the glass on the rendering and here dont match up to me. looks like something different as well as the pattern is completely different. humph

One thing I wish they would have is a nice pool hall. There's really nothing super close to this area now, the Slick Willies on 59 between Weslayan and Buffalo isn't there and the only other place for pool super close in the 77098 or 77027 zip is Harlow's inside the Edwards Grand Palace movie theater. If I'm wrong please enlighten me, I miss playing pool...

There is a Slick Willies there on Westheimer near Montrose

Awesome picture, I was just watchin the game and they showed a skyline shot from inside the stadium

yeah its a joke, but a good one haha

Did anyone happen to see the Houston Press that came out last thursday talking about turning the dome into, AstroSafari?

Brought to you by....wait for it....wait for it...Tilman Fertitta!

shoulda guessed huh.

just have to wait and see what happens

You know what'll stink is if they perform like some of the west Texas turbines, when you drive by and they're not even spinning, haha

;P

Maybe they'll use the grid to keep them always going...just for show.

Yeah, those west texas wind turbines are so spotty when it comes to working.

just for show would be cool... all the time is better than sometimes like the uptown waterwall exterior...either you're on all the time or not at all!

be just my luck trying to show off DT in the future and someone says, "I don't see any wind turbines moving, you're full of crap!"

I just hope that the turbines, no matter how they rotate will be visible on top of DT. I want to see them move!

Found this cross street sign the other day when walking from the Founder's Cemetery to Allen Parkway

Southwest employees harass an AirTran plane at Hobby Airport. It's funny from a Houston perspective since AirTran has only direct flights to Atlanta from Houston, and Atlanta is not a city served by Southwest.

that commericial is great!

Finally! Looks like something's going to get done.

Amen.

Which Wich? is open in Midtown. may have been for a bit, but i just noticed it.

I actually just had it in Austin last weekend and was wishing there was one near me.

They only have one size I believe, but lots of different options as far as meats, cheeses, and toppings. you can also double the meat and stuff.

I would compare them to Quiznos but more options, and a little higher in quality. the turkey reuben is amazing.

And I live alone and travel a lot, so don't have all the fixins and fresh stuff at home, so its nice to have the option to get a good sandwich out every once and a while.

Yeah Which Wich has been open for a few months, I haven't tried it so I can't give my opinion. I do miss that Cold Stone though. Their Chocolate Devotion is incredible

I've had two HPD report cards put on my car at my apartment so far this year. I failed the first, learned from my mistake and got a pass the second time. I applaud HPD for this, they really are trying to help.

I also heard them doing this at this years rodeo.

Awesome video! I appreciate the share, it was very cool

Not sure if I'm allowed to post renderings from OffCite so I'll just post the link: http://offcite.org/2...wn-as-tolerance

If I see someone else post the renderings from there, I'll know for future reference.

I honestly dont get why the rendering is of such bad quality. I cant tell what it is made of or whats going to be on it. I can't tell if it's going to look awesome or crappy. ERRRRGGH!

I'm always seeing people cross the Studemont bridge in the afternoons and I get nervous for them. They are one slip from getting hit by traffic or one text away from from some doofus hitting the curb.

Is there anyone that lives nearby that can post before (or current) pictures so we can have a comparison after it's complete?

Don't really see why everyone didn't like the design, I thought it was pretty creative, but thank god for the name change.

I agree with you ricco about liking the previous design. I think the more creative and interesting in Houston creates more buzz. Also it gives people a reason to come visit that part of town, that most have never been to and see how great it is.

creating interesting bridge > more ordinary bridge.

my opinion

Tolerance Bridge:

EDIT: Added new renderings released.

Is this still the current design of the bridge?

Awesome and interesting article. thanks for the post

That is one heck of an awesome picture. thanks!

Thanks to ES's small size, it will start to grace the southern skyline in just a couple months.

It seems like they average almost 1 floor a week!

that is fast

The Onion video was freakin funny

why was that old rendering posted?

Our chances of playoffs this season has faded significantly...upsetting. But as Houstonians we are used to this because frankly the Astros do it every season

That is a really nice little letter there. I cant wait to see Mai's reopen, I'll be looking foreward to it

Somebody should post photos of this place. It's hard to imagine an apartment complex with a cell phone tower sticking out of it.

I had some time so I ran over there and took some
