CREguy13 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I also like seeing that Giorgetti Houston is now 25% sold. Both of these projects are a great addition to UK. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFootsSocks Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 PM is a vague-ish term; a civil firm with ~20 employees might have 5-6 engineers, most of which are technically PM's along with their associates titles. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) Isn't it possible that they are getting busier and perhaps needed to add more help. I would imagine there is a project manager for every job. Edited July 6, 2017 by bobruss 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KinkaidAlum Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Looked like they were drilling on-site today. Hard to see with the fencing but definitely lots of activity. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KinkaidAlum Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Got a glimpse tonight in the darkness. They've dug a huge hole for either the foundation pour or maybe even an underground parking level? It's quite large and looks to cover the entire footprint of the building. The wind has torn off the windscreens so you can catch a glimpse but it was too dark to capture a good photo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post hindesky Posted December 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2017 I rode by and happened to talk with a guy. He said it's only going to be one floor deep basement with a podium parking garage, 1 tower crane on the southeast corner. He said they tried to buy the property on the northwest corner but the guy wouldn't sell but he gets $100,000 for having the tower crane boom flying over his property. They are attempting to get Beck's Prime to sell their northeast corner and place them in the GFR. He also said the HEB project will be starting up soon. No trucks will be allowed to to travel west of the corner on Steel St thus protecting the Oak trees, all trucks will enter on Kipling and exit on Steel St. corner near Kirby heading eastbound only. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the HEB mixed-use does break ground soon the three would all rise together at some point. Quite the addition to UK, densifying the area while extending mixed-use southward (Kirby Collection does this as well). 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevelopmentX Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Am I the only frustrated by some of the land deals that adversely affect some of these impressive new developments? 1) Asia Society- Yosio Taniguchi had to change the entire orientation of his first ground-up structure in the US due to the fact that the house adjacent wouldn't sell and then they went ahead and sold after the museum was completed. 2) Rice Village- This old house owned by Allied Home Health wouldn't initially sell in Rice Village which is why Randall Davis couldn't initially build-out the corner in his failed development that eventually became Hanover's.. 3) Beck's Prime- first of all - greta burger but dumpy outdated restaurant building. They have help up the site lines for this beautiful development by not selling the land. Honestly, these real estate problems leaves so many of these developments looking hodge podge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Hines developed the Galleria there was an office building that wouldn't sell and Hines eventually dug a 30 foot pit around the building on three sides and meanwhile offered them (Michel T. Halbouty) space in a new office building across the street. They sold. Sometimes you just gotta make it worth their while.
