Wouldn't shock me to see one here as well. there's already one at Wayside/45. I know my wife goes there frequently, but I don't know how many others go there that the area should support 2 new locations? I know this will be huge for UH students though. the Starbucks makes sense too (also from a UH student commuter standpoint). I hadn't seen that the Shipley HQ was coming here (I clearly need to follow this thread more closely), that's exciting, but also fattening, while I would normally say my body is ready, I'm not sure if it is actually ready, but it's awesome news for the area.

Amlaham Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Not a huge fan of Starbucks, but I know opening a Starbucks tend to cause property value in the area to increase. https://people.com/food/starbucks-increases-home-value/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/starbucks-makes-property-values-jump-study-shows/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyt36 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 @editor or other mods, would it be possible to put a geographic reference (or something else for context, maybe Shipley HQ) in this thread title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillip_white Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Major excavation underway just west of the Starbucks site. I think the previously posted plat showed it being a strip of retail surrounded by parking. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_cuevas713 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) What a disaster other than the student housing I guess. We had a great opportunity to build dense with no parking requirements. None of these parcels have any infrastructure for pedestrians, just cars. Edited June 30, 2023 by j_cuevas713 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The developments in Houston have been very abysmal honestly. Most major sites are being developed as either HUGE gas stations or strip centers with a sea of parking facing the street. The only thing Houston has really done is remove parking mandate in midtown and create market based parking in EADO, while the majority of Houston is left exactly the same. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I don't get why the developer of this project couldn't have used better judgement in the layout and use of the land. If the goal is 2030 to remove all parking mins, then that's too long. I say no later than 2025, and I'm being kind. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
