JBTX Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Garage is getting a Black paint job today along the McAlpine side. Not sure who thought black would be a good color for concrete in Texas, but alas. Also, I noticed the thread name changed. Shouldn't it be changed to "Forth at Navigation" as that is the building's name? https://www.liveatforth.com/ Edited January 28, 2021 by JBTX Edited to remove previous reference to blue paint. Blue was the primer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBTX Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I'm curious if the "Vegas style pool" was scrubbed . I had been watching the construction for ages tying to see some semblance of pool construction to no avail and I imagine they would put it in their insta ads if they had one. But the pool rendering still appears on the website. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is to hoping ArchCon/Marquette folks are reading this forum, saw my post, and posted the pool on their IG. P.S.- if the above is true, please fix McAlpine street <3 Edited February 3, 2021 by JBTX 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are orange tags that look like COH health department tags, but they face in.

JBTX Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I spoke to the property management folks as they were out hustling people at the East End Farmer's Market. First move-ins will be May 15, at which point all external construction and the first three floors will be done. They expect the rest to be done June/July. In the meantime, the garage will be cleared of all remaining equipment in the next week or so, and landscaping will begin in earnest. GFR was not scrapped. They are working with a comercial realtor to start looking for tenants. The GFR will be located on Canal, right across from the current structure (where Andes Cafe once lived) and on Navigation at the corner with McAlpine. Desired tennats are the the usual: cafe, brewery, etc. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
