  1. lights alright.. only way to distinguish it from 610. kinda hides in there, another ~4 floors would've been nice.
  2. we should tear down all the heights, put in 50 story high rises with bars and retail ground floor. it'll be like downtown II, we'll call it up..no, mid...no, sidetown~!
  3. that kinda made me sick. but yea its a total landmark and the base of optown...now. galleria isnt going anywhere but UP. if the rail goes in and such, we better get used to higher and higher stuff.
  4. speaking of food, your username is one of my standby's. i wish they'd open more around houston.
  5. yeah, walking... i guess thats tough for any area of houston though. i just remember once i was going from zaza through hermann park to tmc and back around to some of the museums and didnt see one establishment. i dont know where something could even go, but im sure a place close to the big circle at montrose would clean up
  6. lol. so yeah there is basically nothing. where do people who work in TMC eat for lunch?
  7. if they can Ivy it up (ala 610 side of uptown pk by e-trade) I think it'll look nice.
  8. are you suggesting the Westin will have residences? i think its just hotel. the only condos for Memorial City are East of Gessner and the mall itself.
  9. sweet, new rendering looks great. now im craving some papa joes. arent they well-placed to profit off all this new dev?
  10. drove by yest. not many workers, just a couple out sanding some table in front. doesnt look too far off though. tons of clear space just South of it til 19th. also just kind of crazy they would three similar establishments within a few blocks of each other. they must really love the heights. the names are gonna get confusing...
  11. their latest ad in ENVY mag just had me laughing. i dont know how to describe it, just seemed very unprofessional
  12. I think you missed the point....We arent talking about demographics...of course the area is great. I was referring simply to access. You have 2 huge freeways surrounding it and currently the only 2 feeders into the development are the little post office curved road (t&c ln) and the one leading to escalante's (t&c blvd). So my main point was the bw8 feeder going N to 10. IF construction doesnt change before cc opens, this is not a viable access point. Just sucks they could not acquire all the land to 10. Once the roads are finished (yes i believe they will be one day, but not before this centER is ready), it would be ultimate to have I10 and BW8 feeders pull DIRECTLY in , as well as the aforementioned back roads.
  13. loooooooooooooooooooooooool! Uh huh... before this development opens? i wonder. The first few months are very telling for an establishment's success - the way the access is for the forseeable future is a complete joke. which is why i said the developer better cross their fingers...
  14. went by today. oh my god, the traffic. midway better hope the the BW8/i10 disaster gets fixed SOON. hell, throw some of the tribble workers out of the bridges. i was excited about citycentER but will now avoid that area like the plague. from memorial to 10 on bw8 feeder took 25 mins, no wreck. some building looks like it has tenants , AT&T for one. its finished super nice, white exterior w/ some tiling....is this still the center or something else? the ones in the crane area look to be a drab tan color.
