You bring up a good point about West Village being a little isolated. That's probably partly why I didn't venture into West Village much when I lived in State Thomas. It just felt like a different neighborhood because of Lemon, Minyard's and Walgreens!

Well according to HEB they are in the design phase so it is not too far off and sometimes it's cheaper to maintain than having to dig up the foundation's and utilities and file paperwork to demo etc when you plan to start construction in a year or so.

Man! That still gets me a little heated. CVS didn’t give a complete and total effe about how they designed their store. It looks like it belongs in Frisco, not Uptown. Since it’s still pretty new, it’ll be there for a while. That’s the sad part...cowboyeagle05 wrote:Someone call CVS and tell them how much they suck again. HEB understood what they had the opportunity to do here. I would have preferred a firework stand over the BS CVS built. Congrats Central Market and KDC for understanding the value of the street-level interaction. This site does, in fact, connect the West Village and Uptown and a draw right at the street like this will encourage more people movement between the two areas. They could have easily just renovated the old building but they saw the potential for more. HEB has vision. Now if we can get Kroger in the gaybourhood to have the same vision.

The shape seems to suggest they only know that CityPlace Co plans to build something tall there and want it as a comparison to argue why their ask for taller isn't much of an ask. What Cityplace Co plans to build on their remaining parcels is much taller and something anyone who has been paying attention knows. It doesn't look like a specific design just a generic block design meant to show for scale next to their tower.

LOL. Even with the landscaping they chose, they made it so random with trees placed oddly, differing tree types, and no other vegetation other than grass they don't even properly take care of. Almost like they purposely did it as a middle finger to the neighborhood. I don't, and won't ever, shop in this CVS and I avoid CVS as much as possible due to how they treat our neighborhoods!
