lockmat Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 What apartments, shopping centers or office buildings do you think are most likely to be demo'd for redevelopment?One that I think will make a huge impact and one that I'm looking forward to redevelopment is the Post Oak Center at the corner of Westheimer and Post Oak. When done, it will be humongous and the poshest in the city.Actually, three of the four corners of that intersection could be redeveloped to make it the undeniable place to be in Houston. Imagine 3 BLVD Places there.Realistically, those corners probably won't see action for 10-20 years.Maybe a more realistic place is are the buildings between Mid Lane and W Lane Drive.Do y'all have any predictions? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dream's Car Wash on San Felipe will probably see development. Maybe even the old Standford Financial Building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TowerSpotter Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I see the area within Post Oak Blvd, San Felipe, and Garrattson as a area highly to be developed. The more I look at it the more I realize it doesn't fit in with the rest of the transforming area.

Mab Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 This is probably a pretty obvious answer but northwest mall needs to be demolish and redevelop badly. It such a prime location it sad nothing has happen yet. Hopefully when they finish the 290 freeway project we will get a announcement of something new in that prime piece ofl land.

If cards are played right, it might become a "transit-oriented mall", like Mondawmin Mall in Baltimore. The Macy's probably won't be reopened, especially with the corner cut of the ROW cutting so class in like that. It will never be a regional shopping mall again, that's for sure.

lockmat Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 I feel like that mall is just on the outside of a "good area." Just north of there is not that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I feel like that mall is just on the outside of a "good area." Just north of there is not that great.It's amazing how the neighborhoods change so quickly immediately north. Northwest mall is probably one of only 2 malls I've never been to (that and Northline). It's a huge piece of land, and I'm curious what will develop in the coming decade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockmat Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 I would say a logical spot for new development for downtown would be the block bounded by Dallas, La Branch, Lamar and Austin, if it wasn't for that dumb sub station. Is there any way they could or would want to relocate it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
