There was some event going on there, looks like a fantastic place to hang out. I expect this place to get tons of traffic from cyclists. This is why we need more developments that aren’t solely car focused. I wonder how many businesses in this city lose possible income because they don’t provide other modes of accessibility like walking and biking. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3mh Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I would poke fun at "Omaha based sushi restaurant" had I never been to Omaha. But there is a very nice little restaurant scene in Omaha. Anyway, MKT is adding a sushi restaurant. Now, no one can complain about not having sushi in the Heights. https://www.theleadernews.com/food_drink/food-briefs-new-sushi-spot-coming-to-heights-this-summer/article_6d7dd9d8-72ee-11eb-9181-afc380bd173a.html 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also looks like there's still more phases to this development I'm extremely excited to see what they do with those older buildings in phase 2, they could really be something incredible. I also think it would be awesome if eventually they build some small pavilion or market style buildings in the current parking lots and rely just on garage parking and the trail connection. This spot is already great but densifying to make it more intimate would take it completely over the top. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highrise Tower Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Houston fashion designer Chloe Dao to open mini studio in M-K-T mixed-use project https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2021/02/25/chloe-dao-m-k-t.html Quote Fashion designer and entrepreneur Chloe Dao, a Houston native and the winner of "Project Runway" season 2, is expanding to the Heights. Dao will open a mini design studio in the M-K-T mixed-use redevelopment, according to a press release and the M-K-T website. The studio will feature a curated selection of cocktail and evening wear and will showcase the design process from idea to mood board to sketches to the final product. Dao’s Safely Sip masks — a style of face mask for drinking on the go — will also be available for purchase. “Super excited to be a part of the M-K-T family surrounded by other female entrepreneurs like myself, which was the reason I was truly drawn to this location,” Dao said. “We all bring a different energy that creates great synergy among us that creates a great shopping experience for all.” This is great news! She makes great masks 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post texan Posted April 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2021 I walk through this on my walk almost every day, so here's a quick progress update: Homestead: Buildout essentially done, they have a hiring sign out front. RayBan: Appeared on the signs within the past few weeks, they'll occupy the space across from Homestead. They have permit papers on the doors. La La Land Kind Cafe: Structural buildout looks to be almost done. Sheetrock is going up. Sweetgreen: Uhaul truck was outside with people moving things in. Highline Park: Structural buildout going on. Rakkan Ramen: Essentially done, should open soon, menu was outside today but I didn't think to get a picture. Da Gama: Looks to be close to opening, already has ration furniture. I also found the attached file on the leasing company's website that appears to show there are quite a few more retailers lined up: Urban Outfitters, Madewell, Fabletics, Free People, and Sephora are some of the bigger names. Also quite a few fitness studios. 2078315945_BrandBook-MKT03.2021_COMPRESSED-compressed.pdf 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Homestead opens in June at M-K-T, 600 N Shepherd Dr. As reported, the restaurant is billed as a kitchen & bar. The focus is a blend of Southern, Texan, and Tex-Mex. I think this is the third restaurant tenant to open at M-K-T. Rakkan Ramen and Da Gama opened this month, as previously announced. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people that don't drink coffee but they do drink Cokes, MT Dew or energy drinks which have as much or more caffeine. I worked with guys who drank Bang all day long and couldn't make the day without them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
