    I am sharing this video/concept with neighbors in Museum Park an idea of what might be done to slow traffic near the Museums along Binz. Thank you for sharing @samagon.

    As I recall, the Montrose bridge was originally going to be demolished and rebuilt, but the route was tweaked ever-so-slightly to avoid that.

    No word on whether Rosemary’s Baby will get involved.

    The bike lanes I’m aware of are part of a plan from the City of Houston: https://www.letstalkhouston.org/third-ward-bikeways

    Blodgett is supposed to be getting bike lanes, although that is a bit further south.

    Cleburne is not included in TXDOT’s current plans. I do not think it will end up being included. The City of Houston’s MOU contains language that “TXDOT remains committed to evaluating the feasibility” of extending Cleburne across I-69, among a number of endeavours: https://www.houstontx.gov/planning/nhhip/docs_pdfs/NHHIP-TxDOT-COH-MOU-Executed-English.pdf (see (e)(iii)(3) on pg. 12 of the attached) That’s very nice lawyerese to say something nice without any binding commitment to it.

    My understanding is that TXDOT is paying for the construction of the deck over the freeway. Landscaping, other items would need to be funded separately, but the deck is the big-ticket expense. Edit: Page 5 of the Record of Decision references the cap construction: “The Selected Alternative provides a structural “cap” over the proposed depressed lanes of I‐45 and US 59/I‐69 from approximately Commerce Street to Lamar Street. There would also be a structural cap over the depressed lanes of US 59/I‐69 between approximately Main Street and Fannin Street, and in the area of the Caroline Street/Wheeler Street intersection. Future use of the structural cap areas for another purpose would require additional development and funding by entities other than TxDOT.” http://www.ih45northandmore.com/docs14/NHHIP_RecordofDecision/NHHIP Record of Decision - Body.pdf

    Let’s revisit this. It’s monument time.

    Look at what that hoe did:

    Who’s a hoe? Hoe!

    Sounds like a better use of the golf course space to me.

    Looks like a clone of those apartments that just went up on the east side of 288.

    69 units. Nice.

    That seems……feasible for this site.

    There was a deed to the Harris County Flood Control District for about 8,000 square feet of land in May 2022 (after the prior plat), so I’m betting this replat reflects that.

    Have you seen Paris Hilton lately? Her plastic surgeon is Michelangelo with a scalpel. That’s a medical artist.

    I saw concrete trucks and utility workers on Hermann Drive out front of this site today. Gosh knows Hermann Drive could use some smoothing out in that area. I’m not sure if it would be associated with Related’s project in some way.

    Hence, the 🤔 emoji.

    I got this shot of the site the other evening:

    I was actually intending to point out how much better the Astros are. 😆 Since, 2014, we’ve had three AL pennants, 1 World Series win, and three going on four 100 win seasons.

    I feel like this concept was worth taking another look at it, almost 8 years later….

    Texas Medical Center's new biomanufacturing center to bring 100,000 jobs to Houston https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/article/Texas-Medical-Center-planning-to-build-500-acre-17457273.php “The TMC BioPort campus would be located on a piece of land near the intersection of Buffalo Speedway and Holmes Road, just west of Wildcat Golf Club, just a few miles southwest of the medical center’s main campus. The medical center is under contract to buy the land, which is currently held by multiple owners, McKeon said. He declined to identify the owners or discuss the potential sale price while negotiations are ongoing.”

    It takes decades for trees to grow but a rerouted sidewalk can be done in a weekend.

    That’s curious. She was lured in by the Deccan Development guys and sued them. My best guess would be that her attorneys have kept in touch post-foreclosure. She would only be able to recoup maybe 50 cents on the dollar from selling the raw land, so there could be an incentive to see if the Deccan guys can actually make this happen.
