Mickey Leland Federal Building At 1919 Smith St.
Andrew Broadfoot replied to lockmat's topic in Downtown
About to move so I figured I would go ahead and grab a few shots while I still have the vantage point. -
A while back the city took the Larson hangar back to presumably level it for additional safety area by 12r but I agree, they would need to reconstruct both runways with adequate separation but wouldn't work unless they we're able to buy some adjacent property up and possibly move a road or two. They had also proposed adding an additional 1000ft to 17/35 but who knows. Every once and a while WN will take 17/35 but only if the wind is out of the north and at a good clip. CO used to use it to land and takeoff their 735's now and then for mx.

Gotcha -
Camden McGowen Station & Midtown Park At 2727 Travis St.
Andrew Broadfoot replied to Subdude's topic in Midtown
and what would that be? -
I agree both airports have the ability to add capacity for the foreseeable future. Down at HOU I would be interested in seeing if they could some how have two 7,600ft 12's where they can launch and receive simultaneously. Albeit, most airlines like to land 04 for that easy off to the terminal.

I like both Cali and Les. It just boils down to what gate I go out of for lunch. -
Perhaps the earth is flat?

Interfaith Ministries For Greater Houston At 3303 Main St.

They could build enough shelters to get all of them off the street but the problem is most shelters won't take them in if they are on drugs or drink so they stay on the streets. if people want to tackle the homeless problem they are going to have to approach it from a different angle. In this case shelters won't work. -

What's Left Of The Fourth Ward Near Taft St. & W. Grey St.
Andrew Broadfoot replied to Chi-Char-Hou-Dal's topic in Midtown
I agree that there is a percentage that mirrors those claims as I have driven around there looking at lots. Albeit, they really stand out now as development is starting to buy in. -
So this was around that little neighborhood back there? Freeman's Town?

Lived in midtown for a while now. Like any other area, you just have to have your street smarts with you.

Wasn't this where the baggage claim before the last baggage claim was?
-
Competition is always nice. However, even if this didn't happen I would still fly by the same philosophy. Pick the airline that makes the most sense (for me) logistically and financially. I happen to live downtown so I try to fly out of hobby first and if I can't find a flight there then IAH is next in line.

Well said!

I heard this from two different UA employes today.

I've seen both the 767-200 and -300 at Hobby. The -300 parked on the hardstand by Atlantic to take on fuel. -200 parked at Wilson Air. As for gates, I don't think there is enough room with the current configuration.Oh yeah, I've also seen a C-17 there as well.

I just hope they leave the facade the way it is. Maybe pressure wash it.

Texaco Building (now The Star) At 1111 Rusk Street
Andrew Broadfoot replied to editor's topic in Downtown
My girlfriend and I looked at 1 bedroom floor plans at One Park Place and the prices started at $2500.00 month and up. -
I can tell you truthfully I have only lived in downtown for a few years. I lived in between the garden district and downtown New Orleans in the early 90's so I guess I can say I was already accustom to panhandlers and bums (even on the nice street I was on). When I moved back to Houston in the mid 90's I spent a lot of time in Midtown and Downtown and I can attest that it has cleaned up nicely since then. Personally, the only place I would even consider staying away from in Houston (even during the day and on foot) would be the Greyhound bus station. I also frequent NYC and am used to being on foot most of the time as I usually take the subway the whole time. Since 2000, there has been quite a revitalization in Midtown/Downtown. A lot of people have moved in and the place is getting better all the time. As far as future residents, It will have to model towards singles and couples that don't have children as well as people moving from other major metropolitan areas. So... For the people that are scared of Downtown, be scared, less of a wait for me at dinner time!
