  1. Excellent vantage point! That first photo looks so.... looks so... un-Houston for lack of a better word!
  2. Yup, that's what I thought. But that water feature just sounds even more impressive. It's going to be beautiful.
  3. I'm not sure why the GRB Facebook page didn't include that the new ramps are already starting to be built! 2014-06-07 19.22.00 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 19.21.52 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 19.23.02 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 19.21.48 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 19.22.06 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  4. Not the best pic but it shows that it is now going above ground level. 2014-06-07 17.25.53 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  5. Those excavators I took pictures of and the dirt mounds are gone, but it looks like a few of you have caught that already. 2014-06-07 17.35.29 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  6. Finishing touches 2014-06-07 16.56.33 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 16.57.40 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  7. Guess this is the best update I can provide... Nada! 2014-06-07 16.52.47 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  8. The amount of powerlines in the way of the balconies is STUPID. The poles are almost in touching distance from the edge of the balconies! 2014-06-07 16.28.16 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 16.26.34 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 16.25.00 by marclongoria, on Flickr Streetscape 2014-06-07 16.28.33 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  9. You are now entering GreenStreet! 2014-06-07 16.12.23 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  10. Such a huge difference in half a year. 2014-06-07 16.04.17 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  11. I realize we already have a thread for the River Oaks one but I figured we needed this one just in case.... well, just in case any lawsuits happen. This is just a block down from the Ashby Highrise. http://chateauten.com/ 2014-06-07 17.37.53 by marclongoria, on Flickr Now if you're asking, "Don't we already have a thread for this?" All I could find was the River Oaks one.
  12. I didn't notice it in the picture above mine but they are building a massive staircase in the round mound. You can barely see it in my picture. 2014-06-07 17.01.15 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  13. Nearly 3 weeks later.... eh? 2014-06-07 16.33.47 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  14. It looks like they are removing stone work. I almost believed it was new paint until I noticed the stains on it. 2014-06-07 19.27.32 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  15. Would anyone happen to know what they are going to build here? They own a huge amount of land whoever it is and they demolished several structures. Is it just going to be townhomes or a multi-family building perhaps? It's this entire piece of land Screenshot 2014-06-07 21.18.20 by marclongoria, on Flickr There are markers all over the place plus these small signs that have numbers on them such as "3621" in the picture below: 2014-06-07 16.40.14 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-07 16.41.16 by marclongoria, on Flickr EdIt: Okay, so it's apparently HHC Dorms: http://swamplot.com/hcc-is-planning-a-student-dorm-building-too-at-alabama-and-almeda/2014-05-15/ Here's the latest article from Houston Chron: http://www.chron.com/news/education/article/HCC-central-campus-considers-student-housing-5514472.php Do we have a thread for this already?
  16. Wow good catch. Rode my bike through Midtown today and didn't even see it.
  17. 2014-06-06 17.13.15 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-06 17.13.04 by marclongoria, on Flickr The backside 2014-06-06 17.07.23 by marclongoria, on Flickr Grand Parkway right next to Southwestern Energy headquarters... direct street access. 2014-06-06 17.06.20 by marclongoria, on Flickr Finished parking garage: 2014-06-06 17.05.31 by marclongoria, on Flickr Dirty window... sorry. 2014-06-06 16.56.57 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  18. Shielded by trees 2014-06-06 16.59.28 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-06 16.57.46 by marclongoria, on Flickr
  19. Even with the rendering, I imagine they'll tear down the trees and put in their own. From Marriott Marquis to Skyhouse, they've torn them down even with trees in the renderings.
  20. Based on every construction project we've seen in downtown, it's unfortunate but probably so.
  21. I walked too much around downtown today in the heat. It was bad. I was sweating pretty bad when I got back into work.. I should have just gone around on my bike like I usually do.Edit: but thanks
  22. Down a few feet now 2014-06-05 13.46.21 by marclongoria, on Flickr 2014-06-05 13.46.27 by marclongoria, on Flickr Lot still closed off 2014-06-05 13.46.17 by marclongoria, on Flickr Again, enjoy it in HD. May have a few problems but I'll make a longer video next time.
