I'm so sad!! I grew up in Pasadena. So many memories. So many people that think this is a good thing. :( I realize it was going to be a costly repair job to say the least but this is just devastating.- 160 replies

Yes I went here as a kid. Saw "Stand By Me" Kips was in the building that Frank's Grill is in now, directly in front of it. Great times... -
San Jacinto Park At 3523 Independence Pkwy.
EatSleepMOD replied to LarryDallas's topic in Historic Houston
I agree. It is $1 per person though...not per vehicle...so it keeps out lots of riff raff that were coming in by the van load to smoke dope and skip rope... ya know what I mean... -
San Jacinto Park At 3523 Independence Pkwy.
EatSleepMOD replied to LarryDallas's topic in Historic Houston
I was more pissed that I drove all the way down the main entrance road, only to find it closed off. I guess they dom't have enough money for a sign on Battleground road directing visitors to the side entrance. I noticed the $1 seemed to keep out the riff raff so I will be prepared next time... I may even get a parking spot on a Sunday for a picnic...and trucks won't be parked in the grass, which I thought was rude. My .02 -
Don't forget the beer joints on Preston and Shaver...many are still there. Remember Ramblin Rose, She's Not Here Ice House, He's Not Here Ice House, Daily Double, etc.. I think Micheal J's is still going strong...lol. Deana (from Pasadena)

Englewood - Near North East Area Of Houston
EatSleepMOD replied to Vertigo58's topic in Historic Houston
I read up on Frenchtown in the recent past. I found that area very interesting as well. Maybe it was a middle school...but it WAS quite a potatoe Dr. Suess books everywhere sounds like a great time. My aunt who is almost old enough to be your mother, graduated in 1963 (Well she could be old enough these days....geez). Anyway...when she tells me stories, I think of how wonderful it must have been, growing up in that time period. She said it was wonderful, it was a great time to grow up and stop at the different drive-ins to buy a coke and see your friends. I want to go back to the 60s.... I was born in the 70s.... -
I can assure you that the use of "Why don't" is CLEARLY a red flag that he PROBABLY IS a local homebuilder! Why don't you move into your girlfriends house? Why don't you use "Why doesn't?"

Englewood - Near North East Area Of Houston
EatSleepMOD replied to Vertigo58's topic in Historic Houston
Easy St...that IS ironic. I used to be the Business Manager at a local Culinary school and one of my friends was a recruiter... She said that when she went to Kashmere HS to recruit, she felt like Michelle Pfeiffer in Dangerous Minds because of the fence around the front of the school??...not sure because I have never been there. It was funny to hear her tell the story, but of course the decline of the area is not funny.... -

Awww, that's a great pic. As someone who loves our local history, I will be checking out Englewood real soon (it is on my way home from work)! -
It is sad...I feel bad for Mr. Cohen and the family. And the house....what a gem.

I was at the Macy's next door last weekend and noticed the graffiti at the top of thebuilding's exterior. That mad me sad . I like how you can still see the outline of the old letters that wereon the building for many moons...I recall a certain group of deliquents that were persuaded by an unidentified teenage girlto put soap in the fountain there...while they videotaped the act....HA! Good times, Good times.- 160 replies

Interesting house. The school info is very helpful as well. Why shun a helpful bit of info that is relevant? If you don't like a posting, you could start your own forum and make rules that no one can post anything other than architecture. In all seriousness, could it ruin our architectural discussions that much?
