ClutchCity Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Updated development map looks like they did a good job keeping up with all the new projects sprouting up downtown. It's good to see all the planned and under construction blocks and can't wait for more details to surface because they didn't include Hines' multifamily and Hilcorps new tower.http://www.downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2013-07-03/dt_current_projects_130703_FOR_PRINT.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Development map has been updated again, but from what I can tell they only added the Hines residential tower.http://www.downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2013-07-22/dt_current_projects_130719_FOR_UPLOAD.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston19514 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Wow! Downtown is going to be a madhouse by this time next year with all of the construction: Marriott MarquisGRB Parking Garage/RetailNau Center500 Crawford apartments (Finger)HSPVAChevron (1600 Louisiana)609 Main at Texas (Hines)Hyatt PlaceHampton Inn/Homewood SuitesHoliday Inn/SavoyBell/Leeland/Main/Fannin Apartments The above I think are all either certain or highly likely to be under construction by mid-2014.

cloud713 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 woah.. Potential Hines Residential Tower at Market Square? i remember hearing something about that possibility, but i always thought they were referring to the Linbeck International Tower and that the design got switched over to offices from residential or something, ha. so 2 possible new towers at Market Square? very nicee.. any renderings/articles/threads about the residential tower? sorry, im a little excited. this is the first ive seen of anyone officially acknowledging it.http://downtownhouston.org/site_media/uploads/attachments/2013-07-22/dt_current_projects_130719_FOR_UPLOAD.pdf <-- newest map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClutchCity Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I don't understand why Hines can't buy those low rise(1-2 story) buildings at the southern end of the block and give the tenants some ground floor retail space in their new tower. That way they have more room to work with and gives the tenants some state of the art space in nice building(I think Hines should let them own it like a condo deal so they retain ownership of the same amount of space they originally occupied to entice them to say yes).

I'd rather we keep the older buildings in place. They add great character to the area. There is no shortage of space for Hines' new development.

cloud713 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Agreed. I'm not sure which "1-2" story building your talking about, but I'm glad they are building around the 10-15 story buildings on the east side of the block, creating a multi building, more "urban" setting. A few people were upset about Hines not building around the Texas Tower at 609. I guess that one was already empty though and it was just easier for Hines to knock it down than take ownership of it and try renovating/leasing it out.

Urbannizer Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Bisnow reports that two hotels are under development downtown, and six are planned. So there's a few we dunno about. http://www.bisnow.com/commercial-real-estate/houston/bisnow-exclusive-the-woodlands-first-industrial/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arche_757 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Sounds good. I would hope to see a couple of other smaller (200 or so room hotels) in and around the historical district and on Main Street as nice infill. Would make sense if Midway were behind one of those other hotels...but who knows? I would be very happy to see some additional hotels (either new construction or renovation) take some spaces downtown. Infill is glorious!We are slowly filling in the doughnut!

Couldn't list them all from the top of my head, but as TowerSpotter said one may be the rumored Ritz Carlton. The other is the Greenstreet Hotel, proposed by Midway.
