Group LSR, aka InnerLoopCondos.com, wants to build a new condo building in Montrose — and you get to play the stylist! What should the new development look like? Entry-arches-gone-crazy Apartment Romanesque? Inigo Jones’s Last Stand at the Alamo? Shangri-La Festival Palace Moderne? Mountainside Office Park Tinted-Glass Tech? Or something a little more home-ly, like that building with the curvy hairdos they’ve done a couple of versions of already?
Yeah, it’s kinda hard to choose, but don’t sweat it — you can vote for as many of the six choices (shown above) as you want! They’re all pictured (and yes, they’re the only options) in an online questionnaire sent out by the company earlier this month, apparently meant to gauge consumer interest in a development the company is planning on the 800 block of West Alabama, near Audubon Place. Yes, that includes the site of the recently shuttered Bistro Vino. As a commenter to our earlier story deduced, Group LSR is the mysterious “unnamed residential developer.”
The survey sez:
Our decision to develop this project will greatly depend upon the feedback we receive from Houston condominium buyers regarding the location. . . .
If you were in the market to purchase, please indicate what type of architecture would you prefer in your next condominium home?
Your theme choices matter!

I pick the one with the mountain in the background. Houston is too flat!
Lower right. I like George and Jane Jetson’s apartment!
“None of the above”
I agree with littlehands…If they put the mountain in that’d kickass…then maybe they wouldn’t need the indoor ski arena…
I like the top right one.
I agree with Tex – NONE! These designs are atrocious, not to mention out of scale in contrast to the piece of land in question. The last thing Montrose needs are more poorly designed and built condos — especially from the kings of the tin can condos.
I am thinking about buying a place, but I would want to buy something that doesn’t look like a giant apartment complex. So none of the above
Love the title of your piece – that pretty well sums things up ;-)
