  1. Has anybody heard/tried that Administaff Balloon, that lifts you up into the air? (or did anybody do it last year?) The prices are too high for the peak hours(which is when most people will go)-$20 for adults,$15 for children During regular hours, both prices go down by 5 dollars... I didn't even hear about this last year. DT should be fun, with the ICE at DG, the Holiday Trolley, and this Ballon for extra holiday amenities. I found this picture( from last year, i presume) on the site. Looks cool! Here's the site, in case anybody is interested. http://www.discoverygreen.com/holiday-balloon/
  2. i dont like how we are grouped up with the Southwest, but whatever... Haven't we've been #2 for a while?
  3. Lets have a road trip to Dallas, and play "punch plate". just kidding. sort of.
  4. I found this photo from Reverberation photo thread, http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=176022 I liked it, with the historical district alongside it, should be a nice contrast when completed.
  5. On a side note, Houston has the 3rd Greenest skyline in America according to Forbes, which from what i read, was based on number of energy star buildings. Houston had 145. http://www.forbes.com/2009/04/06/americas-greenest-skylines-lifestyle-greenest-skylines.html
  6. Yeah, Bank of America Center earns GOLD LEED http://houston.bizjournals.com/houston/stories/2009/11/23/daily9.html?ed=2009-11-24&ana=e_du_pub
  7. NThomas,Well youre not going to get a reward for finding a project FIRST, but if it means that much to you, ill give you a "+1"...Yes, we can understand wanting credit, but its not like its a paying job ___________________________________ Now,imo, i doubt this is going to go through, if it does, it will get downsized. But i like it, a mini BLVD Place, what ever did happen to that project
  8. Thanks, now i feel stupid complaining about something i could change on my own
  9. Lost a lot of its glamour in the new rendering....
  10. Now i dont like to whine, but whatever its annoying. Is anybody else annoyed by the page limits? I think thread pages are allowed to contain 40 posts! This is new, because i remember it being half that amount. Anybody else notice this? Editor, is it possible to go back? But why 40 posts/per page? Thats a lot of info. I guess in some ways its better, i dont have to go to the next page as often, but i actually liked taking that 20 pg break. Anyways, just whats "disturbing" my HAIFy world. Im not annoyed in reality, actually just curious to whats behind the 40 posts/thread idea.
  11. Im Cititzen4rmPtown, and Windows7 was my idea.
  12. Thanks for the great update, great example of a change in seasons...
  13. Thanks for the update, it looks like they are finally building taller floors, or is this a special floor?
  14. Well i went to the webcam, but it was an archive from MAY!!, anybody have any recent images? But from the looks of it, an uninspiring exterior
  15. I think its just me, but imo, TMC is getting some repetitive designs....I mean how many recent building have some brown/blue mix in them? There are many examples of this style, especially the new tall one(forgot the name), and Texas Children's Hospital, and a bunch of other ones, as well. We haven't gotten any real glass buildings in TMC like St. Lukes, etc. Sorry, that i didnt clearly express my opinion, but ive seen all these designs before, just one is a little taller, ones a little shorter, one has more glass, one curves, one has a spire with it, but it all boils down to that glass and stone mix thats become a little too fond. But, thats my only complaint, at least TMC is still building.
  16. Wow, when Fox 26 reported this became a youtube sensation, i didnt believe it but it has almost 235,000 views, which is a lot. But isnt that video only the towing? Almost a quarter of a million views for a towing vs the actual crash video only getting nearly 100,000 views?
  17. well im basing it on that commercial that she said "we wont fund any museums or stadiums we cant afford." I did read it carefully, and read the part where the chron says they asked Parker to clarify her position.
  18. Next thread, Food Town vs Fiesta vs Mi Tienda vs Food Fair vs etc.....
  19. We hope to kill many parking lots in this area in the near future. Hopefully the new convention center hotel pulls through.
  20. At first, i though this was the historic Gulf Building. JP Morgan Chase has way too many naming rights on buildings in DT.
  21. I know voting for a candidate based on 1 issue is wrong, but it looks like Locke is pro-stadium development, and Parker isnt... http://blogs.chron.c..._stadium_1.html FYI, the Dynamo are heading to the Western Conference Finals(for the 3rd time in 4 seasons) against the LA Galaxy. Go Dynamo
