I'm proud of White Lodging and all, and boy they don't screw around when they want to build something . . . . but could they have made this look any more like a Baby JW? A little differentiation goes a long way, IMO.
This looks to be the first big project (~30+ floors) to break ground in a year. 70 Rainey, Third + Shoal and Austin Proper all broke ground in August-September last year. That seems like a long time. I hope a few of the other big ones start fairly soon.
I noticed that a lot of the demo fencing was removed when I drove by this morning. The removed fencing was along the parking lot on Cesar Chavez as seen in the TOWERS photo below. Hopefully it was removed so they can bring in heavy equipment for the Demo.
Have there been any updates for this tower? Demo started?
Nope. Just walked by it on my lunch break Friday -- seemingly negative movement. No action at the site, and a good bit of the construction fencing was stacked at the back of the lot.

Hopefully the demo starts soon, don't know what their waiting for.
Here's a photo of the demo from the TOWERS link that We vs us posted. The photo is a still from a short video of the demo.
I went by the site earlier today, and only the restaurant was demo'ed. The small parking lot next to the former Christian reading center was full of cars. I don't know why there were so many cars parked there because the demo crew amounted to mainly one guy and his excavator death machine.

In case anyone is wondering why demo on the site was only partially completed, the buildings are being demo'ed with separate permits. Only the permit for the demo of the former restaurant building has been approved so far.

We should take bets on when the building starts to rise out of the ground. I'll say Jan 2019.
