  1. I think that Kirksey design is a potential Landry's project on Post Oak Blvd, next to the Landry's corporate headquarters building.
  2. I'm with you, 2112. I like the new courthouse, and the closer it gets to completion, the more I'm liking it.
  3. I don't know about any of the others you listed (and can't verify or dispute since you don't give us any names), but the TD Jakes Church in Dallas seats 8,000, barely bigger than Lakewood's CURRENT facility. As you can see on the Lakewood site, the new Lakewood worship center will seat more than 16,000. I must say, one of the more tiresome and annoying things about this board is when people throw out "facts" without checking them out first.
  4. Do you mean the Boston Garden that was demolished in 1997... is that the Boston Garden you are referring to? ;-)
  5. You are one block off . . . The location of the BoTSWT was to have been the block bounded by Walker, McKinney, Louisiana and Milam. The block you referred to (Rusk, Walker, Louisiana, Milam) is the location of Two Shell Plaza.
  6. A new condo building is popping up in Midtown when I conduct searches on the HAR site. It's called Rushmore Lofts. It's on Chenevert on the north end of Midtown. Does anyone know anything about this project? Is it under construction already? Will there be retail on the ground floor?
  7. The articles I've seen are not entirely clear on the point, but my impression was that the $80 million was the total projected cost for acquisition and development of the park. Do you have other information?
  8. Underground levels of the GRB? That's news to me, and they don't appear on the GRB's floorplans on their website... what do they have on these underground levels?
  9. largeTexas, where did you see renderings of the park? It seems a little surprising that there would be renderings when the article said that design work will being in 2005. But of course we all know how much faith we should put in a newspaper...
  10. Flatline, it looks like you are correct about the location. Since my earlier post, I found the press release on the Mayor's website. It includes a little aerial view with the parkland colored in green, I guess. (It doesn't exactly explain the picture. For example, there is also some land marked in yellow... I don't know if that will also be part of the park or not... anyway, here is the link. Mayor's new downtown park
  11. The park is a very exciting development. Any info on the exact boundaries of it? I hope they'll build a spectacular fountain there. Something around which people can gather just to watch the water and lights. It's amazing what a little water and some colored lights can do. Throw in some choreographed music and it's even better.
