There's no HGI in this photo, are y'all referring to the Hyatt or the Hampton? I quite like the Hyatt Place but the Hampton is trash.

The actual downtown HGI isn't very pretty either.

I have stayed at the Hampton Inn and Suites after attending a wedding at what is now The Chive HQ. Went to the Cedar Door afterwards. Affordable and perfect for what I needed. Had a great time.

Plus I feel it is a poverty siding homage to the Stephen F. Austin hotel. So it has a tad bit of merit. Ok Im done backing it lol.

I assume all 3 of those hotels are on 20 year lifespans and were built as such.

The Hyatt Place there is actually pretty nice. I stayed there on a business trip back to Austin once before we moved back. Decent views also.

Street closures for tower crane installation - the dates haven't been added to the permit yet.

EDIT: The date was added and it's the first weekend in June (06/04-06/06).

Since this one does not have underground levels, it seems like cement may have been poured by now signifying that it is officially U/C. Has anybody been by the site recently?

Drove past the site today. Full on construction at this point with lots of rebar on site.

Are columns going up? The tower crane is still scheduled to go up the first weekend in June.

I'm pretty sure I saw them Saturday already working on the columns. I was busy but noticed a bunch of things going on and just remembered thinking how quickly that one turned up. I didn't realize they were starting on it so soon.

Pretty much.

Wait... Maybe I am confused here. There are two of the same tower going up with this and Republic Square... Or am I missing something? Is this Sim City?

corvairkeith · #**174** Posted **May 27, 2021, 5:32 AM**

Three if you count the one going up on East Avenue.

Basically, yes.

Crane base is on site.

The ATX · #**178** Posted **Jun 6, 2021, 11:17 AM**

The crane installation is still scheduled for next weekend. They seem to be on track for it.

I think our rain chances are starting to go down now. They're even dropping rain chances from the forecast by the end of next week, so hopefully, that helps speed up some of these.

The ATX · #**180** Posted **Jun 7, 2021, 1:18 AM**

I want to change the status of this project to U/C really bad. But damn it, there are still no visible signs of columns going up.
