when the market conditions are right in the next decade or so — the investors could transform the southern portion of the 80 acres closest to the airport into a mixed-use development featuring Houston’s first automated parking garage, Levine said. The investors plan to keep a multifamily component to the property, Levine added.
Automated parking garages use a mechanical elevator-like system to maximize the number of cars that can be parked on a single lot. They cost as much or a little less than conventional parking garages, but can free up substantial space for other development projects, like hotels and retail shops that could be built near Hobby Airport.

The company's current headquarters, next door at 3333 Richmond Ave., will be demolished after the company moves to the new building, and will become the site of a boutique hotel, said Wade Bowlin, executive vice president of PM Realty Group, which is developing and marketing the project.

The hotel brand has not yet been selected, but once complete, the hotel will connect to the office building with a garden terrace that will be exclusive to office tenants and hotel guests.

Commercial developers also continue to build projects amid the downturn in oil prices.

Hopefully Alliance sold the Buffalo Bayou frontage to the developer they out bid that wanted to build a couple 30 story towers along the park. heh

Did you mean Tom Petty? Surely you weren't calling me "too petty" after the posts you made earlier. And what do you mean "let's"..? Last I checked I was driving through West Texas with no cell phone service when yall got the H vs D thread shut down.. Don't try to drag me into that. But anyways... hopefully you will take your own advice so this thread stays civil..
