  1. Aparently it is no longer the PERFECT place. Aparently it is no longer the PERFECT place for an amusement park
  2. I am probably just being impatient, but will they be repaving that stretch of Sawyer/Taylor in front of the new Urban Target?
  3. Great pic. I think i see Dream in there...AND DREAM is getting hit on by a HOMOSEXUAL!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!
  4. I dont know if it is for sure, but this is what 24 Hr Fitness employees are telling prospective members. I dont know if it is for sure, but this is what 24 Hr Fitness employees are telling prospective members.
  5. I hear 24 Hr Fitness is planning a location in this new Target complex
  6. WOW Now everyone start figuring out how this will place Houston up against the nations other 80+ story towers. And dont forget being built on former Amusement Park land...that will surely count for something as well in the rankings! This may make Houston the 3rd largest town in the nation!!!!
  7. Thanks for getting the word out on this! Your thoughtfulness is very much appreciated.
  8. These are like that little train at IAH. Just an absolute joy to ride. So fun and funky!
  9. Another location will REALLY thrust Houston out into the national spotlight! Are y'all ready for the big time?!
  10. Although your post and pic is funny, it is a bit of a stretch from what I have posted. There are big cities where -in general- the locals are friendly, and service is not full of attitude. And there are MANY places where drivers -in general- are much better and adhere to more norms that result in better traffic flow and a better overall experience on the freeway. I am not holding Houston to impossible standards. But so long as people who "seem" to be so up in arms over my posts dont take a deep breath and a moment to realize that Houston has room for improvement, Houston will never see that improvement. I have lived in many places, and leave Houston and Texas on a regular basis. I certainly do not have my finger on the hearbeat of all big cities in America nor pretend to be an expert by any means but I do have some room to talk. BTW redscare...if the railroad is so important to the city of Houston...why not a better infrastructure to support such an important part of the city?
  11. What was a nice try? The singing cowboy in his underwear is not "ghetto" Part of the point, but once it becomes where the locals do not frequent the establishments whatsoever, they cannot stay in business. Tourism alone in Houston will not support establishments of this nature.
  12. I never said that there was a HOB in time square. HOB, ESPN zone, Nike Store...etc, all of these types of stores,venues are great at first. Over time they end up being only tourist destinations and otherwise ghetto clientele. If you have been to Time Square you MAY know what I mean, or other cities with such establishments. How many locals frequent Hard Rock Cafe here in Houston? But if you want to read more dastardly inuendos into my post you may not be able to recognize this. In response to redscare...Houston is in my opinion much better than life in the Garden State. Unforunately, Houston is a bit similar in some respects to life in Northern NJ...crazy drivers-but in NJ it is not personal on the road whereas in Houston it can be a blow to ones ego to have someone pass them. Most service oriented establishments TEND to have a very low class workforce. This sadly tends to be the case in Much of the Eastern and southern U.S....not JUST Houston or NJ. The general population in both Houston and NJ tend to be a bit surly and have a bit of a tude. Both also react with great hostility to ANY critique/comment that they deem negative about where they live.
  13. Someone, please explain to me what is so darn special about Houston getting a HOB? It's a touristy kind of thing that brings ghetto people. Anyone been to Time Square?
  14. WOOHOO!!!! Never again will I have to make my way to that San Feilpe location!!! Which is a great store by the way as there are ALWAYS tons of register lines open, but ghetting there...
  15. Lets get on this one!!! Trader Joe's would be frickin' awesome
