Agreed. I can't imagine anywhere near the problems because Greyhound is a (small) part of the equation.- 1

2023 Houston Mayoral Election Megathread
I think everyone is way off base about all of this. I think if we want to understand what the next few years of Houston politics will look like, then we should look to Los Angeles. The new ballot initiative that allows city council members to place items on the agenda is going to make city council positions much more political and higher visibility. And as Houston becomes increasingly Latino, there’s going to be a lot of anxiety about representation, particularly for African-Americans. If you look at Los Angeles, there has been a lot of recent tension, anxiety and racism about representation on city Council. We’re already seeing shades of this with the most recent elections for court of commissioners at the county. In general, I think we should look to larger trends in similar cities. As a native Austinite, I remember when we had our city council reform. City Council and city councilman went from being generally anonymous to mini celebrities. I believe some combination of Los Angeles-style tension, and Austin-style attention seeking will be the future of Houston politics.- john whitmire

George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH)
Yikes. I just noticed the border lines between the two countries is dotted on Google Maps. There's a chance that the Dynamo will play a game in Suriname next February, so maybe that'll satisfy my hunger for checking out a lesser-known northern coast of SA country. -

I would also say that the issues around the Greyhound station in Midtown was not just because of Greyhound. It was also because of the Pierce Elevated, the gas station that continues to change hands every few months/years, and St Josephs Hospital. I am sure some activity will increase around Magnolia TC, but I don't see what is happening in Midtown follow to East End. Of course time will tell, but I do hope that Greyhound is a good neighbor and responds to the community concerns by hiring more security.- 1
