But they clearly have the location address wrong. I've noticed before that these TDLR permits very often have errors or misstatements in them... Hospitality, Inc. is the record owner of the Landry's warehouse at the Loop and I-10 (7310 Old Katy Rd) that was recently discussed in the other thread. Interesting that Tilman is apparently going to renovate his existing warehouse building in to a practice facility. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it possible be that empty lot on the corner of 610 and Post Oak, right next to the hotel? There aren't many empty lots in the galleria area. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOUCAJUN Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) New practice facility slipped out today by Tillman. Apparently it's going to be located in the Galleria area and will be stool to lite free agents. I'm wondering if this will be near the Post Oak?

monarch Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 ^^^ i saw footage of the NEW HEAD COACH IME UDOKA'S press conference, where the stunning news of the $70mm GALLERIA AREA ROCKETS PRACTICE FACILITY was revealed. actually, it was a (slip-of-the-tongue) via tillman fertitta on the reveal. he also stated that at some point when the organization is ready, "more information regarding the new facility shall be forthcoming". my initial thoughts when he stated "GALLERIA AREA" was that this facility shall probably be located ON or NEAR his POST OAK PROPERTY. should this indeed be the case, then said facility shall undoubtedly become a very exciting and state-of-the-art venue for rockets practices. i cannot wait to see the reveal of the renderings/concepts. great day for rockets... 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asubrt Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Could this finally be the development on the "Post Oak Corner" site at the SW corner of Post Oak and 610? The only other empty lots in the immediate vicinity are on Garrettson behind The Astoria and on Hollyhurst/Hallmark behind Willie G's. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatguysly Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 There was once a building shown where the valet lot is behind WIllie G's on something Tillman put out. It is probably in The Post Oak thread. I hope it is that corner lot though. Parking is an issue with The Post Oak and he probably cant afford to lose his valet lot. Maybe if he built the practice facility on top of a garage in that location. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 It seems like a pretty pricey piece of real estate for a practice facility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it to mean “we’re building” in the broader sense, as in, “we’ve kicked off the development process.” Also, the permit shown by Hindesky is not a building permit. So far as we know, there are not yet any building permits. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooklyn173 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Tilman Fertitta suggested, soon after buying the Rockets and Toyota Center, that a renovation of the arena was a possibility. Could this be the start of that (long) process of improving the Toyota Center to current marketing standards? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatguysly Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 I looked on HCAD to see who owns what in the area between 610, Post Oak, Hollyhurst, and Hallmark. There are four parcels. 1) Hospitality Headquarters (1510 West Loop South) - This land includes his original midrise, The Post Oak and the surface lot. 2) Post Oak Motors LLC (1510 West Loop South) - The car dealership. 3) Post Oak Real Estate Holding Inc - 777 Post Oak Blvd) - The office/consulate building on the corner of Post Oak and Hollyhurst. 4) 755 Post Oak Inc (address and company name) - corner lot Looks like he hasn't bought that corner lot yet and this will have to fit into his current footprint. The only spot left is his surface lot behind Wille G's. This is his current valet and tour bus parking. I wonder if the cost went up to and a mix use garage and parking facility? I know he is struggling with parking needs and has tried to lease spots from the Marriot garage at a minimum. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
