We don't have renderings for them yet. They are in the pipeline, based on the FAA filings. They would be in the two blocks immediately to the north of this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mollusk, I hope your wrong because Camden just built a multi level parking garage under the new Midtown project and the new midtown park.

CREguy13 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 With the work schedule ending October 2022, I assume they're planning to have all 3 towers built by then, so we can expect activity in this area of Midtown for the next 4.5 years? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure. I reached out to Caydon to see if I could find anything more about the other two towers. My hunch is that we won't know anything more until the first tower is complete or nears completion, at which point they may move onto other construction.

Popular Post urbanize713 Posted January 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2018 I kept wondering why this one corner was dug out. Appears to be the second crane base. Also notice they are working on Sunday. I like this projects ambition. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtterlyUrban Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 They obviously know what they are doing but, wow!, the logistics of getting that concrete there and then getting it poured “in time/before it starts to set-up” must be a sight to see! wow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post hindesky Posted February 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2018 These two cranes came from the Latitude Hotel Apartment project in the TMC on S. Main, the east crane was the one on Main St and the west crane going up this weekend was the crane on Travis St that was taken down a couple weeks ago, this according to a Heede rigger. I asked about the crane at the Hanover River Oaks since it's a Heede base and he said they would be putting it up in a couple weeks. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 This building, being of modest height, will appear much taller I think due to it being the only high rise in the area and it being relatively close to the freeway. I think it'll be a more dramatic impact on the area than other buildings of similar height elsewhere such as the Galleria or Med Center. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they bury anything it will occur behind the convention center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
