ClutchCity Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Link?It's behind a paywall unfortunately, but there is a short paragraph describing the project. "Mixed-use developments, in particular, have picked up in popularity among developers. Mid-Main, which is being developed by Houston-based RHS Interests Inc. and will break ground in the spring, will include 363 units and 29,413 square feet of retail space while also incorporating the existing 10,000 square feet of retail, which is presently fully leased."http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/print-edition/2014/01/03/commercial-industry-may-be-cooling.html?page=all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Yeah I thought so too. I guess it was kind of obvious where the office tower and boutique hotel would go, but it's nice to have proof that they do in fact own the lots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Huge Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 When are the office tower and the hotel getting built?

Triton Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Mid Main is under construction? Can anyone confirm this? In Houston, a major new mixed-use development called Mid-Main is under construction near the Ensemble/HCC MetroRail stop in Midtown, and should open in mid- to late 2015. And although still under construction, the East End Line has already catalyzed an ambitious urban renewal project spearheaded by the Greater East End District, as well as developments along the route. These efforts are transforming the East End into one of the most walkable neighborhoods in the city, with a mix of restaurants, shops, apartment complexes, and a network of hike and bike trails currently under construction. “I’m really excited about the East End,” said David Crossley, the president of the think tank Houston Tomorrow. “They’ve done great work preparing for the light rail line, and they’ve got a very progressive master plan.” Like the East End, Midtown is developing into a transit hub, with an energetic street life and plenty of dining and entertainment options. The area is also becoming a cultural destination, with the Metropolitan Dance Company recently opening its new studios on Caroline St. and the Midtown Arts & Theater Center Houston (MATCH) scheduled to break ground this year. http://www.houstoniamag.com/news-and-profiles/city-and-region/articles/auto-immunity-march-2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triton Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 This should be breaking ground soon, shouldn't it? In other news, MATCH is at 80% funding now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
