Ziegler has a map of its version of the master plan for the Regent Square project that features the tower we know as "The Sovereign" with a label of "Phase I" next to it. A label of "Phase II" is next to a structure just to the south of it. The image of such is to the right of the map below: Truly, this will take a century to complete.

Dakota79 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Off the topic, but I don't see a thread anywhere. How tall of a building do you think Hines will do on the corner of D'Amico and Waugh across form Whole Foods. We all know Hines doesn't mess around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Southmore is around 27. Aris Market Square is 32. I think La Colombe d’Or will be 33 or so. That seems to be their sweet spot in Houston. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregpet Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I drive by the Regent Square sales office on Dunlavy coming home from work and there continues to be cars in the parking lot (usually 2-3). There must be some reason these people are showing up for work but there has literally been no perceivable progress at the Regent Square site. There HAS been quite a bit of maintenance going on at the Allen House apartments (owned by developer and supposed to be torn down as part of Regent Square plan). So it looks to me like that they are retrenching on the Allen House (continue the covered land play). Maybe Allen House will be the last part to be redeveloped (assuming any additional development ever happens). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. Regent Square developers have enough on their plate. Maybe if Regent Square was fully built already, I could see them buying this land. In the meantime, they need to work on the vacant land they have sitting there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CREguy13 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 From what I am hearing, Hanover is planning a project that is close to the scale of Regent Square. We shall see, but certainly adds pressure to GID. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Hanover bought one plot large enough for one of their towers. Regent Square is a much larger tract of land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htownproud Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 But presumably if Hanover wanted to expand, it could buy some or all of the Regent Square land. I think it's safe to assume that Regent Square as originally envisioned is never going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It sure looks that way. If Hanover could buy out Regent Squares holding's or even some of them they could develop a major mixed use development. I have a friend who was very involved with this project at one time and he became very frustrated with the developers on and off again approach. If nothing else they definitely put together an interesting tract of land in a high profile location situated off Buffalo Bayou between River Oaks and Downtown. It will be interesting to see what becomes of this parcel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifton Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Hines bought a piece off Waugh too across from Wholefoods, very near this area. All the movers and shakers moving in. Maybe to put the pressure on GID or steal their thunder. Maybe both. I would say these acquisitions and proposed projects for these parcels will bring the pressure on GID.

I would say these acquisitions and proposed projects for these parcels will bring the pressure on GID. It will be interesting to see over time how this area evolves as compared with Midtown. Midtown offers the advantage of a street grid enabling walkability and urbanity, as well as mass transit and proximity to downtown and cultural institutions. This area offers the bayou park, proximity to high end retail, and perceived lack of crime/insulation from "people who don't look like you." One can hope that Regents Square will come along and tie the area together into something with a focus, a sense of place, instead of a forbidding chaos of unwalkable blocks.

bobruss Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Your right. Allen Parkway could become something akin to Lake Shore Drive in Chicago with a line of skyscrapers fronting Buffalo Bayou all the way to Shepherd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naviguessor Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 ...allows even people with less than a six figure income to live close to and enjoy Buffalo Bayou Park, thank goodness. Not to mention, near employment centers. This city needs more of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifton Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 If I were to guess, I think that is exactly where the City Planners and Regent Square developers want for this area. Highly dense with high end condos, apartments, townhomes and luxury stores between River Oaks and Downtown along the bayou. Everywhere else is just apartments along the bayou. With Hines and Hanover moving in too literally next door, things could get real interesting for this area. Guess time will tell.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgriff Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 We have our share of what some people would consider “people who don’t look like me” around here. Almost all of them are harmless. There’s very little crime. There is a guy who lives in the College Park Cemetary but he’s quiet and keeps to himself. I say hi but he doesn’t say much. There’s also the person I’ve named the “College Park Cemetery Weirdo”. Not sure what he’s up to but he kneels on the shell road for hours at a time facing North towards the bayou. The kids who walk through the neighborhood to go to MHMR are very nice. One was digging through my garbage once and was terrified when he saw me. He apologized profusely. The cemetary really is the best thing about the area. It’s facinating to walk through and like having a private park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Sorry guys, this thread keeps getting bumped yet there hasn’t been any actual update in years, therefore I’m locking this one in the meantime. Once we get an update it’ll be reopened. Anything regarding Hanover’s project please post here: https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/44432-3540-w-dallas-st-planned-mixed-use-by-hanover/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I'm reopening this thread. It appears the Regent Square project is dead. After having that discussion in the Hanover thread, decided to do some searching. The Regent Square site no longer even shows the renderings or project layout and the sales/marketing information is gone. The site simply redirects to GID's development page. https://www.gid.com/our-capabilities/development 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
