Kudos Houston First.  Went to Biggio's on he second floor patio we met people from Nashville.  They said everything was beautiful.  They loved the pool at the Marriott.  So we took them to Ninfas!  We had so much fun!    

I've seen movies that start like that... it sounds like fun!

Yay!

That's 347 ppl a day moving to our region! :-) :-)

I was reading the news and came across this article. Turns out Sugar Land has named one of their park "Memorial Park". I guess they are trying to benefit from the confusion between this one and the real on in Houston. Ugh.

Ugh.

looks nice

So that's what this is going to be? A parking garage? What happened to all the developments???

Get real. Have you overheard any of the discussions our officials have regarding road construction?

The idea of making a non-tolled road is not even remotely on the table. 

 

IMO they all need to be replaced with their kind of thinking.

I'm EFFIN surprised they havent started tolling RESIDENTIAL streets yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"well... there just isnt money in our 4.17 billion dollar budget so... lets start tolling residential streets.... "

Because the citizens of the great state of Texas hate taxes. Even when they are for something as useful as a freeway.

Our schools have failed us.

Walked around there Saturday after a photoshoot and man I am so loving the GRB in person! They did such a great job with the Avenida Houston...its so great to see the ground floor being put to GREAT use with so many food options and just a nicer enhanced exterior...from the outdoor seating to the amazing fountain sculpture to the landscaping...just beautiful! The restaurants are really coming along with Grotto open for business, the Deli had staff training and looks ready to open this week, while Pappadeaux was working furiously to finish and you can tell they know what they are doing to make that happen by Super Bowl... 

and it also has this, which maybe i missed written about somewhere...but i did not get to see this area:

as much as i LOVED everything about GRB...there was one slight disappointment...

I am just not much of a fan of the Bird and Cloud sculpture...I want to be and wish i was...i'm just not...it's not ugly and i don't hate it...I just don't understand it haha...even in person it looks like a giant mess of mesh...i LOVE art and THINK i have pretty good taste and this just doesn't inspire me or make me think wow that's amazing or even interesting... it just made me think wow they really were desperate to fill up such a big empty space that needed something...

and for a million dollars you would think i wouldn't feel that way...but maybe that is just me.. 

I agree. I think first graders could have come up with something more interesting and meaningful. But that's just my two cents.

Is this still on?

Well that's because republicans are mostly racist. We all know that.

So...food deserts are indeed a contrived fad?

Blue October, Solange, Gary Clark Jr, and Wild Mocassins? Well done SB crew

I love your sarcasm.

THis sounds like good news.

Anyone have pics/info for the twisty tower over near Herman Park?

UGH

More toll roads??? Why can we not put an end to this madness?

Convince the Legislature to raise taxes so there's non toll sources to pay the construction costs.

Why not just have the county (or whoever is responsible for roads) to balance their books and plan and budget for them????? 

Isnt THAT a novel idea....

How can we stop this addition of toll lanes???? WE DONT WANT ANY MORE TOLL EFFIN ROADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have the scum returned? I mean... it seems they always come back... How can we eliminate them?

So this is still happening then... good news.

Frank's will have a never ending line out the door once this is finished.

Why? Their pizza is repulsive.

Ehhh...

I was thinking "barf" but ok.
