A replat named JW Marriott Reserve is under review. 

According to the text on the replat, it's "a partial replat of all of lots 3-5, part of lots 11-12, Block 92 of South Side Buffalo Bayou." The reason for the replat is "to create an unrestricted reserve."

As discussed, JW Marriott Downtown at 806 Main St is expanding. It's renovating the Battelesteins Building next door at 812 Main St. The  plan is to connect the two buildings for the hotel's expansion.

Southwest Value Partners ( SWVP JW Houston LLC ) acquired the Battlesteins Building and JW Marriott Downtown Houston last fall.

The front was boarded up a couple months ago and I haven't noticed any construction workers on site since.  Inside is gutted but with temporary construction lights lit up all the time.  The roof looks a lot cleaner with the chiller mechanisms gone.  Guessing they finished demolition and are waiting to start construction?

I saw tags on it a couple of weeks ago about nobody being available for a city inspection.  

The stop work order seems much more serious.
