jmitch94 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I just realized while I was at the infamous Target with this being 17 stories, Skyhouse at 24 and Arabella at 34 it will be an ascending skyline similar to the cellphone reception signal lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayjay Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Is there going to be another development in the lot between this and ROD or is that just parking? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryDierker Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Is there going to be another development in the lot between this and ROD or is that just parking? There was a luxury hotel rumor at one point. But sooner or later something will be built there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db650 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I'm curious about how many they've sold in the past 3 months. It seems like they've been stuck at 50 percent for quite some time. I imagine the oil bust has dramatically hurt sales. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonIsHome Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 1. Uptown is huge2. The skyhouse garage doesn't seem as depressing here as the ones downtown.3. That target sho takes up a lot of space 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Skyhouse should've put some retail on the garage facing the Target so that it could have a "pedestrian experience" once that Target gets replaced by an Urban Target/Ritz/Aqua Hotel/supertall skyscraper. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 It is a serious issue for all of the Uptown area. There are virtually no convenient parks in all of Uptown, unless you count the very prohibitive Waterwall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
