nativehoustonion Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Who cares most of the employes will live in the Houston Metro area bringing in so much money. Those 55 members should stay in Irvine. Who cares! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avossos Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 ExxonMobil is not moving HQ to Houston, The Woodlands, or anywhere else. Why does this rumor persist?Because it seems like a logical next step Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Never say never. Exxon picked up and left New York in 1989 without dropping many hints. Everyone involved (including the poor saps at Friendswood Development Corp.) was told not to let the cat out of the bag.

bachanon Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 too bad they couldn't bring themselves to have mixed use buildings. i understand they have to rush to capture demand that is off the charts....it's still disappointing when i see the development. it's a lost opportunity to continue what had begun in the waterway square district. so boring... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes Landing's One Lakes Edge (pictured) was the firm's first self-performed apartment project, and it has its second and third planned in Maryland and Vegas. It's also looking into building a second multifamily tower in Hughes Landing, which Peter says would probably be 250 to 400 units and could break ground in about six months. Howard Hughes is loving the niche, and Peter tells us it's considering building age-restricted senior living projects as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFootsSocks Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 This just in; conflicting reports surrounding the HL Development. Did Howard Hughes deliberately create this so-called "cheaply built" mess to divert attention from his ultimate plot of taking down MH370? This has been CNN's local report on Houston. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The further west you go, the more country it seems to get. Reminds me of Abilene, if Abilene had money. I'm not saying seeing/hearing/smelling country people are a bad thing just an observation. It's interesting how the growth of the Woodlands has turned sleepy backwoods places like Cut & Shoot into a suburb.I hope the leaders continue their vision and don't lose their edge to less expensive places like Spring & Conroe. I guess these developments are just that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was of course talking about the woodlands in general...when i lived there, greenspoint (gunspoint) was the closest mall and there was no shopping and like 2 restaurants so we went to Casa Elena every night (and Claytons was the only real grocery store...) may both r.i.p. Oh AND THE big thing to do was go ice skating at the woodlands athletic center then shop at Soundbox music store for record...yes, records! haha! loved that!
