Re: OX-OP Gallery and Residences.

Tried to capture this from all 4 sides. Really actually blends in nice enough against the brick of the Dayblock building.

The old structure has been 90% demolished. Crews from Centerpoint Energy have been working over the past two weeks adding in new (increased) piping for gas service lines as well.

Highly recommend the public comments in this one. There are a handful of useful comments about making space for dogs and loading (which the developer has responded to) and a lack of retail space (which is not addressed and actually is a big issue for this area, it needs to be included on the corner...

Exterior paneling has started to go onto this. I'll try and grab a photo from the side and back, as this picture only shows a fraction of the building (wraps around the Dayblock building).
