IronTiger Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hey, just noticed on Google Earth there seems to be ground-clearing and dirt work at the old Southbend subdivision, condemned and abandoned in the early 1990s. I can't find any news on further cleanup (or possible development), anyone have more info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

towerjunkie Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Well, the satellite images show streets being laid down so I guess its more housing for the Ashley Pointe subdivision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTiger Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 What's an address? Near Astoria and Beamer, Friendswood, TX Well, the satellite images show streets being laid down so I guess its more housing for the Ashley Pointe subdivision They don't, it's just a lot of dirt work where there used to be trees and abandoned right of ways where there used to be roads. Either you're confusing 20+ year plus abandoned roads as new clear-cuts or you're looking at the wrong place altogether, probably the latter.

towerjunkie Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I'm well aware of the location of the old South Bend Subdivision This is imagery from 2012... This is google imagery from 2016 I'm pretty sure those are new streets in the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erin S Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Yes!! They are building more Ashley Pointe homes out there. I was out there today and new homes have been built close to or on the old Southbend site. I can't believe they are building there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaE Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Whoa. That's hard to believe, that they could even think about building houses there, again. But, I see the new streets. Such a sad history, Southbend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
