The big building with the orange tower was a juvenile detention facility. I’m not sure what the building in front was for. 

Today. This is/was a United Way and Harris County building? So is the mysterious The Center land.  The Center is a MHMRA/United Way project

Photos from today. Same Notice of Variance Request sign as Hanover W Dallas

The bldgs were old and poorly kept.

Is that facade metal?

There are several different parcels of land and organizations in the area North of West Dallas and West of Tirrel. 3540 West Dallas fronts West Dallas and has been sold to Hanover. The plot at the corner of West Dallas and Shepherd has been sold for a new apartment development also. The plot referenced in the first post on this thread faces Allen Parkway, it is behind the Hanover property. I’ve heard that it was damaged in Harvey and has been for sale but haven’t heard that it has sold. 

 

I havent looked at the variance sign closely but I assumed it was in reference to the Hanover plot. 

 

Thanks!

I’ll post a photo of the variance sign so you can know more. After looking myself, it seems like it's for the Hanover Buffalo Bayou project.

A variance request sign went up this morning on the site.

I’m confused. The same sign is down the street at W Dallas & Shepherd. Same application numbers.

What does Buffalo Bayou have to do with this Hanover? Maybe it’ll be callled Hanover Buffalo Bayou?

The site address for this is 3540 and The Center’s address is 3550. Guess they’re as one now. This project will be amazing!

Made a new friend today! 

They’re currently flushing out a hole, or something similar so they can start the soldier piles. They’re going 60 feet underground?  Dirt retention for the next few weeks. 

The rebar at the site is for the dirt rention.

This is now a Buffalo Bayou Park commercial development? 

I’m here on the grounds after seeing a Notice of Variance Request on W Dallas.

The Center sits on a lot of land.
