I don't know about that neighborhood, but that is the problem with Houston. It has no zoning, so developers can pretty much build what they want wherever they want. I lived there for a few years when I was in my 20's. I lived in an apartment and there was a wooden fence separating the apartment parking lot from half a million dollar houses with pools. That was 45 years ago, so that was a lot of money for a house back then.

DeBartolo Development is wrapping up its residential reboot of 1801 Smith, now branded the Elev8 luxury apartments.

In its new use, the 1971 building – previously known as 600 Jefferson – features 372 swank units with downtown views, the amenities expected in high-end apartment living, and direct connection to the pedestrian sky bridge system of other Cullen Center buildings — and beyond. more: https://realtynewsreport.com/downtown-office-tower-converted-to-luxe-living/ via hindesky via hindesky back when conversion work started —

February 22, 20241 yr I really like Houston. Great food, underrated housing stock, and high quality cultural amenities on par with older east coast/midwest cities. I lived in Austin for 3 years but always preferred Houston. If they could just move it out of the bayou….
