Jonah Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Has anybody heard or seen anything about this development. I went to the website www.kings-harbor.com and it looks to be something pretty decent looking. Along the lines of the Sugar Land and Woodlands town square but with Lake Houston as a back drop. That should make it stand out a bit from the others. They should put some harbor so boats could dock at the entrance. That would make it really appealing. I've always wondered why Clear Lake hasn't done anything like this yet. I would figure being so close to the water would make it a worthwhile proposition. Anyway the developer of this Kingwood project is the same group that recently purchased Town & Country mall and plans to turn that into a mix use project.

texasboy Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 http://www.kings-harbor.com/ I can't even put into words what this would do for the Bayou revitalization near downtown, but I guess the suburbs these days have to have their little downtowns too.

Isn't the Woodlands getting something like this aswell? While we get stuck with little or nothing .....Go Stros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasboy Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 wow. its even further than i thought. it's even far from the fall creek subdivision in humble, which is a long drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houstonian in Iraq Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 It's actually in the Houston City Limits. Yeah I know....was hoping no one would point this out Like it was mentioned above......It is out there. Would like to see it more in one of the 5 business districts (downtown, Uptown, ......)

MidtownCoog Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 15 miles from Fall Creek to downtown.Much quicker than going to Kingwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 On a generally uncongested freeway, in a well forested area. I have often wondered why this section of town hasn't filled in quicker.I suppose Northeast doesn't sound as sexy as Westside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjb434 Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 This will be great for the Northeast side of town. I always thought that Lake Houston could be much more than what it is currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Hizzy! Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Good for Kingwood and good for the COH. Premier properties such as this can only help the overall tax rolls. Actually, aside from all that, it looks like an intriguing development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkosmin Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Has anyone heard about the Skylake Village that will go up in Kingwood? The Town Center is said to be bigger than The Woodlands', and the entire development (condos, retail, restaurants), will be about 2 million square feet! Link: Kingwood.com Discussion with links to more infoI would love to have a bigger commercial center in the Kingwood area - I think it's been underserved for too long.The developer will be Zane Segal. Does anyone know anything about this guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidtownCoog Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 This sure sounds a lot like the other proposal for a "mixed use" village on Lake Houston Parkway north of Atascocita.Can't remember the name of the other one. Something like King's Something or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houstonfella Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I heard that Tilman Fertitta is involved with the financing somehow but did not want his name out there. If this is true, then it will get done. Now this is just a grapevine thing so don't know if it holds water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooner&RiceGrad Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Woah, hot dogs. Skylake Resort will have 200 guest rooms and suites, a spa and fitness facility, tropical pool, an extensive conference center, and ballroom. Skylake Village will be one of the largest suburban town centers in the Houston region at nearly two million square feet. Three and four-story urban-scale buildings with retail and restaurants on the ground floor and condominiums and offices above I didn't know that Kingswood had 65,000 people...?!! Skylake Island, in the midst of over 40 acres (17 hectares) of lakes, will be the center of commercial life, with sidewalk caf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
