I’m surprised this has not been mentioned yet. TMC3, $1.5 Billion BioResearch Campus is underway. https://i.imgur.com/KHg4FQZh.jpg High-rise Tower |

Nice update photos!
|
Thanks for the updates!
North Montrose and the Heights are blowing up with apartments near the bayous, which coincidentally have added a lot of new hiking and biking infrastructure along with flood control. I really like the black brick on the Montrose Collective, that's going to be really sleek. |
Kirby Grove Phase II: Office Tower
Per Urbannizer on HAIF: ~160,000 sf of office ~15,000 sf of retail https://cw-gbl-gws-prod.azureedge.ne...a18dda026e6b63 |
Looks like corner of Eastside and Richmond where the Upper Kirby building used to be and just behind Levy Park.

Uptown skyline from about 2 weeks ago:

Wow, great shot!
|
Agreed. Reminds me of one I saw posted here. It was taken from the 225/610 interchange flyover during/right after Tropical Storm Allison. It included 5 skylines in one shot.

Yeah, that's a really nice flattering photo of Houston.

Great shot. That part of northern montrose is really blowing up along Buffalo Bayou/ W Dallas St.

Great picture Brijonmang. That’s a nice angle if you want to show someone how nice individual buildings in the downtown skyline are. You can go from left to right and focus on each individual building and it’s style and that drive down Allen Parkway headed towards downtown is the perfect drive to show the uniqueness of each of those buildings too. It makes each building standout but doesn’t do as much for the downtown skyline as a collective whole. I don’t like it as an overall skyline view because it gives people the impression that Downtown Houston’s skyline has a lot of gaps and is spaced out between buildings.
I like the Downtown Houston skyline view from the south, from UH. Houston looks like the beast that it should rightfully be recognized as being, no major gaps either, and plenty of density. And great fill in between the two supertalls too. https://www.uh.edu/magazine/2017-fal...licy-polls.jpg https://www.uh.edu/magazine/2017-fal...licy-polls.jpg |
That's my favorite perspective as well.
|
Indeed. I remember someone from a while back... from the Houston Dev Thread I from... 2001 or perhaps even before that... to add BladeRunner style flitters in the night time skyline shot of Houston... to make it seem like a futuristic cityscape. Pretty cool.

Runner up might be the approach from the Southwest Freeway - maybe starting around Sugar Land or Stafford where Westchase shows up and you start moving past it toward Uptown where that skyline completely dominates, while Greenway and Downtown start getting closer and closer. Then again, thanks to development, you can actually see the Williams Tower from ROSENBERG now on the elevated portion of 59. That made me do a double take on my last visit in December. Hadn't tried to see if I could see any of the other towers. |

I thought I remember see a photo last year that showed downtown had lots of surface parking spaces? From what I have been hearing, it seems like Houston does need more residential downtown, although I see they are building one or two residential towers. Hope the residential densification in some of the other areas, like Montrose, comes to downtown. How many people live downtown and is there a grocery store now? |

Also to be fair, within a mile of downtown accessible via high frequency all day all week transit you have Randalls, Whole Foods, Fiesta, Kroger, Sprouts, a Target, even a Super Walmart. Houston has a lot of retail and things you need in the general core of the city, just not in the downtown proper. Except for that Phoenicia of course.
I think an Aldi's would be a nice fit downtown though. I'm surprised you don't see more of those in an urban setting. My money would be on an H-E-B though because they have urban style stores (ground floor retail space below other things, with garage parking) around the city already. |

This is the same area in the photo above seen from a different direction in 2018. There are already at least two completed high rise residential buildings not yet in this view. https://live.staticflickr.com/4824/3...00663619_b.jpg Its beginning to look like Christmas in Houston by Raul Cano, on Flickr View from another direction in 2019. Again, there are two (42 and 46 story) high rise residential buildings under construction not seen in this photo. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...9619731a_b.jpg MinuteMaidNight by Raul Cano, on Flickr Everything in these 2 photos was a parking lot in 1980. https://live.staticflickr.com/1980/3...087f91c6_b.jpg Avenida, Houston by Bill Jacomet, on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/2892/3...ccf43a4a_b.jpg Los Skarnales at Avenida by Bill Jacomet, on Flickr The freeway in this photo is the same freeway as in the 40-year-old photo at top. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...69dfb605_b.jpg Downtown Houston Skyline-EaDo by Mabry Campbell, on Flickr Finally found a photo that shows the location of Discovery Green Park beyond the Convention Center. The photo is five years old so it's already obsolete. The freeway in the 40-year-old photo is directly behind the convention center. The black building on the right in the old photo at top can just be seen peaking out from behind the building with gray and black horizontal stripes just right of center in this photo. https://live.staticflickr.com/1627/2...840ff849_b.jpg Discovery Green by russell.hancock, on Flickr |
Houston lags far behind most cities its size as far as downtown residential but has built a lot in a fairly short amount of time. I suspect in another decade or so, it will look/ feel drastically different.

That Chicago number seems awfully low and must be the just Loop and not anything north of the river which is loaded with residential.
