HTOWN LIVE Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Would rather see Zone D'erotica and the Shell gone first. On one side of the Galleria two new Hyatt Hotels...on the other side, not so much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Purify Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I agree, Texasota. This design couldn't possibly be more bland or less impactful to the skyline and streetscape. And good luck to the scores of guests trying to cross the street to the Galleria (and good luck to us trying to drive through there). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchFan Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Let's uproot the Mercer and move it to Dallas. Good idea and actually rather appropriate. When it was under construction, I was told it was built by a foreign-born developer operating out of Dallas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I think it's been half-repainted. Maybe the whole thing needs to be stained a nice cherry color, then they could put some huge swinging glass doors on the front of it, and we can put all our Royal Doulton knick-knacks on display there. That way, they won't have to decorate the outside of Randall Davis' buildings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richfish Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I noticed they repainted the Mercer the other day.I'm still trying to figure out who the heck is paying for that. They redid all the windows and it's taken nearly a year of work repainting the thing. It must be costing a fortune, yet a few units have been up for sale and sold quickly with reasonable HOA fees and seemingly no special assessments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) "Reasonable" and "HOA" are two words I never thought I'd see in the same sentence, considering the average HOA in Texas is more rapacious than its counterparts in northern Virginia.
