CREguy13 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 1550 is such a great addition to this side of downtown - really great for the skyline vantage from Eado/East End. So excited for the future phases of Discovery West. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas3 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Discovery green is our own miniature version of Central Park. It's totally surrounded by buildings now which makes it look great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's totally surrounded by buildings now which makes it look great. I love Discovery Green, but Central Park is both a truly urban park and an excellent big park. More like DG + Hermann Park combined, with easy walking access for tens (hundreds?) of thousands and easy transit access for millions. But I do love both Discovery Green and Hermann Park. Any place that can feel lively and peaceful at the same time is a win in my book. (Memorial is also an excellent park, I must acknowledge. But there's something discomfitting about it for me. Not quite sure what.) Anyway, neat rooftop arboretum in these photos! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes I've been a few times. It's a great park. I think it's just the fact that the whole northern half of the park is very hostile to bikes, but it's the only one with neighborhood access. I don't love that I have to cross (or ride on a sidewalk along) what is basically a highway in order to get there. Something I love about Mason Park and Hermann Park and Buffalo Bayou park(s) and even Discovery Green is how easy they are to get to without a car. I feel like Memorial is kind of quietly dismissive of the idea of bikes as transportation. But anyway, looking forward to Skanska's wrapping this up so the east end of the Lamar St. bike lane can open up again! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cityliving Posted May 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2023 It looked like work was going to be finished yesterday on the panels being installed on the back side of the building but I guess not, hopefully this will be finished sometime today. The sky has been hazy for a couple of days, we need some rain to clear up the skies. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
