  1. Place will have a bunch of competition with the 552 apartments that will be built across the street. Culturemap:
  2. Considering HSPVA sits on 2 blocks I would say your standard Houston mid rise apartments.
  3. Some updates by me from a bike ride: IMAG0468 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0469 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0470 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0471 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0473 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0474 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0475 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0477 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0478 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0479 by dv1033, on Flickr
  4. This is really awesome news. More parking and more hotel rooms will not only help the convention center but also make us look even more attractive to sporting events such as all star games, super bowls, and soccer.
  5. Now I'm curious about this buck naked dancing at 2AM that will drive kids from their beds. No homo.
  6. Some updates: IMAG0436 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0437 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0438 by dv1033, on Flickr Not sure if this is an add on as it is across the street from the main development: IMAG0439 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0439 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0441 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0442 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0443 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0444 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0445 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0446 by dv1033, on Flickr
  7. So I talked to apartment management this afternoon and the new management happened to be there. Here's what they told me: Will be an Alexan apartment complex, with ~240 units, that is wrapped around a parking garage. They hope to have the residents out by November.
  8. Wow indeed. I love that building. Considering the University light rail is shown in this video maybe it will be built within a decade.. and a half?
  9. Well there is already a development next door called High Street that is under construction and will have retail and apartments as well. I don't think the retail needs to be nixed completely, but at least cut by half and replaced with apartments.
  10. Man it seems they reconstructed the interchanges not to long ago. Hopefully they try and preserve the remaining trees that have grown mostly on the western portion of the interchange.
  11. Rode my bike to Rice Village and took some shots of the progress... Ashton Rice Village updates: photos by me Entrance by dv1033, on Flickr Entrance2 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0389 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0390 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0391 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0392 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0393 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0394 by dv1033, on Flickr There's a sizable courtyard area: IMAG0396 by dv1033, on Flickr IMAG0398 by dv1033, on Flickr InsidetheCourtyard by dv1033, on Flickr DeepCourtyard by dv1033, on Flickr Courtyard by dv1033, on Flickr This is definitely going to be a great addition to this area.
  12. I dare someone to watch the entire "learn how to make a bowl video". It's pretty bad.
  13. Link takes me to the Studewood updates, which I certainly do appreciate.
  14. Also, bolt down some ping pong tables and lets dub thee Verdantly Green Jello Wrestling Green Space
  15. What complexes do have are pools and fitness equipment, I haven't been to or heard of any with volleyball and bball courts in Mditown. My initial thought was a public swimming pool: throw in a lap pool, main pool w/diving boards, a splash pad for the kiddos, and some small slides. However, almost every large complex has a pool. Well if the people want more open green space then I can't argue with that though.
  16. With the younger demographic of Midtown I would like something recreational like some volleyball courts, basketball, and/or some basic fitness related equipment. Lets skip the whole family park idea with Midtown.
