    Threw this into the Restaurant thread, but Apple Maps has it as "The Boiling Point by Chuck and Dave's". They appear to be a seafood wholesaler so I think it's going to be a boiled seafood setup?

    I think there were two different concepts. Blue Line is something coming from Agricole, but they just have a lease IIRC. Behind it was a different plot of land that was supposed to be Benny Thunders (they have an IG account) that was going to be live music and self-serve taps.

    Apple Maps shows it as "The Boiling Point by Chuck and Dave's". Chuck and Dave's seems to be a wholesaler of seafood so I'm expecting Boil House 2.0.

    Story I heard was a couple one block over bought it (along with the two houses) with plans to renovate the craftsman on the corner, sell off the white bungalow to the east, and make the print shop into a wood working shop (his hobby).

    They did indeed. They were super convenient but stopped being a Volvo dealer a few months ago (though still pitch themselves as an independent Volvo repair shop). I wonder if this is because they never really updated the look. Used to be very 1970's Volvo chic inside and any newer Volvo dealership (West Side comes to mind) is like walking into the Minority Report. Curious to see what Grubbs does with Western Brick!

    As a resident of Harvard Street I think a 7 foot erect penis would be great for the neighborhood. But why stop at seven feet? Make it large enough that you could see it from a block away. "Meet me at the cock for drinks tonight". Have it light up at night, maybe it could grow and shrink with the temperature? Seriously, the parts of White Oak that weren't entertainment the last twenty years were light industrial. There still is a print shop. Coltivare was a vacant building. This zoning nonsense and HEB blaming is unreal. If this city had zoning, what exactly do you think White Oak properties would be zoned as?

    Dang, I looked into the Dian St Hate Gate and wow: https://www.houstonpress.com/news/a-neighborhood-divided-6570721

    If they decommissioned the Winter Street line, it seems like they would need to double track from the train station, under UHD, across White Oak and by the jail. Seems like a lot of work, no?

    Related, I love/hate how Google Maps takes the MKT Trail and interprets it as "Market Trail". Same how sometimes "West Road" becomes "W Rd". Robots aren't beating that CAPTCHA soon.

    I think that's exactly what they plan on doing. "New 244 car automated garage being built" http://www.loopnet.com/Listing/2805-White-Oak-Dr-Houston-TX/11627429/ This will be interesting to see.

    I heard that it's going to be a giant Bucee's once Prop One passes.

    I thought they did a really nice job fixing this up. Imagine living there when trains were going by!

    Someone on 311 keeps trying to get the city to care about Revival, Coltivare, Gelazzi, etc. It's pretty amusing when they don't. Highly recommend that app for amusement alone.
