HoustonMidtown Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I think this development has been mentioned in the Little Bigs thread....these are going in what is currently a parking lot Prices seem pretty steep for the size of the units... http://search.har.com/engine/1004-California-106-Houston-TX-77006_HAR10937827.htm http://search.har.com/engine/1004-California-102-Houston-TX-77006_HAR79051534.htm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminare Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 yep so much history in that parking lot! We truly lost something wonderful... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naviguessor Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 My bad. I thought thesr were going where Little Bigs was. Bigs, and the Chinese place previous to Bigs, do have good Montrose History. But, South Beach's old parking lot may just as well be filled up with high end Townhomes. It seems like the only alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollusk Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 yep so much history in that parking lot! We truly lost something wonderful... I have no doubt that there was plenty of personal history made in South Beach's parking lot Back In The Day... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollusk Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) I am dating myself, but Heaven > South Beach! I am dating myself, but I was trying to remember WTF it was called before South Beach... A friend once lived in the house on Grant with the balcony overlooking Pacific - now THAT was a show. Edit: To be clear, we were not the show; instead, it was laid out before us. On the balcony, we were pretty much invisible to those below.

houstontexasjack Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 It looks as though they've done away with the first floor bedroom common to a lot of three-story town homes. I suppose the reduced square footage lets the developer aim for a lower price point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samagon Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I read their little blurb on the main page, and it got me wondering. A lot of people I've noticed have started calling Montrose 'The Montrose' while it seems silly to me, I've embraced it, because it isn't Montrose any longer, it's something else. Anyway, the way that they write about it, I silently added a The in front of Montrose... California Square is a gated community of 24 homes in the The Montrose neighborhood of Houston, TX. The community offers a stylish and progressive design at a very reasonable overall price. Offering a compelling opportunity in comparison to renting, California Square features ease of living, a progressive design, urban excitement and a The Montrose address. heh, sorry, my mind is broken.

jgriff Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Will people really pay $330 a sq. ft. to live here? My house near the River Oaks Shopping center was almost $100 a sq. ft. cheaper. It's a free-standing house with it's own driveway and brand new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
