Triton Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 My friend is finally putting Party Boy on the market for $10,500,000. Quite a sizable lot in a good developing area. We'll have to see what comes of this. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberbandman Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Sounds expensive. HCAD has this property appraised at 2,721,116 (land - 2,268,072 , improvement - 453,044). I understand the potential development opportunity on 1.53 acres next to I10, but how could institutional investors justify a $10.5m price tag for this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the same person to sell his land off of N Main to White Oak Music Hall for quite a hefty price, so I think he understands the market pretty well. I would not be surprised if he got somewhere around this price for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilcal Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 If METRO decides to build the Studemont Inner-Katy BRT station, it would be super close to this project. It would be like a 250ftish walk? I think there's a low chance that they build it here, but it could definitely happen. I'm sure the developers would like that. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of transit project that looks great from the standpoint of number of dwelling units or square feet of retail within 1000 ft, but the actual pedestrian experience would be terrible. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_cuevas713 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) How are these developers so clueless? Not saying they need to build a parking garage, but putting parking in the back helps so much. I wish I could afford this chunk of land.

j_cuevas713 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) I emailed them asking why parking wasn't placed in the back. This just seems like such a waste of time and money for an area of town that seems to not really know what direction it's going. You have some semi dense apartment complexes next to a suburban Kroger and future Home Depot that will sit next to a future car wash. And the pedestrian infrastructure is lacking along this corridor.

It's also hard on the establishment, since they have to have two entryways, one in front, one in the back. But, I'm a semi-old fart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many people live within walking distance of that location? How many of them are likely to go there? It's the developer's money, and they can do what they want, but I just don't see the point in rear parking. It's not like it's a hardship to walk 60 feet across a front parking lot. Again, that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, that's just me. Some would say driving 60 feet across a property is even easier than walking 60 feet across a parking lot. As I mentioned above, there will likely be a BRT station built in an adjacent parcel. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like it's a hardship to walk 60 feet across a front parking lot. Again, that's just me. It’s a hardship for those with disabilities though. It’s even tougher during Summer months when those extra few steps seem like an eternity. That extra 60 ft is enough to deter business as well. If I’m a business, I’m trying to attract all types of clientele, not just motorists. Otherwise I’m losing potential income as a business owner because I’m only catering to one type of commuter. Parking in the back doesn’t create this massive inconvenience for property owners and aesthetically it’s just nicer. A great example is the shopping center on W Gray and Montrose. And to also ask how many people live in proximity is an even bigger reason we need to build smarter. Just because the current layout doesn’t cater to pedestrians doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be built to handle pedestrians. Especially when Metro is planning a station in this location.
