I like that Uptown Houston will fill in a little more and that it'll have a building taller than the William's tower. Can't wait for the new W too...that'll be fun!

Bobby Harris - I know, in the original OP's post, Houston's Hess Tower has wind turbines at the top of it. I don't know if they're functioning or not.

That's cool....I like Bobby Harris's rain recapture idea. IDK if the technology to filter rain water would be worth it though...
