  1. Little or no thought was put into the whole damn thing! Though in other news, the beige property a few houses down (right behind the new fountain / stream) is coming along nicely.
  2. So I did a "driving tour" of the PTC yesterday evening... Wow, I must say, they did a fantastic job! I was expecting some run of the mill strip with a few trees and whatnot, but instead found a well organized, nicely decorated, classy, shopping locale. In a world of endless chain retailers, this is as good as it gets. It'll definitely put Pearland on the map! With regard to traffic, it seems getting out the PTC, across 288, is the only real problem. They need to add an extra lane that way...
  3. Wonder how much tax revenue this will pull in... Anyways, wheresoever there is growth, there is traffic.
  4. Wow, fantastic post! While I'm disappointed in their decision to build a toll road, at least it'll get some people off the free highway. Also, I imagine buses will use the toll as some sort of psuedo-HOV lane...
  5. Hmm, I wonder why residents on MLK, Cullen, and Scott haven't moved to Bellaire or West University. After all, MLK, Cullen, and Scott pretty much flow freely into those neighborhoods. And why haven't the lower income neighborhoods bordering I45N expanded westward into the Heights? And why hasn't the Galleria become an extension of the Third Ward - isn't it just minutes away? Please stop with the "OH NO, PEOPLE WILL BE ATTRACTED TO PEARLAND" nonsense. Every successful area / city in Houston is surrounded by lower income neighborhoods, that's just how it is in a metropolis.
  6. Exactly! Pesky developers. Why couldn't they just leave the place a barren flood-zone...
  7. Hmm, maybe this is what will happen at the Waterlights park... People will erupt into arguments over executive authority and presidential legacies!
  8. Nice job finding the site plan, Timnwendy! Definietly looks like that July 08' date might get pushed back. It'll be interesting to have a mall 1 minute from the house...
  9. the restaurant poll is an interesting way of doing business... def. a plus!
  10. Though crowded and moderately priced, the new HEB has an amazing selection, far better than Supertarget and/or Kroger. I especially like the organic/specialty products - glad to see such high quality products in a local store.
  11. Yea, you were right, it was just a pre-opening party. It WILL open on Nov 7., 6am to 12pm (midnight).
  12. CONTRARY to what the big freaking sign on the store says (OPENING NOV. 7), the store has apparently opened tonight. I just drove by, and there's an absolutely massive crowd. EDIT: Nevermind. It will open on Nov. 7.
  13. It's at the intersection of 288 and 518. It'll be on the right hand side of 288 if you're traveling southbound, left if you're traveling northbound. Here's a map (centered on its present location): http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&...c=addr&om=1
  14. The MASSIVE Pearland HEB Plus will be opening on Nov. 7. The 145,000 sq. foot megastore is the first of its kind for the Greater Houston area. Here's the information sheet: Sounds like one hell of a store...
