    The location is seriously key. You have close proximity to Westchase and the Energy Corridor and are less than 15 miles away from DT and Uptown area.

    Seriously.... lol This thing is totally out of place. Hopefully at the very least this took up a parking lot so I can sleep well tonight.

    I know huh? After looking at a map this is the parking lot a block north of Flying Saucer. Bad ass.

    Culture Map:Skyscrapers buck the recession: Hines plans another new office tower for downtown Houston "The Hines real estate organization, which has built 23 skyscrapers in downtown Houston, is planning another one. The project, if it comes together as planned, would result in a major office building on Main Street, catty-cornered from the historic Rice Hotel building. Hines would not proceed unless a major office tenant has been signed, but the developer has been in serious discussions with significant corporations looking for downtown space. Some people in the real estate community say this could be the real deal — a big tenant ready to make a commitment and kick off another Hines downtown project — and soon." Hopefully there is much truth behind this story. Anyone heard these sort of rumblings?

    Thanks for the story and pics. I set out to cross this bridge as well and did so today. I made the trip from roughly the Richmond @ Montrose intersection and went all the way to the bridge and went west down the trail to Westcott and back. I haven't ventured this far north and west on my bike yet and it was my first time riding along Buffalo Bayou. I must say I was floored by the potential, of course the trails were crap and there was a lot of overgrowth but the future looks bright with that very large donation. As for the bridge, seems very functional and utilitarian, and there's nothing wrong with that in this case. I wish the bridge continued on over Allen Parkway as it was a bit intimidating and inconvenient to cross Allen Parkway on bike coming from south Montrose, at least for the first time. I took both sections of the bridge and did quite a bit of riding. The weather was perfect and there were tons of people out on their bikes throughout my trips and tons of people on the trail itself. Hopefully next time I can stop and take some pics.

    Did you not read that informative tree brochure that was posted earlier? Trees are the future dude.

    As long as its durable, I don't think the appearance of this material is worth the concern. Let's keep building more of these bridges and such with that generous donation to the City.

    Sounds fruity in the booty.

    LOL. I agree with you mostly. Half of the people who disagreed seemed to just want to argue for the sake of arguing. Nah its back.

    Like your site. Thanks for the pics.

    I seez. Hopefully, something new will come along.

    It is ugly but that hasn't changed.

    Looking good Houston!
  20. kdog08
    Anyone know when we can use it?
  21. kdog08
    It's on three separate blocks.

    Thanks for the good news! I passed that place a night ago and made a mental note to go there. Slightly off topic, but the new apartments off mcgowen do look great and are excellent infill. They span 3 blocks, one full block is taken up and the two adjoining blocks are partially taken up. This part of midtown should "urbanize" nicely over the next several years.

    I would wager that West Houston (including Katy) grew faster than those areas mentioned. Honestly, has any part of Houston besides west, sw, and inner Houston grown over the past decade? No doubt that our outer suburbs has, but I doubt it would be enough to draw the center of Houston away from the memorial area.
