Interesting story on "lofty" Houston, Ksquared.
Yes, lofts have become trendy in the past decade.
... red-brick developments like the Manhattan, a new building in the high-end Galleria shopping district.
My office building was connected to the Galleria shopping mall, so I'm familiar with all the construction that's going on in that area now. But I can't place which project is the Manhattan ... will have to look for it.
The Galleria has undergone a lot of renovation and addition of a new wing in the past year, including a Nordstrom store, the first for Houston. When CNBC does a business report on Nordstrom, it always has piano music in the background, a running gag on the piano player that NYC's Nordstrom features for a little added class. So when I entered the Galleria's Nordstrom for the first time last week, I wondered if there would be a piano player, and there wasn't. Instead, their sound system was playing Elvis' Jailhouse Rock, and I thought, "Wow, this place really does have class." <gg> Maybe after 47 years, Elvis has finally arrived in an upscale environment.
