I think it's the same thing... do you see anything different about it?

Luckily, I saved the one on Wylie's site before the page was deleted. Yay for foresight!

Good for you. Saving that stuff. It helps...

Yes. We must not let them get away. Who do they think they are? Taunting us like that... For this they will feel our wrath.

I don't see anything different about it but I never saw it from such a low angle.

Page 100!

The last photo is very old. Discovery Green is there now.

Trae · #**1990** Posted **May 8, 2008, 10:45 PM**

I don't know. The last pic looks kind of realistic (like it can still happen).

Complex01 · #**1991** Posted **May 9, 2008, 2:02 PM**

There is still lots of room in downtown to put something like this in. Every time i go downtown i am like, there is a lot, there is a lot, and another lot. I dont think room is an issue, its just getting someone to invest and start something up...

On another project they are starting to raise the crane at the Legacy at Memorial & Studemont. I saw it as i drove by this morning. Cant wait to see it up...

These remind me of the projects involved for the Main Street Corridor Master Plan a few years back.

Double L · #**1995** Posted **May 10, 2008, 4:13 PM**

It looks like most of the development is occuring in the areas around The Texas Medical Center and the area around Discovery Green, with another major hub within Uptown.

Very cool.

I was searing the web and we have some updates on Regent Square. (Which i am glad, i really like this project).

Today from Swamplot.

"This new drawing provides a sneak peek of the latest plans for Regent Square in North Montrose."

The article also goes on to say that The 2 shadows are the condo towers and the apartments will be 5 and 8 stories in multiple buildings.

I did check their website and it has not been updated. However i pass by the site quite often, no dirt is moving, but hopefully that will change with this new stuff.

Xeelee · #**1997** Posted **May 13, 2008, 3:03 PM**

looks nice.

Saddle Man · #**1998** Posted **May 13, 2008, 7:46 PM**

This new plan is not nearly as impressive.

Trae · #**1999** Posted **May 13, 2008, 11:44 PM**

Doesn't look that different.

Great_Hizzy · #**2000** Posted **May 14, 2008, 1:04 AM**

I don't know if the new design is better but the new rendering doesn't seem to deliver as much of an impact. Still the frontprint and scope of the project are impressive.
