Did some quick searching and came across some new info.

Renderings of the 10-story office building. You can see the residential high-rise in the background, design looks the same just a lot more detailed.

The Greenwich Group International, LLC, as exclusive investment banker, has arranged approximately $70 million in construction financing for development of two medical office buildings (MOBs), respectively located in Houston and Austin, TX. Museo Plaza, the Houston project, in addition to a MOB of 142,000 sf, also is expected to contain a 58-story residential tower with 300+ luxury units and a 160-key boutique hotel. The hotel, MOB and residential tower each occupy a full city block in a strategic location about two miles from the world-renowned Texas Medical Center and about one mile from Rice University. “With the hotel and apartment tower additions to the Houston MOB; the development will be more than an office, Museo Plaza will become a vibrant community,” Steve Lorenz and Buzz Shattan, executives of Greenwich Group said in a joint statement.

Site of phase I was cleared in November:

I thought this died along time ago. Nice to see that something is still happening. Nicer to see a 58 story tower go up there first. Soon...hopefully.

Which one is the first to rise/is there an updated rendering? It's doesn't look 58 stories at all in the one on the first page or in the latest link. Design looks cool though.

There are 3 buildings involved in this project and three phases. The first is the 10 story office building. The second will be the 58 story residential building. And the third will be a 12 story hotel building.

The construction pictures are of the 10 story medical office building.

Medical Office Building is now open - the 58-story residential tower and luxury hotel sound like they are still on the table per the HBJ.

Photos: Museum District medical office building just the beginning for Mann Eye Institute's founder

By Jeff Jeffrey – Reporter, Houston Business Journal

Now that the Mann Eye Institute's new medical office building has opened in the Museum District, founder Dr. Mike Mann has shared more plans about the mixed-use development it will anchor.

The institute's new headquarters sit at the corner of Fannin Street and Southmore Boulevard, at 5115 Fannin, across the street from the practice’s former offices. Because Mann maintains ownership of his former offices, his long-term vision for the site is to raze them, making way for a luxury hotel and a 58-story multifamily tower. Hotel guests and multifamily residents will be able to access the office building and the restaurants it will house via a skybridge, Mann told the Houston Business Journal.

The idea, Mann said, is to create a self-sustaining ecosystem within the development, in which employees working in the office building can live in the apartment tower and medical patients have easy access to the hotel after undergoing surgery.

“The hotel is really the key to the whole project,” Mann said. “It will allow surgery patients to get back to their hotel room to rest up much more easily because it’s right across the street.”

However, Mann declined to provide many specifics about the next phase of development, other than to say that the hotel and the multifamily tower will incorporate some of the design elements used in the office building.

The Museo Medical Office Building building was designed by Marko Dasigenis of Houston-based PJMD Architects in collaboration with Dallas-based Huitt-Zollars, and the development was inspired by the Museum District’s neighboring art, science and cultural museums. The design drew upon elements of early 20th century analytical cubism, which was made famous by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Analytical cubism used fragmentation to break up forms and reconstruct them in abstract fashion to create an illusion of depth and perception.
