toxtethogrady Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 It a damn shame when outsiders have more faith in Houston than a Houston bases companyI think it's the banks that are not showing faith. Had there been a national-scale bank in Houston, the money might have been there (of course that's why there are no national-scale banks in Houston anymore).

Sunstar Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 They have a webcam for this project like they did for the first one? They still have the old one up, but it stopped showing live images since 7-2-14. http://oxblue.com/open/SkyHouseApartments Seems like they just need to turn it back. As you can see, Block 334 has added a whole floor since then!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtterlyUrban Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I wonder how leased tower 1 is. Since they are building another one next to it. I only saw two yelp reviews.Several months a go I read somewhere that it was something like 45% leased and that number was well ahead of predictions. If that trend has continued, they may be upwards of 65% now. I also seem to recal that a building in the 85% range is considered "fully leased" and anything above that is just icing on the cake. At one a year or so ago, One Park Place was reported in the news to be 94% leased (if I recall correctly). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bachanon Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 i apologize if this is common knowledge, but have we reached capacity for the per unit incentives for downtown? i'm curious if the business plan for this next tower benefits from the incentives.

But I am fairly certain that Novarre received DLI incentives for this project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, that's like saying 5% unemployment is "fully employment." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonIsHome Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 334 should top off soon now that it is mainly wood framing from now on. I see them taking forever on the interior and exterior work though.The thing with skyhouse, once they get the foundation and groundwork done, the floors fly up. Just about one a week. So 334 SHOULD top off in 3 months and shyhouse in about 7. But the might be delivered at the same time. If skyhouse tops off before 334, then the contractor needs to take up a new job cooking molasses or something 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 yeah, i talked to a site manager(?) a little while back at SkyHouse River Oaks and he said his crew would be moving over to this one soon.does anyone know when this SkyHouse was announced in relation to when SkyHouse RO broke ground, or SkyHouse RO compared to SkyHouse Houston? I'm wondering if/when we might expect an announcement for a SkyHouse 4. IMO that will be the announcement, or lack there of, that shows how bullish these guys really are on Houston. I'm not sure they would of moved forward with this one, given the recent shift in market confidence, if it weren't for the downtown incentives. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
