Hey guys, this is Richard Webner, the reporter from the Express-News. I just stumbled on this forum and I love it.
I added more info to the article about this building, which you should be able to read
here. The tower will be part of the upscale Thompson Hotels chain and will have 167 hotel rooms, 61 condos, a spa, a rooftop bar, a 3,600-square-foot ballroom, a restaurant on the street level and an outdoor pool on the fifth floor. It's being developed by a group that includes Roberto Contreras of Houston EB5, which is working on lots of projects in Houston.
