Do you know if they're meant to be office/co-working spaces or small-scale retail popups (akin to Boxpark in London) or something else entirely?

That's incredible news. Boxpark is awesome and if this turns into something remotely similar it'll be a great draw for the neighborhood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am excited to see the small retail spaces interacting with the larger work spaces in a urban warehouse environment. Not to mention its just a short bike ride away from my house.

Montrose1100 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I really hope there is some future restaurant option coming in, but it seems unlikely, given the current climate. Also, long term, closing/cutting off the McKinney RR crossing would limit customers. The neighborhood is doing well given the slump in oil and overall economy. That lot next to Baytown Seafood is being cleared and will surely sprout the newest townhouse farm at any time. A realtor opening up in a renovated warehouse is cool and very appropriate.

While a restaurant would be really nice here. I'm hoping for something tech related to create some job for the area. Even a co-working space could work.

ljchou Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Two pieces of land being replat as "unrestricted reserve" right next to this location. Owned by Tilly Investments. Called "Milby Development" and "Walker Development", respective to their location. The Kaldis area is in black, new development plans are highlighted in yellow: Such a great location but I could see this eventually turning into townhomes. Can't find anything on the web for commercial development. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linearmovement Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 3810 Walker is a cool old house I always hoped would be restored to its former glory; the adjacent lot and the one across the street are both empty and usually overgrown, so the prospect of any kind of construction on those is exciting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drive by this house everyday for work and have always thought the same thing. I'm curious if we could work with a group to move it elsewhere in the neighborhood. I've seen Bullethoof do amazing work, and those at the Plant House have to be familiar with the process. Anyone know them? I'm down to get a little vocal about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This house is much older than the HCAD - 1930's built info. says..(nothing new). I'm guessing it is at least from the early 1900's, if not older. The property directly behind the pictured house (all the way to Polk) is listed as the "Brady Estate" (Map, year 1908). Wondering if this house has a link to J.T. Brady.

Wondering if this house has a link to J.T. Brady. Nothing new indeed. HCAD lists our house as built in 1939, but I was chatting with a local realtor who knew the former owners of the house who had done some research into its history and it seems more likely it was built around 1918.

Ross Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 The built dates in HCAD are wrong for most of the older properties. I think was an artifact of the digital conversion project. For tax purposes, that date is not too relevant, and digging through 100 years of records wouldn't make sense in terms of cost. They may have used dates from the block books, but that's just a guess.

linearmovement Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) Segundo Coffee is up and running - they have a stand set up so they can serve during the build out of their shipping container space. They currently plan to be open MWF around 8am, though they were open this morning as they'll be closed tomorrow in preparation for an event they're doing on Saturday.

ljchou Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 8am is kind of late for a coffee shop. This is on my route to work but I'm usually long gone by 8. Hopefully their full operating hours will be longer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to give Segundo another chance. I ordered a latte and asked how many espresso shots it came with and the two people working told me none 😑 and it wasn't good, super muddy sediment at the bottom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

77011transplant Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 There were also some cool little shops in a couple of the containers that were open. One was a little local makers market.

I was more interested in seeing the space, there's this coffee shop, and 2 small shops. I hope they get more tenants, it's a neat looking space. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
