Doesn't one of the new buildings at TMC have a roof garden? I'm thinking of that one building that was LEED certified.

Greenspoint Mall Developments
Houston19514 replied to Houston Retail's topic in Other Houston Neighborhoods
But none of that "Cityview deal, the Management District, the gutting and rehabbing of almost the entire apartment district complete with elaborate marketing campaigns, landscaping parks and other upgrades" did anything to upgrade, rehab or reposition Greenspoint Mall. In fact, you can say they have not tried to reposition the mall, because in fact nothing has been attempted at the mall prior to this.- 95 replies

GreenStreet: Mixed-Use Development At 1201 Fannin St.
Houston19514 replied to MontroseNeighborhoodCafe's topic in Downtown
I meant another hotel beyond the one under construction in Dallas (sorry if I was unclear). And when I say "I learned" that there will be no additional Ritz-Carlton's in Texas EVER, I was being sarcastic. That is what we were told in another thread by a certain board member who is a resident of a certain Texas metro area. Personally, I have no doubt that there will once again be a Ritz-Carlton in Houston, probably within 5 years or less. -

I know I've been seeing only half-empty glasses ever since I learned that Ritz-Carlton will never ever open another hotel in the entire state of Texas. ;-) -

Nope. I don't know. ;-) But I have never heard that before and would very much doubt it . -
Heritage Plaza: Office Skyscraper At 1111 Bagby St.
Houston19514 replied to ChannelTwoNews's topic in Downtown
The building was not built by and is not, and has never been, owned by Texaco. Texaco was just a tenant. -

I just saw this on the Houstondowntown.com website: "Wulfe has wooed fashionable tenants such as American Apparel, local retailer Uncle Funky -
Holiday/Days/Heaven On Earth Inn At 801 St. Joseph Pkwy.
Houston19514 replied to MontroseNeighborhoodCafe's topic in Downtown
But if that were the case, one would expect a mortgage (or deed of trust) to be recorded. I don't find anything. -

Another High-Rise Condominium Development
Houston19514 replied to J.A.S.O.N.'s topic in Galveston and the Gulf Islands
Wow, you're really going out on a limb with that prediction. . . Isn't Mosaic already under construction? -
Bayou Place: Entertainment Complex At 500 Texas St.
Houston19514 replied to houstonsemipro's topic in Downtown
. . . and . . . shouldn't you be out on a ledge somewhere? -
I saw an ad in the the Chronicle last week for a HUGE development on the very western tip of Galveston Island, named Pointe West. Have we known about this before?

Holiday/Days/Heaven On Earth Inn At 801 St. Joseph Pkwy.
Houston19514 replied to MontroseNeighborhoodCafe's topic in Downtown
But the deal DID go through. According to HCAD and Harris County Clerk's records, Landco bought the property from the Maharishi in 2004 and Landco still owns the property. One customarily conducts due diligence before recording the deed ;-) I suppose it could be possible that the deal came unwound afterwards, but no reversion to the Maharishi appears in the county records yet... Is nobody else here the least bit curious about the Maharishi advertising to sell property he does not appear to own? -
Holiday/Days/Heaven On Earth Inn At 801 St. Joseph Pkwy.
Houston19514 replied to MontroseNeighborhoodCafe's topic in Downtown
Hmmm... That seems odd. Why can't I find the listing? It's especially odd given that, according to HCAD records, the "Peace Foundation" does not own the building. It is owned by Landco (Raider). -
That's all correct, except for you conclusion. They did change the name. The Hilton's address is 1600 Lamar. No havoc created because the Hilton is the only thing on that short stretch of street.

But the same can be said about office buildings, shopping centers, restaurants, airports, performing arts centers, museums, hospitals, stadia, convention centers, etc etc etc. -
BLVD Place Mixed-Use: 1700 Post Oak Blvd.
Houston19514 replied to Subdude's topic in Uptown and Galleria Area
Notice the second clause of the following sentence taken from the article: "The project is set to break ground at the end of this year and open in 2009, with parts opening much sooner ." A couple factors involved in the longer construction timetable would be: This project is larger than the Houston Pavilions project. This project involves building new structures, then relocating current tenants to the new structures, then destroying existing buildings and building replacement structures; a good deal more complicated and time-consuming than starting with a stretch of empty land. -
Yes, the park will cover approximately 2-3 blocks worth of surface lots

Galveston Feasibility Study
Houston19514 replied to J.A.S.O.N.'s topic in Traffic and Transportation
And we should note it takes 1 hour and 5 minutes to travel the 32 miles between downtown Dallas and downtown Ft. Worth. (One thing you have ignored is the deceleration and acceleration time required for each stop. Even if they only stay at the station for 1 or 2 minutes, the total time lost is perhaps at least 5 minutes for each stop.) If a train ran at the same pace from Galveston to downtown Houston, we're talking something like a 1 3/4 hour trip. -
HMMM... I see what you are saying. I took the 8 available from Shirley Sanders.com, not HAR, because I thought her information was pretty reliable. Her website shows that 1 sold in March, 4 sold in April and that at the end of April, 15 were pending. That still doesn't account for the 75 unsold shown on HCAD.
