We don't know. It's still in the permitting process. Flooding/Waller Creek tunnel/Atlas 14 issues seem to be the hold up.

This to me says it's probably going to be a few years from now.

They still have the Republic Tower to market as well. It will be interesting to see whether The Republic or 92 Red River becomes their marketing focus after 6xG.

The crown is what I hate most of this building...I Think it would look so much better if a spire was added to it. Otherwise it's just a silly giant shed roof

Do you know if they have financing?

This one seems good to go, and a high end hotel brand is on board.

Source?

Any idea as to the brand?

Do they have construction financing?

The site plan changes are still awaiting approval. The open items seem to be related to flooding and right of way issues - not the building. That will all be sorted out and approved.

The source on the hotel is one of the anonymous leakers that provided elevations before news of this project was public. Brand not specified, but the often used "five star hotel" was used to describe it. No comment yet on financing.

Lots of new info was released today. I'm sorting through it for anything interesting. It will have three Luffing cranes.

I didn't check the previous info for changes but the version awaiting approval will have:

677K Sq Ft Office
528K Sq Ft Residential (352 units)
185K Sq Ft Hotel (232 rooms)
20K Sq Ft Retail

The ATX · #**1519** Posted **Sep 28, 2021, 9:50 PM**

New elevations indicate a height of 1,022'.

I don't have time right now to look through all the 10 file attachments that were added to the site plan today. But here's the site plan if anybody wants to look for more stuff:
