TowerSpotter Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Wow not even the entire building. When I here campus I think of multiple buildings. That's what I had in mind as well, oh well.

TowerSpotter Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I heard the renderings may just be conceptual designs? The Kingwood Parc renderings were conceptual but it ended up being the final plan, the also added a 16 story tower to the Kingwood Parc. With that being said these could be the final renderings for Levey Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TowerSpotter Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Looks a lot like skanska in uptown. I actually really like the color of the glass on that one. Maybe from that view, yes, but from the other side, no. The other side is of different material and design. Top right corner, click link to see other side. http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/27333-levey-park/page-2#entry429737 Edited September 30, 2013 by TowerSpotter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChannelTwoNews Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 how tall is this expected to be? i dont remember if that info was ever released. from the "skanska" looking rendering it appears to be around 15 floors. In terms of height, 201 ft to the top of the roof & 216 ft to the top of the mechanical penthouse based on the info I saw initially. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) The link above was correct, groundbreaking was held the first week of November even though an official announcement wasn't released. Midway also has another project planned on Memorial that will include a botique office, multi-family and retail.

swtsig Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Don't think there's anything concrete about the memorial project but it's for the now vacant lot where the cursed restaurant and car wash once stood near westcott. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota79 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 This is such an exciting time to be in Houston. Still, I would love to have a signature/trophy building added downtown. In the 80's we got Rebublic Bank, Texas Commerce, Heritage, Transco - etc (of course all the names have changed) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Skyline viewThanks for the images. I'm confused. It looks like this was taken from somewhere near the med center area, and I can make out the large reddish color building in the center as the hotel on SW Freeway. I think the large building in foreground is Hanover apartments in village and right behind is the project on Bissonet just west of Kirby. But the tall building in the background just to the right of the reddish Hotel ( Holiday Inn?) is confusing. It almost looks like the reliant building with the open top in downtown. I cant place it. I also don't recognize the whitish building that looks a little like the herman hospital with the turret on top. I usually can figure these things out but I'm totally confounded with this. Will you help me out and give me some bearings and identify the tower in the background. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I think I just figured it out. That is the med center in the background with herman tower and hospital in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brijonmang Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I think I just figured it out. That is the med center in the background with herman tower and hospital in the background. Correct.  I apologize for how creepy it sounds, but based on all the photo updates in the Astoria and BLVD Place threads by Skyline view, it has been established that he/she lives directly across the street from Astoria which is also where that photo is shot from. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
