hindesky Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I wonder if Crane Guys talk to each other when they are up there. Some of them are pretty close together. Crane Operator Happy Hour.If they are on the same site, yes they do. The jibs may overlap so the trolleys may be in the way of each other depending on what they are doing. They have to let each other know what is going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merpityderpity Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Finally started on metal work, the stairwell is up a couple of stories now   Edited May 1, 2015 by merpityderpity 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Finally started on metal work, the stairwell is up a couple of stories nowI really like how the staircase gives you an idea of how big this project is. My only complaint is that the crane peering over the trees on I-10 heading west would be a wonderful spot to have a tall gleeming skyscraper.

hindesky Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Am I the only one that thinks this is a questionable location?In what way? They will have killer views of downtown and zero chance that something comes along to block those views. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I drive by it a few times a week and no, it's a great location. There's always a lot of people along the trails and next to the baseball fields. It's a short walk to Fitzgeralds and a bunch of bars. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a short walk to Fitzgeralds and a bunch of bars.By the time this opens, Fitzgerald's will probably be close to closing shop.  I think it's a great location too. I'm actually surprised we didn't hear more vocal opposition from the Woodland Heights community but besides that, close to downtown, right next to all the grocery stores, and next to the long bike trails along the bayou. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curbur Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I mean, that still somewhat deters me from wanting to live there because I would like to have a parking garage not in such an obvious flood plain if I could help it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanith27 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I'm not sure that first level will be parking. Â Theres a large stone retaining type wall just outside this picture which is why the water stopped where it did and didn't go in any further. Â I think this may be patio or promenade type walking environment over to the adjacent kids playground and dog park under the bridge.

mollusk Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Unless a right turn lane gets added, this is going to make the westbound Taylor Street exit from the Katy SUCH a joy, particularly in the evenings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aggie92 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Makes you wonder if the submerged car drove into the water or was parked there. At some point people will realize that this area floods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
