So what do you do that takes up a lot of land and brings in at least a little revenue? Otherwise you just leave it sitting and who knows what starts occupying it. Revenue, and perhaps as important, activity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying that a golf course is not entertainment, but it serves a certain demographic. From what I see, It just seems like the main tenants are a dentistry and a lickem' ice cream parlor. It's just hard to get too excited about that. The golf course will be a good addition, but I guess I just want to see a little bit more. It would be great to see more on plans on how they can better utilize the Bayou. Like some talks of some boat tours or water taxi connections between ER and downtown. Maybe throw in a comedy club in there somewhere somewhere. On a positive note, Midway usually has a good reputation. This place was being advertised as being Houston's version of a Riverwalk but right now, It still feels so.... business oriented! I mean they're just tenants. I def don't get the "business oriented" vibe. This thing is going to spur similar development around it. I can only imagine what this place will look like in 10 years.

If this is what students can do these days then thats significant progress from when I was in school haha 2. We all have our sense of aesthetics, you have yours and I have mine. To me its just fine. I'm not a fan of realistic architectural renders, nor do they wow me since most people have the capability to produce these. The quality looks good to me. I think someone up'ed the bloom a bit to much. Just a tad washed out, but it seems to me they want to impart an idea that this is nice bright open space. 3. General design is fine. Its industrial chic and that is very in line with Method Architectures thing. It seems to be good approach for them. Is it my thing? .. Seen way to much now. Not that I don't like it. Just seen to much at this point. 4. Color scheme is definitely...eclectic. Its the kind of eclectic that seems to have a purpose though. I personally think this variety of color is a tad distracting for an office environment. This scheme for a candy store? Yes. This scheme for an arch firm? Not my cup of tea. It is fun looking though. Guess thats the vibe they want. If this were me right now grading this at a criq. for final review, I would say there is nothing "wrong" with any of this, but its definitely not something I would immediately appreciate. This is simply a very specific and particular approach they want to go which I both admire, but it means it narrows the scope/amount of people whom could appreciate it.
