    Lol typical Houston "urbanism", that looks SO suburban.If i didnt see the buildings in the background that looks like it could be in Kingwood or something.

    Maybe they have already been leased by a cock fighting organization, hence the dirt floors

    Is there enough retail space in the Skyhouses for a small grocer/superette? I think they are still empty.

    Downtown is going to literally look like Sim City around New Years. My god.

    Blocks 318, 317, 335, and 387 have all gotta be the next to go. They are going to be crucial to forming a solid residential district in southern downtown. The groundwork is already in place with Houston House, Alliance, and the Skyhouse twins. All the block numbers I listed are the last remaining entire surface parking lot blocks left fronting Main st after Skyhouse Main is built. What do you guys envision as being the best use for these blocks directly on the rail line in the residential district? More solid apartment/condo highrises? Greenspace? Some kind of shopping, grocery, entertainment?

    I knew it

    Perspective. They look identical. What I dont get is, Skyhouse houston is 25 floors, and skyhouse main is 24 floors.....yet they both have the same number of units and retail. Anybody?

    Excellent points, gotta go with you on this one. I mean seriously, some chilled water destroyed the ENTIRE UNDERGROUND INFRASTRUCTURE of a train line?? What are they gonna do when it rains or floods, shut down the trains and replace the infrastructure every time? I smell bull.

    No one, I "snuck" up there!I got a workout too because the elevator will only take you to floor 17 unless you have a card key. Does anyone know what companies occupy the upper "access only" floors? Also, I know these buildings are haunted. I have to say I felt an EXTREMELY eerie presence walking in the staircases and hallways. There was no one else there but I definitely "felt" someone or something watching me. It was pretty scary.

    Thats one theory!Maybe they played music? Or told the time? Or played bells like a clock tower? Id really like to know.

    Had a day off of work last week and decided to get a closer look at the grand tempietto of the Esperson buildings. Here is what I saw: Old mail chute Gulf building These old loudspeakers surrounded the entire balcony perimeter. Anyone know what they were for? Nice views.. Beautiful urns... The grand tempietto... Hope you enjoyed!

    I just don't get it at this point. Its not like the current boom is ever going to get any "boomier", I mean, what is Ric Campo waiting for, Jesus to come back? Make hay while the sun still shines, right?

    Editor, can we get a "Slick Vik vs IronTiger" sub-forum, please. Jesus
