J.A.S.O.N. Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 New condos on seawall, just west of the new "Ocean Grove Condos"... http://img110.imageshack.us/img110/376/islandgrove7wq.jpg http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2951/alberca24yr.jpg Storms don't stop developer from building By Laura Elder The Daily News Published March 16, 2006 GALVESTON - After last year's hurricanes, some island developers had second thoughts. Miguel A. Prida had thoughts of seconds. With his $17 million Ocean Grove project under construction at 9420 Seawall Blvd., Prida is planning a second high-rise project just down the street. http://news.galvestondailynews.com/story.l...55a2c380cbe56c3 http://www.islandgrovecondos.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNiche Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Wow, he must've severely underpriced the penthouses if they've all presold already. Its really amazing how much is going on down there.It sure is a shame that all that West End stuff is going to be wiped out one day. Perhaps that'll be what it takes to get the seawall extended.

Did I so thoroughly annoy you on the global warming post that you're just looking for trouble now? Edited March 17, 2006 by TheNiche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalparadise Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 These look like 1974 construction. Not everything that gets built is good. Galveston is cooler than this. This developer should be ashamed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
