which four office towers would that be? Hines, Capital, Lindbeck/Stream, and 5 Allen Center? Chevron of course is a go, and Hines latest article was saying they would build to spec and go ahead without a tenant if need be, with construction starting the beginning of 2014. as for the other 3, i agree its a battle of who will sign a tenant first, though Capital seems pretty confident and 5AC was mentioned in a recent article as having intentions of signing a tenant in the next year and getting off the ground a few years after. maybe Houston really is getting that many relocations though and all of these towers will be needed in the near future?

as for tearing down the Houston Club, its a shame, but the building is on extremely desirable land right in between the east-west rail lines, and just off of the Main Street line. the new Hines tower is about the only location better then that.
