  1. I just wish we could have both. Like maybe more down-to-earth lunch specials for lunch and high-end at night?
  2. Hoping this restaurant will be more of a cafe / everyday as opposed to very high end
  3. These are some screenshots from Shawn Gawle's website https://www.shawngawle.com/
  4. https://www.instagram.com/p/CuKrYVotiju/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Posted on the Googdnight Hospitality @goodnighthospitality instagram page on July 1: Today we're celebrating @theshawngawle as he steps down from his role as executive pastry chef at Goodnight Hospitality to open up his own restaurant! Shawn has been with us since day one and his talent and unique perspective has raised the bar for pastry programs in Houston and beyond. He was an integral part in building up our pastry program, and he's leaving us in great hands with @samm_2424 (stay tuned for a dedicated introduction to Sam soon!) It's always a rare treat to witness such a collaborative transition between two creative and talented pastry chefs! Wishing Shawn all the best on in his new adventure. We can't wait to see what he builds!
  5. They added portapotties and dumpster onsite and they’ve been cleaning out the inside over the last few days
  6. 17 parking spaces instead of building out the whole building ??
  7. Please please tell me they will put parking in the back
  8. The Fitzgerald's lot as well as the little covered parking lot between Pho Binh and Christian's Tailgate is owned by a company called EZ Park - there were rumors of them wanting to build a 32 story tower at the White Oak Dr / Studewood intersection. not sure where they are with any of this process. but they also own Railway Heights Market and if how that is going is any indication of their future direction, I wouldnt hold my breath.
  9. We could also use some Latin American (Colombian, Peruvian, Salvadorian), Middle Eastern (Israel, Greek, Persian, etc)
  10. What’s everyone’s thoughts on the Allen’s new light scheme? Definitely a showpiece at night
  11. Railway could be such a nexus. 1 mile from Heights Hike and Bike Trail, 1 mile from Memorial Park. They ought to be lobbying hardcore for the trails to be extended
  12. The only active project there is a connection between San Felipe and Memorial Drive. It’s taking forever to coordinate with centerpoint and Union Pacific and thus the cost has ballooned but the city is still going at it https://www.h-gac.com/uploads/transportation-improvement-program-call-for-projects/30043512262014100539AM.pdf
  13. IIRC that giant parking lot by the depot will be turning into detention and potentially parkland
  14. https://hypebeast.com/2023/8/lighthouse-immersive-inc-files-bankruptcy wonder what this means for their space here
  15. Let’s just put it this way, whatever METRO recommends ultimately is what the city will implement. If the board of directors at METRO is convinced of keeping three general purpose lanes in this section of the project, it will happen this way. Sure the city could technically pump the breaks because it’s their right of way and have authority over METRO but this road redesign is so minuscule that the city in full force is *unlikely* to interject.
  16. We were given a quick presentation on this by a planner at the city and she was telling us this is very much up to METRO
  17. Still, residence inn is part of the Marriott brand and no matter what the hotel looks like, nowadays they add some lobby activity and all those guests are real cash spending guests that are looking for things to do in the area
  18. 🙌 I love all the hotel development happening around the central neighborhoods. When I had moved away for work and I visited Houston, I never understood why there were such few options outside of CBD
  19. The section in question is currently three lanes and a bike lane in each direction they are proposing maintaining the three lanes and adding an exclusive bus only lane in the middle while removing the bikeway. They are removing buses from the current three vehicular lanes so effectively they are widening the road for vehicular traffic Three lanes of traffic now un-impeded by bus traffic would be hard and unpleasant to cross as a pedestrian and we would lose safety improvements that accompany road diets (less speeding) for me this is not about losing the bike lane. I would be most in favor of making an extra wide path similar to what they did on Bagby in downtown on both sides where there is a designated bikeway and plus a pedestrian exclusive path.
  20. Not sure if we have a topic already for Spring Creek. Wanted to get a sense of how much of Spring Creek currently has trails. Google Maps is not updated and the Houston Bike Plan Map does not include it because most of it is outside of CoH limits. I know the longest completed section is from I45 to US-59 (~16.5 miles) there are approximately 5 miles of trails west of 45 but I’m not sure how far they go. what about Tomball?
  21. Do you know if Modera Waugh did the same thing with the sidewalk and part of the driving lanes?
