Vertigo58 Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 Thanks for the pictures! My grandfather designed this building so I'm glad to see it's still standing. I hope to go by and see it when I get to Houston later this month. Thanks again! Best to hurry, could be gone any day. I wonder if they removed the huge glass cabinets loaded with trophys as soon as you enter in the vestibule area? maybe had to dismantle or were built in. I have to see my pics from 2 years ago. We always had the silent auction tables directly in front of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLan34 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) http://houston.cultu...-new-complexes/ "Archstone has broken ground on a new complex that will contain 474 units on the northeast corner of North Braeswood and Brompton Road. It's on the site of the former Houston Scottish Rite Temple, which was demolished in 2008 in order to make room for a developer."

rsb320 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Anybody been by here lately? Last time I was, there was a pretty substantial project going on. I appeared that this project will have below grade parking, but I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texas911 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Doubts its below grade right next to the bayou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb320 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Doubts its below grade right next to the bayou.That was my first thought too. I'll be heading over that way this weekend and will check it out further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
