What materials would you use if you were building these? What design changes would you make? I have very little imagination when it comes to that part of building, and would probably build these exactly as they appear, so am curious as to the alternatives. I think that in terms of costs, and going on the assumption that these are somewhat disposable buildings, there's not a lot wrong. Our house is 70+ years old, frame, and had cedar shakes. We replaced the cedar with Hardi 8 years ago, so the house is pretty much the same as these apartments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something street-oriented and not dingbatty (ground floor street engagement). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 This is why we can't have nice smooth roads in Houston. Developers cut in to the street to tie their utilities to the city's but never repair it like it was, it's either dips or bumps. Surprised city inspectors let them get away with it.💵 Most developers will go back with asphalt instead of the original concrete. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 The paint lines look a bit...strange. They appear to based on distance from the top of the windows instead of being the same on all sides. I don't think I've seen that color scheme before, so that's at least something different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, while I do lament the ugly, car-oriented design, I am pretty happy to see the market producing apartments geared toward affordability. Now, if they hit the market north of $1500 for a 1BR, I'll change my tune, but if they can bring them to market at say, $1300 all-inclusive, that's pretty good for brand new. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonIsHome Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Wait a minute... These are new builds? Looks like some of the ancient apartments in Montrose. Definitely not what I think of when I think of Binz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
