SA: Aloft Houston Street!!

Where will this be located?

319 E. Houston Street

Has anyone heard from Andres or anyone else on the latest status of the proposed W-Hotel at this location? Is it still in play or is it toes-up?

The deal on that was supposed to be closed like 2 months ago already..so who knows

Interesting design. Wish the image was bigger and showed more. I'd like to see more of it. How tall was this supposed to be? How many floors?

14-stories when it was submitted to the city however that picture looks taller than 14-stories. If I had to guess I'd say it's 16-17-stories.

14 floors looks right. The top eight are more than half the height.

Oh well that looks nice.

Great. It really towers over all 10 stories of the Maverick apartments next door.

any condos with this development

That list is from Starwood and was published in an article from June.

Nice compilation of alofts. But yeah, Austin should be on there as well. Check out the Metroplex with 5! :whip:

I got the list from the aloft website.

Ground floor entrance lobby and retail, four stories of parking above, fifth floor main lobby, bar, pool, courtyard (views of the Alamo), eight room floors above.

The concept is approved by HDRC but a demo permit is still required. Without, this project will not move forward. Going to public meeting in October...

Aloft won't announce deals that aren't for sure, so cross your fingers.
