jmitch94 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I would so love for a high rise residence to be built on the other half of the lot that the Houston Ballet school is on. Basically I dream of Hines having at least one 40+ story residential under construction at all times near market square. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are very correct, as we found out three days after we moved to our house bordering Lake Houston. What a surprise that was. Don't see that in Kansas. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bobruss Posted July 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2021 Nothing else in downtown Houston compares to this elevation. The slight angles of the western edge give the building a delightful and playful alternative to the other boxes downtown. I cant get enough of the verticals in the horizontal grid. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know, that project has never been cancelled, only put on hold till it got a major tenant. Since the garage is there, they've already made heavy investment in the property. Doubt they will sell it. They will hold on to that land till they get a major tenant. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arche_757 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Just buying the land was likely a heavy investment; I had forgotten they built the garage. I suspect if they move forward it would be something scaled closer to what is being done around Discovery Green. Which is certainly better than yet another parking garage! I wouldn’t mind a nice mixed use building, even a 30 floor project. Show it’s possible downtown. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
