TowerSpotter Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Thats a large development! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTAWACS Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I was under the impression that the northern boundary of the so-called "energy corridor" was I-10. This is way north of that.... on Clay Road at BW 8. Is this correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
por favor gracias Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) That's correct, it's a good 3 or 4 miles north of I-10. Edited February 21, 2014 by por favor gracias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTAWACS Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 So could it be said that this is not in the "energy corridor", but rather, north of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arche_757 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Too bad on the location. Could have attached to something Memorial/Energy Corridor like at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTAWACS Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 tracts of land this large don't just grow on trees you know.  No kidding.  That's fine. However, if it's not in the energy corridor... then their markerting fluff department shouldnt say it's in the energy corridor... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonIsHome Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I agree. People stretch definitions of boundaries all the time. They will call something near 610 and westheimer a river oaks development, or something on 45 far south of 1960 a Spring development when its actually Greenspoint. Its ask about what sounds more marketable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psilverot Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Would this then be considered to be part of the "West Belt" development? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTAWACS Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 My personal experience is that truth and marketing are two words that rarely find themselves in the same sentence.Isn't this entire statement pretty much an oxymoron? Would this then be considered to be part of the "West Belt" development?Dear goodness I hope not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-Town Man Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Too bad on the location.

fernz Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Just when you thought the energy corridor was becoming a rich urban environment, they go and ruin it all.This is not on the EC, this is the newly designated West Belt sub market; which has always been a collection of isolated suburban office parks.

H-Town Man Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 This is not on the EC, this is the newly designated West Belt sub market; which has always been a collection of isolated suburban office parks. My post was sarcastic. I was responding to arche_757's complain that this wasn't built in the Energy Corridor, adding to the synergy of buildings over there.

H-Town Man Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 tracts of land this large don't just grow on trees you know. Unless it's a giant Tanzanian Land-tract Tree, but even then, the size of this one is unusual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud713 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 tracts of land this large don't just grow on trees you know.speaking of large tracts of land.. whats up with the property on the beltway between Westheimer and Richmond? Meadowglen Ln runs right through it.. the property with a 4 story apartment complex in the middle of the lot but other then that it has been sitting undeveloped (albeit with roads on the property). sorry to get off topic, i didnt want to start a new thread just to ask about it.

cloud713 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) Damn... Just drove by this site. It looks like the woodlands. They are going to tear down a ton of trees.. I wish they had fewer buildings and made them taller so they would be more spaced out and retained the woodedness of the property.

BigFootsSocks Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Taking advantage of the trees and creating a mini-woodlands would make this place look a bit better than the cliche corporate box machine look it has now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
