  1. Big changes are coming to the Galleria.

     

    http://www.houstonchronicle.com/business/article/Galleria-project-aims-to-up-glam-factor-4788137.php

     

    From the Chron article:
     

    An ambitious plan to bring more high-end retail to the Houston Galleria will start with moving Saks Fifth Avenue into fancier digs and getting rid of one of the mall's two Macy's department stores.

    When demolition and reconstruction of what is now the Galleria III is complete, scheduled for fall 2015, an expanded Saks flagship will open in the space now occupied by the Macy's facing Sage and other shops.

     

    Mall developer Simon Property Group plans to renovate the existing Saks space nearby to accommodate about 35 new stores and maybe some restaurants.

     

     

    Simon said it might even add a 300-unit high-rise that would provide well-heeled residents direct access to Galleria shops. The renovations are driven by retailer demand, "especially among luxury tenants," said David Contis, president of Simon Malls.

  2. On Yahoo's homepage today in the featured section, an image of, excuse me for not knowing the new name, enron tower II and the skybridge was shown with the title of the article reading:

    Most-lucrative real estate

    Find the neighborhoods in America which have experienced the greatest price appreciation.

  3. Reliant Stadium is a nice place.

    This is a nice article featuring Reliant Stadium.

    a blurb:

    "Oceanside, you have no real idea what lies ahead if the stars align, if the voters approve, and the Chargers put their big foot down on Goat Hill.

    But don't feel bad.

    Neither do I. Neither does almost anybody.

    Well, Jim Steeg, whom we'll meet later, does, but he's probably the most creative thinker in pro football.

    But if you're thinking of an updated Qualcomm, you are so last century. You need to get out more. Houston, perhaps. "
