Union East: Retail, Office Development At McKinney & Sampson St.


Recommended Posts

So I got to talk with the "Construction Concepts Construction" site supervisor. He said the open roof section will be boxed in with a raised covered roof. His company is doing the interior construction on the Noto club and someone else is building the new building on the corner of McKinney and Sampson.

I asked him why his company left the job at the Mandola's Pronto Cucinino restaurant project on Montrose, he said the owners decided not to go forward with the project.

The mini excavator hit a gas line, the whole area is blocked off with multiple fire trucks blocking all the roads. You could smell it and hear it leaking, the firemen confirmed it to me. I think they were waiting for it to stop and/or for Centerpoint to come shut the line down.

Just a general Houston observation:  those adjacent townhomes really capture the essence of development in Houston.  Next to a bike path, railroad tracks, and soon to be destination-worthy nightclub.  All less than a 5 minute drive from a major downtown.   Who knows what this area will look like in 10 years, but it will continue to change.  I'm an optimist, so I'm excited to see what's possible.

indeed, 10 years ago the area was a small number of townhomes, but a lot of what looked to be empty warehouses, empty fields, and just a whole lot of nothing.

I mean, living in the area for over 15 years now (and visiting my grandmother's house since I was a child) I know exactly why it was overlooked for so long.

May I ask what you mean by 'knowing exactly why it was overlooked'? Honestly just curious. Thanks.

the same reason the Heights was overlooked in the 90s. the same reason Montrose was overlooked during the same time period.

Outside of the Noto nightclub has been painted. None of the other buildings have any construction going on so far.

Great photo as always, @hindesky. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.

Do you have any insight about other possible tenants for Union East? I thought by now, Ancorian would have an updated leasing brochure or at least issued a press release with the latest news about this development.

I read that URL as "No to HTX" and got my hopes up that someone was finally moving to purge the pernicious influence of Austin from our fair city. Then I visited the site and was disappointed to discover it was something else entirely. Oh well, file it next to https://www.penisland.net/ in the list of URLs that site designers failed to fully think through before registering a domain.
