Preach on

It was 740 am. As a teen, I would sit in bed and treat it as story time. Lol

I live on this street and flooding is not an issue. Tropical Rita and the last one produced rain but no flooding. However you will pay for flood Insurance. For these newer pier and beam homes, it will come around $300

If I am not mistaken, homes along Turkey Gully got flooded. Hence my developer bought up the trailer park lot for the cheaps and built our homes. With the pier and beam foundation, I feel confident about my house. My garage on the other hand is another matter.

I have lived in Shady Acres for eight years now. In 2003, most people thought I was nuts due to the overrun lots, abandonned homes, dilapidated houses/businesses, lack of national stores and so on. However, that has all changed in the last few years. My property value has increased at least 40 percent. Home prices are very stable in this area. In the last real estate home report by the Houston Chronicle, foreclosure rates are less than 1% for Shady Acres. 1. Safety: Just don't park your cars in the street or driveway. I highly recommend you park it in your garage. We have had several

Got this from the Shady Acres discussion group, "Yes, we are calling the concept Crisp "Wine-Beer-Eatery". Dave, I appreciate the support and the project is in motion so stay tuned."

I apologize. The location is Bevis and W 23. It will replace the dilapidated Shady Acres Grocer. This is great use of abandonned space. I know for myself, one can only take so much Mexican cuisine.

I got an email from the Shady Acres discussion board. "Hi my name is Al Scavelli. I recently purchased the property at 2220 Bevis with my business partners. We are converting the space into a restaurant that will offer beer, wine, and plenty of delicious eats such as Pizza prepared on a stone deck oven. We will offer deli style Hoagies and many other dishes prepared fresh in house by our Chef. If you have any inquiries about updates on our new project please contact me." This is exciting. It is within walking distance from my home.

I was part of the Shady Acres Civic Club board. The La Hacienda was located in the heart of a residential street. It actually backs up to people's backyard. Hence the protests began. However, if I am not mistaken and I don't want to speak for anybody, I think we are for commercial/restaurant establishments on W 19 and W 20 because those streets are commercial corridors. I personally welcome a hamburger joint on W 19. It surely beats more used car lots.

I saw a sign by the apartment developer for an information Developer Meeting on October 26 @ 7 pm Taylor HS Cafeteria

Just for correction: Funny how I was reading this post and people were talking about me. Actually I don't work for the City of Houston. I am just a Shady Acres resident who was part of the Shady Acres Civic Club executive board. I have never been to a Super Neighborhood meeting and I am not a fan of SJL. Heights West will be a welcome addition to Shady Acres. One less bar, I am happy with it.

Chinatown always has the freshest and cheapest variety of seafood. However, due to the distance, I just go down I-10 to Blalock and get my seafood at Ranch 99.

I am excited. We need more asian restaurants in zip code 77008/77007 Booths or tables and chairs? Both if possible Counter service or full service?

I always assumed that builders would put a layer of insulation under the floorboard for crawl space foundation. Boy was I wrong. No wonder the downstairs wood floor was like walking on ice. Can anybody recommend a company that will go under the home and put insulation? thanks
