Purdue- Your typed words make me feel so old but your link makes me feel "Forever Young!" Sorry, had to be done. What a great time to be 16 in Houston. Cruising lower Westheimer..., sneaking in to clubs like Red Square, Power Tools, NRG, and Numbers... Shopping for cassettes at Sound Warehouse, Record Rack, and Cactus... and all while wigging on your friend's mother's E!
Well, today was the day they demolished the Ben Milam Hotel. Fairly light turnout compared to some other demolitions, but it didn't seem to have as high a profile. Kind of a shame they couldn't make some use of it, it only takes up about an eighth of the site.
Here is the video I took.
Before. What is left of the sign on the north corner.
Looking down Preston St. afterwards.
