I thought had gone up too. They were $13 at TX Children's - thought they went to $15, but maybe they came back down? I know if you are admitted there and have multiple day stays - there are organizations that will help with the parking fees.

Nothing happing on the Vida Mariscos site. But there is groundwork on another site. Didn't see any sign going up yet.

But on the positive side, a new dental office opened in the newly constructed strip center between it and the gas station on the corner at 36. Speaking of the gas station on the corner, the empty section that used to be Whataburger years ago has a sign on it for The Boudin Company restaurant. We'll see if that one makes it.

Good news that the First Choice ER building might be getting used. You said it closed before the pandemic. I'm not sure that it ever actually opened up. The old Brewingz store next door that had a sign being converted to a Korean BBQ. Still says that, still has the dumpster out front, but nothing has been done in six months. The IHOP is still open. That was supposed to be the location of the Raising Cane's originally. They have been teasing us with that restaurant coming for years - so not going to hold my breath.

This would be a welcome upgrade if anything remotely like this comes to pass. Right now that view of Commercial Drive looks nothing like that. You would be hard pressed to notice that Commercial Drive is an actual road through there as opposed to a bit wider lane in a parking lot. And actual greenery? Sidewalks with people walking on it? What is this world coming to?

I think when the Forbidden Gardens off Franz Road in Katy closed a while back due to Grand Parkway expansion, this place bought up their terra-cotta warrior re-creations and maybe other pieces.

I dunno. I have always heard that a lot of very wealthy people fly in to Houston expressly for being treated at TMC. And I imagine some of their stays are for a while - with families. Seems like a market that could support a luxury high-rise hotel/short term apartments type building. 🤷♂️

Don't hold your breath ground breaking for the proposed Town Square above anytime soon. The old Sears Auto Center demo is wrapping up. They dug a huge hole and back-filled - maybe some old fuel tanks or something to be remediated. This week they are putting the final touches on more asphalt parking lot and taking down the construction fence. They paved a pair of Die-Hards and put up a parking lot.

That would definitely be a better location for a restaurant than where the old Los Cucos was. That is one of those restaurant sites that has been thru so many different places and none have stuck.

Angleton - Harris Reservoir Expansion Project
Pleak replied to ChannelTwoNews's topic in Points South
Remember fishing in Harris Reservoir as a teenager. Wonder if this will help Holiday Lakes from flooding every time some one turns on their windshield wipers. Interesting - the picture looks like the same size roughly as Harris Reservoir - but the text says it will have twice the water as Harris and Brazoria Reservoir combined. Guess it will be a lot deeper.- 3 replies

I did not realize about 63 locations were still open. Looks like about 1/2 will close. That was a staple growing up - (actually Wyatt's was before Luby's bought them) - but it's been years since I have been. The fried cod with a strawberry shortcake dessert. Something about that liquid red sugar. Yum!

CEC Give up Plastic Bags July 3---go green challenge
Pleak replied to trymahjong's topic in Community Announcements
As does Kroger. If they have them in stock. It's hit or miss. -
That hobby must have been bigger than I thought. I think there is/was an RC race track up on 59N somewhere. Remember seeing it when we would go to East Texas. Also on Chimney Rock there was one right north of Bissonnet.
