This doesn't sound like its going to happen. Does anybody believe any of the estimated costs at this point? Especially when somebody says tunnel. I remember somebody from Texas Central telling me way back before the pandemic why they stopped the line at a mall just outside of Loop 610 in Houston and...

It's not just on the other side of the lake, it's way up there. Interesting spot for this. Maybe being a casino and a Hard Rock Casino it will be a draw.

Anything significant happening over here? I can see it from our building but not very well. Looks like there are some materials that have been brought in, maybe for utility work? Not sure.

My guess is FW is a stop because they want to then turn south to Austin. Connect the triangle. That was never the Texas Central plan, Austin isn't large enough to justify a link and when it got to that point the solution was to connect a line to Bryan/College Station not directly to Dallas or Fort ...

Maybe they are making adjustments to the plan, could they potentially make it taller? I don't know how much stick you can pile on these podiums.

I have noticed a lot of utility work going on around this property for months. Not that it means anything i just can't help but notice since I have to drive past it so much.

Agreed. Glad to see they are being reused. I always assumed they would become medical office buildings associated with UTSW. I didn't see anything in the summary mentioning shared parking garage(s). If this is a hit, which I would think it would be, perhaps a future iteration would include midrise ...

The Perots should stick to developing cargo airports and warehouses. They don't have a clue on how to market and/or build Class A projects! That is so true. They have had a modest success with low rise buildings, but they just don't have depth of experience to pull off a big Downtown tower. The Per...

Personally, I think the Uptown location is just so much better. Right on the park and lots of places to eat plus great hotels all in walking distance. It just feels more alive right there. The Perot site doesn't have the same feel.
