The Edge in Houston: Midtown Mellow Nights

Alex Gonzalez — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 19:52:02 +0000

With its sleek, modern look, The Edge is a posh building that offers an easy-going, laid-back lifestyle. Fully equipped with outdoor grilling stations, a fitness center, an indoor theater and an entry security system, The Edge is sophistication meets utility. With the simple push of an elevator button, you are transported to the lobby, the doors leading you out into Midtown, the heart of Houston. For a wine night, you need look no further than Russo’s New York Pizzeria around the corner. With an elegant layout and a winery area, snuggle up on the couch and have a bottle of wine while dining on delicious authentic Italian antipasti or good, old-fashioned pizza. For a drink south of the border, head over to Cyclone Anaya‘s for a fishbowl margarita. It’s a good thing your home will be within walking distance, because these margaritas are made with Everclear! If wine and margaritas aren’t your thing, try Front Porch Pub across the street. Front Porch is a chill spot to have a few beers and watch the big game. With finger foods and burgers, Front Porch Pub is the perfect place to kick your feet up and relax. Christian’s Tailgate and Bar is another relaxing spot. From pool to darts to shuffleboard, Christian’s has plenty to do without being tired in the morning at work. If you’re craving a sweet treat, head over to Sweet Lola Yogurt Bar. With seasonal fat-free flavors and a one-of-a-kind topping bar, Sweet Lola’s will satisfy your sweet tooth guilt-free. Last but not least, to enjoy the beautiful summer sun, Midtown Park is just a block away. Lay a blanket out on the grass, take a cooler filled with food or drinks, and soak up some rays. The Edge is also within walking distance of Midtown Market and a CVS Pharmacy. Whether you need groceries or you’re simply craving a late-night snack, you can walk over to either one. From nightlife to necessities, The Edge has it all!

Four ways to Love Living the Luxurious Life

John Park — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 13:03:00 +0000

Houston has been made-over. After several years away, I’ve come back home to find a new and improved skyline- much of which was towering glass and gleaming metal. After a little research, I found that these magnificent structures provide the luxury lifestyle demanded by the changing demographic and more developments are on the way! To help sort the best from the rest, here are this week’s top four ways to love living the luxurious life. Royalton First up is the renown Royalton at 3333 Allen Parkway. Old World charm and refinement define the Royalton at River Oaks. Impeccable elegance, rich architectural detail, luxurious amenities and superior service can all be found here. 253 residences at Royalton with multiple one, two and three bedroom floor plans are designed to appeal to a variety of lifestyles. Whether you prefer flats, town homes or penthouse styles, all are available. Each residence features breathtaking views of the city, sumptuous gourmet kitchens, large master bedroom suites, private balconies and elegant designer finishes throughout. Endeavour Second up is the extravagant Endeavour at 4821 Nasa Parkway. The Endeavour Tower has magnificent views of Clear Lake from all rooms and spacious balconies. Known for its many amenities, some are: cabanas, resistance pool, screening room, sauna, courtesy boat dock, concierge, valet & controlled access. If the fact that there’s 26 units over 25 floors doesn’t get you to call us at 877-852-6636, you should know that you can also get 20% cash back on buyer’s commission! Sonoma Next up, we have the supreme Sonoma at 2401 Bolsover Street. It’s a wonderful feeling when you’re surrounded by compelling architecture, retail magic and coo condominiums. Live where days are measured by a world of stylish choices, compliments of the shops at Sonoma. Notable amenities include the retail shops, private parking, Koi pond, private theater, storage units, fire place and pit, fitness center, and a rooftop pool. Come laugh loud and live large at Sonoma Condominium at Rice University. Cosmopolitan Lastly, we have the uncompromising Cosmopolitan. You must see this absolutely stunning penthouse featuring huge entertaining areas, 3 bedrooms, a study, 4 full baths, penthouse separate parking, wood floors, 440 feet of balcony overlooking downtown and galleria. With 12ft floor to ceiling windows throughout, that right there is simply uncompromising luxury.

An Interview with Highland Tower

J. C. Toledo — Wed, 11 May 2011 17:38:56 +0000

Highland Tower, located minutes from the Galleria at 2207 Bancroft, is an emerging star among Houston high-rises. The thoughtful, impeccable construction and design of the residence is obvious through the beautiful interiors and unsurpassable views of Houston through floor-to-ceiling glass windows. “Imagine living each day as you would on a vacation at a five star resort,” states the website. “The luxury, the convenience, the services, the finishes, the feel, the pool, the excitement. Imagine a life with no boundaries and less commuting. Imagine your home completely secure; being able to leave town or extend a trip with no worries about your residence. This is Highland Tower, high rise lifestyle at its finest.” The all-star team behind Highland Tower lends the building instant class and clout. It was developed by Pelican, a team responsible for (among others) the The Woodway, The Greenway I and II, Woodway Place II and 5000 Montrose at the Museum. It was designed by Ziegler Cooper, a firm that has received over 30 design awards in the last 10 years. The firm Kudela & Weinheimer is responsible for the visionary landscape architecture that surrounds Highland Tower. Highland Tower opened for residency in mid-2010. Since then, luxury-seeking Houston residents have taken up in Highland Tower, enjoying close proximity to the high-end shopping, dining and lifestyle available to those who live in the Galleria area. Vickie Ramsey of the Highland Tower leasing office comments on the way that the high-rise building has won over the hearts of its residents. “They love our location,” she says, “and the fact that it has such a boutique hotel feel.” Who lives in Highland Tower? “A great mix,” Vickie says. “Empty nesters, young professionals, single people, couples, a few international buyers. It’s a very active community.” There are 15 floors and 93 residences, with a wide selection of floor plans to accommodate any type of lifestyle. Amenities at Highland Tower are some of the best in the city. On the fifth-floor Terrace Level (“worthy of a private club,” states the website), you’ll find an infinity pool with a view of the Galleria, a resistance pool for fitness lovers and a covered pool-side pavilion. Vickie extols the virtues of the pavilion’s “kitchen, flat-screen TVs, full sound system, fireplaces, tables and chairs,” also mentioning the “fabulous water wall” that gives a tranquil background noise to anyone relaxing on the terrace. “You feel like you’re at a resort when you’re here,” she says. The fifth floor also boasts fountains, a fitness center overlooking the pool, a dining room, a private party lounge, and a private massage therapy room. “It’s 17,000 square feet of green space,” says Vickie: quite a find, in the middle of metro Houston! Residences from 1-bed/1-bath to 3-bed/3-bath/study are available, square footage from 825 to 2754, prices ranging from $289,000 to $1,300,000. Since the tower is new, there are plenty of occupancies in the building, so if this unbeatable luxury sounds like a good fit for you, check out the listing at CondoDomain!

The Uptown Galleria Area

Anthony Longo — Sat, 09 May 2009 12:46:19 +0000

The area near the Houston Galleria is an upscale community with many choices in luxury homes. It’s a prime spot for building. Located in Houston’s Uptown district, the Galleria area is home to many fine restaurants and shops, as well as nearly a quarter of Houston’s Class A office space. Houston’s uptown condos are in a great area for combining living and working. Because it is the 17th largest business district in the United States,it’s easy to get to work, and come home – and do plenty of shopping along the way. On the Boulevard, The Cosmopolitan and Lofts on Post Oak offer sophisticated, chic, ultimate high end living in a stunning metropolitan area. The Briarglen, on Briarglen drive, also features luxurious contemporary homes in this exciting neighborhood. Highland Tower on Bancroft Lane is still under construction, but pre-sales have be going well and the building is expected to be completed in 2010. At the Highland Tower, a limitation on the number of investors has been put in place, with a condition that a unit cannot be resold within the first year the building is open, unless the entire development sells out. Also, buyers cannot “flip” by assigning their contract to another person. Call me to tour these Uptown Houston condos today.
