  1. At the end of the year, Magnol acquired the property at 1132 E 11th St. It's possible the French bakery may offer parking for its customer on the property. https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/topic/53342-1132-e-11th-st/?do=findComment&comment=698828
  2. 1132 E 11th St was sold in December. According to records submitted to the county clerk's office, the proprietor of Magnol / Magnol French Baking acquired the property. As discussed in another topic, Magnol owns the former Andy's Home Cafe property at 1115 E 11th St. The property was purchased last summer. It's possible 1132 E 11th St will be utilized for the bakery's parking.

  6. First of all, I agreed with your previous post. Second of all, I touched on a few complaints from some who've visited the forum. Some of those issues voiced have either deterred some from returning to the site or staying on the site longer out of frustration, per their own words. I've come across these complaints on Houston Reddit site, various Facebook groups, Nextdoor, and other online communities and apps. But all of this is off topic, which I'm guilty of doing so. Perhaps we should stay on topic. A post above mentions this site is on the market. Does anyone have further details?
  7. The 12,096-square-foot parcel at 1132 E 11th St sits on approximately 0.27 acres. The parcel consists of two lots. I'm uncertain where in the Greater Heights 1132 E 11th St is located. It may be in the Norhill neighborhood. Please correct me if I'm wrong. On the property is a 1,180 sf building. According to HCAD records, the building was constructed in 1950. Adjacent to 1132 E 11th St is 1050 Studewood St, where pizza restaurant The Gyspy Poet is located. Hogg Middle School is across the street at 1100 Merrill St. Also across the street from this property is Bicycle Speed Shop at 1123 E 11th St and a commercial building at 1125 E 11th St.
  8. I noticed a few weeks ago, King Cole Liquor is open again. Does anyone know if this strip center has a name?

  16. A site plan for M-K-T is included in a recent marketing brochure for a nearby building. It's from leasing materials for The Swift Bldg. Located at 621 Waverly St, the building is a Triten Real Estate Partner redevelopment project. Based on the site plan, it appears some of the spaces previously available have been leased (or in leasing negotiations). It's also possible this may an outdated plan: Building 1 Squeeze Massage Rowan Sanna / Sanna baby and child A retailer I can't make out that's next to Sanna A retailer I can't make out that's next to Cariloha Building 4 Vuori Birddogs Made-In Good Vet Paper Source The image also shows plans for a future connecting pedestrian path.

  19. You and I both know who that someone is. We've talked about him in private messages about his constant need to edit and move everyone's topics when it's not needed. It's the same someone whose vision of the Katy Freeway also includes the Brasewood and Meyerland areas. That person moves topics about Braeswood and Meyerland to the subforum for places along the Katy Freeway. And when you go to another moderator about it, they'll correct it. But as sure as Houston has long humid summers, that person moves it back a few weeks or months later. He does the same thing with topic titles. The one positive thing I can say is at least that person stopped putting topics about Fifth Ward and Near Northside in the Downtown subforum (I'm talking about after those forums were established in 2018 or 2019.) So, there's that. 🤷🏿‍♂️
  20. My exact sentiments. Oak Forest, Garden Oaks, Independence Heights, and the rest of the nearby neighborhoods that's north of 610 have a lot of development going on. And development aside, there are lots of existing buildings in those areas that should have a subforum devoted to it. It's strange there is no subforum for that area after so many years. Nor are there ones for the Meyerland and a few others. Even stranger, suburbs are grouped with other neighborhood in Houston proper. Previously, there were forums for each of the suburbs. They were group together like The Woodlands/ Spring/Tomball/Conore area, Friendswood/League City/Webster/Texas City, and so forth. Within those subforums, were other subforums for each of the cities like one for The Woodlands, one for Spring, and so on. Now, they are all mixed in together with neighborhoods in Houston. Like Points North includes Houston's northern neighborhoods plus The Woodlands, Spring, and so on. Ultimately, this lack of much needed subforums a disorganization makes it hard to find things specific to certain areas when they're all lumped together. I understand when visitors to the site say it's hard to navigate or not user friendly due to the changes made a few years back (when Editor got rid of the suburb subforums), not to mention the search not working that well.
