said to be on hold, there's been some amount of activity recently. If you get a look down Mid Lane near the intersection of Westheimer, there are a bunch of concrete columns now up that weren't there within the past few weeks, and there are still a number of people working on the site. The mid-rise that was halted previously, still looks untouched for the moment.

Embassy Suites Hilton Houston Downtown Hotel At 1515 Dallas St.
ChannelTwoNews replied to ricco67's topic in Downtown
They demolished it several years ago, though I think the portion that was built was supposed to be the first phase in a larger project that would've included a traditional-type enclosed shopping mall. I recall seeing a rendering from around the same time that showed as much anyway. What's funny is that I recall seeing it being used in a tourism video circa 1986/87, with scenes of people all over the place. Must've been opening day, another asian mall, or a number of actors hired based on what I remember seeing riding by growing up.- 965 replies

Compass Bank Galleria At 2200 Post Oak Blvd.
ChannelTwoNews replied to Ben2009's topic in Historic Houston
Oh darn and I wanted to set up directly across the street. Sunday morning is of the few times during any part of the week that Post Oak isn't littered with traffic or people for that matter. I'm kinda curious where viewing areas, if any, would be. BTW, maybe this should be merged with the thread about the building/potential development: http://www.houstonarchitecture.info/haif/i...showtopic=16292 -
The building on the extreme left is complete while the small, descending retail building in front of it and the building on the extreme right side are being finished up. Neither the condo tower or hotel (taller and shorter structures respectively) are under construction at the moment, though a garage is.

Yes, the sign facing east, at least, is for South Pointe. Saw it driving by earlier this morning... Just had basic info like the developers' names, #s & website.
