Office Building At 777 Post Oak Blvd.
Houston19514 replied to Highrise Tower's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
To be clear, the reference to future expansion opportunities for River Oaks District was with respect to the 3.4-acre parcel at 4702 Westheimer (adjacent to ROD), which Tilman also purchased. -
The Galleria Mall At 5085 Westheimer Rd.
Houston19514 replied to TreaderCRC's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Yeah, I really wish they would redo the Westheimer frontage to connect with the neighborhood. My guess is this is intentional on their part; short-sighted in my view, but I'm guessing they view themselves the big dog/destination and they don't want to make it convenient for "their" customers to venture out into the neighborhood. -
The whole Commons is really beautiful. Great addition to a pretty amazing park.

Hanover Autry Park: Mixed-Use At Allen Parkway & W. Dallas St.
Houston19514 replied to Vertigo58's topic in Going Up!
Shops and services such as nail salons, sauna studios, and juice bars are part of the mix that creates an urban neighborhood. -
Hanover Autry Park: Mixed-Use At Allen Parkway & W. Dallas St.
Houston19514 replied to Vertigo58's topic in Going Up!
Aren't you the guy who was hating on Regent Square a while back because they were leasing to a nail spa, a sauna and a Clean Juice? -
Hanover Autry Park: Mixed-Use At Allen Parkway & W. Dallas St.
Houston19514 replied to Vertigo58's topic in Going Up!
The demand for upscale steakhouses seems practically unquenchable. Not much farther either east or west and we have a bunch more as well. I'm sure I'm leaving out a bunch. Do you think Turner's Cut is going to be the one to tip the scale? ;-) Vic & Anthony's Pappas Bros Gatsby's Guard and Grace Morton's Toro Shula's The Palm Steak 48 Del Frisco's Double Eagle Capital Grille Ruth's Chris Mastro's -
Presumably, you are predicting Austin and DFW will have the most new construction in the Texas triangle (possible for certain periods of time, but not a given), not that both Austin and DFW will have larger populations than Houston (not gonna happen in the lifetimes of anyone reading this).

Interesting... I'm sure there will be a detailed and accurate report in tomorrow's Chronicle.

Reminder: Avalon has relocated before. Hopefully, they will relocate again. Maybe they could move in to the apartment building under construction next door...

We were supposed to have seen plans and renderings last fall. Has anyone heard anything? Edit: no information, but I did discover there was a presentation on the topic given to the Houston First board at their December meeting. As per usual, apparently zero media coverage.

That’s probably because this thread started (and presumably most poll votes were cast) before the park was redone.

What makes you think they are bringing it back to life?

The stop you referenced remains closed, I.e., inactive. As do all the other stops at the right turn locations that were closed when the transit lanes weee installed. Genuinely curious what caused you (and others in this thread) to say otherwise.

Census Bureau released July 1, 2023 metro area population estimates today: July 1, 2020: 7,168,723 July 1, 2021: 7,245,134 (1.1%) July 1, 2022: 7,370,464 (1.7%) July 1, 2023: 7,510,253 (1.9% in 1 year; 4.8% in 3 years) Someone on this board last year told us Houston's days of adding more people per year than Austin were coming to an end. There is still no evidence that day is in sight.

Shell has also been putting more emphasis on gaining revenue from non-fuel sales. Several years ago, they said they were aiming to get 50% of their revenue from non-fuel by 2025. And they have at least tested a "Shell Select" c-store model with a heavy focus on food.

It makes me a bit sad (for you) that your disdain for the city to which you have chosen to return causes you to take that from what 004n063 wrote. He/She didn't say or imply any such thing.

Inverness Townhomes At 800 Post Oak Blvd.
Houston19514 replied to gallerialiving's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Per HCAD, there are 101 units. AMREIT already owns at least 22 of them. Another entity owns at least 6. AMREIT was purchased by Edens, the company that now also owns Uptown Park. It looks like AMREIT/Edens aims to buy the complex. (Typically, a majority vote can require all owners to sell.) On the other hand, it seems they haven't bought recently, so they (AMREIT) may have changed their mind. Seven units have sold in the past 2 years; AMREIT bought none of them.
