  1. Hi and welcome to the forum. I work for a company that uses some good residential construction contractors. Typically they run about $35 per square foot for everything minus cladding the columns. That's usually a few hundred per column. Paying $63 per square foot is outrageous for a project like that. If you want, I can message you some contacts that would be worth talking to although I don't know if they do work that far south. Either way, good luck!
  2. From 45 this afternoon. There were two news helicopters flying around when I took this. Anyone know what was going on? It was around 420
  3. I don't know if anything specifically but you may want to check with some of the architecture firms in town. Sometimes they will hold design competitions for projects they want to get free ideas on...I know they are mostly geared to college students but it might be worth checking into.
  4. Construction equipment is on site as of today
  5. Someone forgot to turn on their sarcasm meter...That said, MMP is still a destination and having three major league stadiums all within walking distance of each other is still a good thing if you ask me. It makes sense for development to happen between these venues. The parks downtown only reinforce that point. It has taken longer than many ever thought, but with the downtown initiative people are going to be moving into these areas.
  6. Is this the Westchase project you alluded to as losing a major tenant in that west Houston core thread?
  7. Not sure you can consider it U/C yet since they haven't started any kind of foundation work but it is imminent. PS - I enjoy all of your photo threads over on SSP. I like seeing all the changes going on in Austin.
  8. That is a really classy rendering. Those buildings will look good all together - they all do a nice job complementing each other.
  9. Sorry for the bad quality of the picture but this is from today. Up to the 8th floor.
  10. Awesome work! Thank you for taking the time get these photos and posting them. There are so many cool projects going on around town that don't often get put on here. This one thread had tons those kind of projects. Thanks again.
  11. Hi, Check your inbox, I sent you a message there. Thanks
  12. Probably areas for shot put and discus, etc.
  13. You are mostly correct. That is on top of the garage podium for BG Place.
  14. He was actually trolling like he always does, but other than that I agree.
  15. Thank you for the photos Rechlin! You may be a new poster but your construction progress photos are quite an asset for the rest of the forum who can't be there to see things in person.
  16. I have the updated imagery when I look at google maps from my desktop this afternoon.
  17. If you can find a way to create a mountain range or huge body of water to surround Houston then we will be able to combat sprawl. Until then, it's going to keep happening.
  18. Clutch photo!! That is a great vantage point! It's going to look that much better when 609 Main and the Market square buildings go up.
  19. I just checked it out myself...very recent for downtown. As in, the Macy's building is just dirt.
