Daisy3600 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 We went there yesterday and we were not pleased at all. I ordered a croissant with chocolate butter. They were supposed to heat the croissant so the butter would melt. Nope. I had ordered it to go and 2 minutes outside the shop I realized the croissant was not warm and there were four cold chunks of butter on my croissant. I waited 10 minutes for this?The chocolate was yummy but I was only able to enjoy it with 4 or 5 bites of my croissant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 so what's the latest on this 17/21 story building to be going up? Also what about the Anadarko expansion? Aren't they getting a new sister tower as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 (edited) Where is this at exactly?Is it across the street from Market Street/HEB area, near Cynthia Woods? Or is it closer to the old movie theater near Landrys?Here are some renderings of the waterway projects:http://www.thewoodlands.com/woodlands-commercial/ Edited June 21, 2007 by lockmat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieDidIt Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 bye a house anywhere along or south of 242 and your value is going through the ceiling! What a great place to live. Not really. From an investment standpoint, you are lucky to break even out in the burbs. I would never buy this far out from a major city with the intention of making money. We are currently selling and hoping to break even with what we have put into the house. IMHO, the cool down has begun in Sterling Ridge.

Aren't they getting a new sister tower as well?i doubt anadarko is working on the "sister" tower, being as they've recently laid off 3000 employees.i do not think the hotel and residential tower will come about until after the completion of waterway square, 24 waterway and adjacent restaurants.

wxman Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I was at Baker St. Pub last night and it looks like 24 Waterway will top out next week. They are currently working on the 12th floor. I can't wait for the 21 story highrise to go in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfootball Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) i doubt anadarko is working on the "sister" tower, being as they've recently laid off 3000 employees.This was back in 2003 when this information relayed to me by the project manager of the first tower. Things may have changed since then. Prior to the layoffs the company boasted about never ever having a layoff, even during the oil bust of the 1980's. The bulk of the recent layoffs (as I understand them) came from overlap created when Anadarko merged several companies. They're hiring again, so who knows? The Waterway is coming along great though. Very impressive. Edited July 23, 2007 by mrfootball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's across the street from the original tinsletown. It's coming along nicely. I'll head over there and take some pics when I get a chance.

bachanon Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 lot cleared across waterway plaza from 24 waterway avenue. nothing officially announced, could be hotel or residential tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxman Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I noticed that! I drove in from College Station (I go to A&M) and couldn't believe the trees that were gone. They have cleared a lot at the corner of Woodlands Pkwy and Many Pines and also a lot right next to 24 Waterway (as you've already stated). Just amazing. It will be called "The Woodless" if all this building keeps up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockmat Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Looks like the structure itself is done. They're probably just finishing the inside. I'll see if I can take some pics today if I have time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bachanon Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 i think the topic moved away from the title of the thread and over to 24 waterway. the first company moved in to the ninth floor this past weekend. interior of ninth floor by ziegler cooper.

Are they one in the same?I guess I'm not sure. I think bachanon is correct. I always get all the 'waterways' mixed up. Maybe someone can googlemap the image of this 17-story residential and 10-story boutique hotel so we can get back on topic and on the same page.

bachanon Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 actually, theniche just posted an announcement about "4 waterway square". this could mean that either the condo or the hotel tower are out of luck. they were just in the master plan. market forces may have changed the priority on one or both of those.btw, waterway avenue is a street. the woodlands waterway is the waterway itself. waterway square is the public space that most of these building are being built around.
