  1. Pic update from above the site. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/702208718532784129
  2. In case anyone forgot about this, here's an update. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/701922419586367492
  3. The first sign of Art Blocks on Main. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/701910424720019457
  4. The LED's are supposed to go in the recessed section of the east & west faces of the building up to the crown, which is also illuminated.
  5. And to think, when MMP was under construction, there was a plan to demo the World Trade Center and replace it with a park to honor the Port Authority. Instead, we got a Westin hotel.
  6. Didn't know where to post this but since it's on Main, the former ATT store at McKinney Place is becoming a VZW store. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/699387721274363905 Also, new sidewalks are partially opened on the 900 block
  7. Artwork going in on 900 block in front of old ATT store (which also has some activity inside) IIRC, these look like the same pieces here before, just repositioned. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/696776546388840448
  8. That was my pic from last weekend. Its cool they decided to use it. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/693572084249722881 Really liked how 500 Crawford framed the plaza. Feels like a pocket park now. Closing down that stretch of Crawford on game days will make for a great block party setup.
  9. It was for painting Patrick Renner's "Trumpet Flower" as part of the Main St "Art Blocks" project. Will be installed next to Main St Sq fountain. Event had a good turnout. art_blocks_mssq_artists.pdf
  10. This evening, saw them as far south as Texas Ave (in front of Rice Hotel & Chipotle.
  11. Update: The oculus is lighten up once again. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/689232226236542976
  12. A like ok at the piers on the (podium or building) site. Im not an engineer but they look to be the same size as the piers at the northern end of the garage (see first pic) Maybe that'll help figure out what's going on (or add further confusion lol) https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/688855091810557952
  13. A look at the materials being used for 900 & 1100 block of Main St Sq. I like it - continuity with the fountain plaza. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/688851461854351360
  14. Some nice park benches ...(you know what's coming) https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/687714402116608000
  15. Luckily for us, he threw it to Panthers FS Dean Marlowe, who returned it back for the score lol
  16. Pic from Luby's - park atop garage looks really nice. There's also a smaller green roof atop small support building. https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/684455715176493056
  17. FWIW - hole is fixed. Pic update from Luby's https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/684455715176493056
  18. Last update I had was that street level businesses (like SuperCuts) being relocated to the tunnels in January
  19. Great pic from Astros' Mike Acosta tonight. View from MMP at sunset, in which you can see 500 Crawford, Market Square Tower, tower crane for Aris, 609 Main and Marriott Marquis. https://twitter.com/astrostalk/status/675100561084170241

  22. On the Travis side (facing Lamar) through the windows, I spy a rotunda with escalators heading down - likely the tunnel connection from street level (like next door at 1000 Main)
  23. Another surprise. It appears there's been a minor design change to add a rooftop balcony. See receding section of glass along the roofline. Wasnt there in the renderings. Edit: Don't see any railings so it may just be some kind of notch/design detail https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/674663213447933952 https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/674665756915867648
  24. Landscape going in at the plaza fronting Travis https://twitter.com/thachadwick/status/674277006293401600
