houstontexasjack Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 10 hours ago, hindesky said: Contractors say work could restart in June on X Houston, a 33-story skyscraper in the Museum District, several months after construction abruptly stopped on what was expected to be one of Houston’s largest co-living projects. X Houston was estimated to cost $107 million, according to initial state permit filings, which are subject to change. Since September 2023, subcontractors filed dozens of liens against affiliates of The X Co. for unpaid work and services tallying more than $67 million, according to Harris County deed records. Liens totaling about $38 million were filed by Hoar Construction, according to deed records. The remaining claims — ranging in amounts from $680 to $10.8 million — were filed by subcontractors such as mechanics, electricians and plumbers, records show. Contractors are working with the developer to resolve the liens, Johnson said: “That’s what we’re working toward, and they’re really close to finalizing those.” https://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/real-estate/article/coliving-tower-houston-construction-update-x-19433002.php I’m glad Hoar Construction is projecting optimism. A June construction timeline would match-up with the dismissal timeline in the foreclosure suits. 🤞 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post houstontexasjack Posted July 21 Popular Post Share Posted July 21 A couple lien releases recorded this month on this one. Still a lot of mechanic’s lien claims out there but there is a hint of positive movement. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 While I was walking to take some pics of the mural going up on the old Cotton Exchange building a couple of Keystone workers were going back to work after lunch at the Holiday Inn Express/Staybridge Suites. I asked if them if they were going back to X Houston(Keystone was the concrete contractor), they said in a couple months meaning October. I asked if Keystone got their money from the lawsuit and he said they got $10 mil but are still owed $4 mil. 🤗 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Those guys also said that Keystone owns the tower crane and it's not a rented crane. Said X has to pay for it being on site during the shut down period. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post hindesky Posted August 31 Popular Post Share Posted August 31 I drove by the Rone Residences this morning and saw a worker from Hoar. Asked him if they were coming back to X Houston. He said yes, in the next few months, said he doesn't have all the details but he heard they were going to finish it. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerNut Posted Monday at 07:12 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:12 PM I'm glad this is going to get finished. It's bad enough we have the holiday inn downtown that's been abandoned forever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
