Has anyone from a higher vantage point seen a tree yet? Not sure it's truly topped out. Appears to not be the case.

Tumbleweed_Tx Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 It's either at or close to max height. When the last structural piece goes up, it is topped out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston19514 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 That looks like the crown to cover the utilities, I don't think there will be any more floors.Agreed. But the crown is part of the structure, so it's not topped out until the crown is topped out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Are we counting the garage as part of the floor count for the office building adjacent to the the GRB across the street from The Marriot? If so, they're pouring the roof for floor 10... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nole23 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Man Houston is going to make an awesome impression on the NFL during the Super Bowl.  Yea it's going to be awesome. I remember Houston getting a lot of high marks for the Super Bowl in 2004 when none of this stuff was around, just some bars on main street and the light rail just opened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
