Absolutely beautiful inside! Also, the amenities and restaurants are top tier. The building is beautiful and it's in an excellent location. It's right across the street from Buffalo Bayou Park and Trails with easy access to Eleanor Tinsley Park and a great dog park!

Can’t even look at Houston’s skyline because of the building’s hideous bright light. Eyes are literally hurting when I want to just enjoy the views of Houston Skyline. Please take down these lights!!!

This new building is, hands down, the most hideous building I have seen at night. It is a bright, white LED monstrosity that looks cartoonish in comparison to the rest of the downtown Houston skyline. When I bought my rooftop property, this was being built. I had no idea that they were going to light it with walmart-looking bright lights up and down the entire building. It contrasts against the rest of the skyline. If I could define "light pollution" with one picture, it would be this building.

Aside from it being a nuisance to the park goers. Not like Tinsley Park to have so much light pollution at night. Kills the entire vibe that weve enjoyed for years. What about its effect on the famous nocturnal bat colony. At least install a dimmer switch. No building in downtown shines as bright.
