Historic Houston
Places that have survived the city's "progress" and those that are only memories. Plus places that go bump in the night.

Hanover Autry Park: Mixed-Use At Allen Parkway & W. Dallas St.
In my opinion, part of the reason is because nobody knows they're there. So many good businesses in Houston think posting on social media is the same thing as advertising. It isn't. Social media should supplement a business' advertising. Especially at this location where there is zero street visibility. I can't count the number of businesses I would have loved to support in Houston that I only learned about after they closed. McDonald's and Coca Cola didn't become huge successes because they were afraid to advertise. -

Hanover Autry Park: Mixed-Use At Allen Parkway & W. Dallas St.
Walked around Autry Park Saturday Evening. The weather was perfect..yet, the park and place was a ghost town. MF Lobster was empty. The boot store, which was an odd choice to begin with, was vacated. The clothing store has a sign "Appointments Only" so they don't even have set hours any more. What is that Urban concepts cannot work in Houston? I thought Autry Park had a much better shot than Regent Square but I guess not. Is it the retail/restaurant selection? Would a popular coffee shop or a pizza parlor create more urban synergy than a $100 a plate restaurant? I still have hope that Autry Park + Regent Square will tun into an urban neighborhood. Mexican Sugar appears to be a good choice for RS IF it is a Pappasitos/Lupe Tortilla priced type of restaurant and NOT a Hugos priced type of restaurant. Both developments feature an Ice Cream spot and for Regent Square, the Flight Club is still a success. What does these developments need to do the create Urban Synergy...are Houstonians really that anti-urban?- 1

NRG Park Mixed-Use Development
Correction. Soldier Field WAS historic. Then the idiots in Chicago destroyed whatever history it had with a disastrous "renovation" that fixed none of its actual issues. Arrowhead is probably the only other stadium other than Lambeau and the Superdome I'd consider historic, but it also needs the most work (the other two have had major renovations), and if its not getting any work done, the Chiefs will have no problem moving a few miles to the other side of the state line.- texas medical center
