  1. Here's an interesting site I'd never seen: http://community.rice.edu/focusresources/b...ustrations.html
  2. I don't know about purchasing, but there are some maps here: http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/arc/maps/ Here's an interesting one: http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/arc/maps/images/map0435.jpg and here's a 1961 one. It must have been quite an event when they built the interstates - looks like a few neighborhoods got bulldozed: http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/cgi-bin/aris/ma...hp3?mapnum=5164
  3. Here are some: http://www.cah.utexas.edu/db/dmr/dmr_resul...tial+facilities You can also search for "Heights" and get some others. One of my favorites: http://www.cah.utexas.edu/db/dmr/image_lg....iable=e_bb_1587 The Library has an archive downtown I believe. The Heights Association has some at: http://www.houstonheights.org/photos.htm Some links off: http://ghpa.org/links/
  4. They have Freebird's in Austin, too. I'm a fan. Pretty good non-burrito items, too. A step above Mission or Chipotle.
  5. Friend said she saw a sign out front today that said "Going out of Business. Ladies Only". Anyone know what's going on there?
  6. About a year ago I heard that they own a large chunk of the land across Yale/adjacent to the old rail line, and some sore of housing development was planned there - very upscale houses and walled off from the rest of the neighborhood. Anybody else hear that one? I'll check with the person that told me that and see if they know what's going on with their land.
  7. Just west of Sage, I think, between Richmond and Westheimer is a "luxury" high-rise. No balconies....few windows. Me no likey.
