  1. Do you think the dog daycare will survive construction? It seems to be very close to the construction area.
  2. The concrete islands on Heights Blvd have been removed.
  3. According to Google Maps, Little Dreamer Coffee has closed permanently at this kiosk location. They will be moving to Montrose.
  4. You're looking at it from an engineering perspective, I'm looking at it from a personal behavior perspective. I'm assuming frequency would be the same, I'm more likely to take the train over bus. I did not know I could take my bike on board a METROrapid bus.... which kind of proves my point that a train would be better suited. The same for automation. If the vehicle is on a 5 minute schedule, it doesn't matter to me how they are able to be that frequent and reliable. As a rider I am going to use it regardless if it's automated or not.
  5. The neon lights are bright. I had to lower the exposure to be able to photograph the sign.
  6. I don't see how automation does that; I see that it looks like a train/tram/light rail and that's cool. If I had to choose between a bus or train, I choose train every time.
  7. The front building has already been removed and the parking lot is currently $5 pay-to-park.
  8. Having the shape/look of a train would be better for BRT than having normal looking buses; whether it is autonomous or has a driver isn't as important to me.
  9. What link did @hindesky post that says this is the same company? I'm sorry but it isn't so clear to me, and if it was so clear as you say, you would have been able to show me the first time.
  10. I thought the lighting on the second floor windows looks interesting. Progress has been slow since I posted last year.
  11. How long does it take to rack up $51,000 in back rent?
  12. This does not feel like Houston to me.
  13. I wish they could connect this section with Buffalo Bayou Park to the south.
  14. Do you really think it's acceptable to spend as much time looking for parking as it takes to drive there?
  15. The sign used to be 100% FM Kitchen but now it's only a third of the sign space and Pkl takes up 2/3 of the sign. I was surprised it wasn't 50/50 but I guess they expect Pkl to be a bigger draw.
  16. The twobridges instagram has turned into a Houston pro-bike project in beyond their namesake project.
  17. I think this is great news. Houston isn't well-known as a tourist city, but people are visiting Houston all the time, so it is good to see something new become a place for people to check out.
  18. Was this last night? I saw several emergency vehicles there in the rain last night while I was on the bus.
  19. With the entrances on the streets between Shepherd and Durham, does this mean traffic lights will be installed at one or both of the intersections? Will that affect how the Shepherd/Durham corridor is constructed from 4 to 3 lanes?
  20. They should paint them to look like a huge tree.
