So take with a grain of salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanjorade Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Just drove by and they do have at least one. 32 minutes ago, Dustin said: I love the smell of dust and rubble in the morning. Does anyone know if they have water trucks out there to keep the dust down? I didn't see any in the pictures provided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillip_white Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I found this in the MMD Annual Report: Quote The Authority continues holds the property located at 3300 Main Street within the Zone to assist in mitigating blight and incentivizing redevelopment. During fiscal year 2014 the Authority received a contract to purchase this property by a private developer. In Fiscal Year 2016, the Fifth Amendment to the contract extended the closing of 3300 Main Street to June 1, 2016, and then the Sixth Amendment extended the closing to December 30, 2016 and provides for the demolition of the improvements on the property to be completed by October 30, 2016. source: http://houstonmidtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/FS-2016-Midtown-Redevelopment-Authority-final-report.pdf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post phillip_white Posted November 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Here's another drone video for your viewing pleasure. If you wait until the end of the video you'll get to see views of the Med Center, Superblock, and Downtown. Sorry for the shakiness. I was having a lot of interference, which I'm guessing was coming from the piles of steel. Let me know if there are any other sites that you would like to see from above.

Great stuff, thank you for doing this. I actually had someone approach me with a paid gig while I was setting up for this flight and another one at Hardy Yards this past weekend (see YouTube), so the pleasure is all mine! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
