Anyone think we could use a General Developments thread?
A General Developments as well as High Rise Developments threads? Would help distinguish all the mid rise apartments and other various city projects from all the skyscrapers going up. Maybe in a few months once things really get going.
Anyone think we could use a General Developments thread?
Yes. It would definitely help to separate the highrises from all of the midrises and other things going on around here (ie: Buffalo Bayou, things like that)...

There's a pretty steady level of activity with the low & midrise apartments and office projects that are going up and are planned, as well as with the improvements along the Bayou, and the expansions at the Menil & MFAH on the horizon.
Ok, thanks everyone! I'll start working on it this week. Only thing I worry about is that it will not receive much activity besides news articles and picture updates.

Okayyyy.............

THE SELF-PROCLAIMED “industry insider” behind a new office-space rumor website tells Swamplot that it’s “well-known . . . amongst the tenant/landlord representative crowd” that Amegy Bank has purchased the 4.13-acre site at 1717 West Loop South just north of San Felipe that’s currently home to Houston’s only Micro Center store. The owner and would-be seller of the property, according to county tax records, is the Ohio-based parent company of the 47,800-sq.-ft. computer and electronics store, which has been operating in that location since 1994. There is only one other Micro Center location in Texas.
“The property, which is just down the street from [Amegy Bank's] current office at Five Post Oak Park,” reports the rumor site, “is the supposed site for Amegy to build their own 10-12 story office tower. Rumblings suggest that this move is the result of a lease renewal disagreement between Amegy and their current landlord Shorenstein.”
Additional Residential (two buildings in the back)
I was under the impression Azalea Court was gonna be directly ON Westheimer, where you could see it from the street. That would have been a pretty site.
