    Nice, its a old Eckerd Drugs building that was converted into a pawnshop. Not really a great visual in Bellaire proper.

    Torchy's has a lot of swinging strike outs!
  3. texas911
    Try Blood Bros!

    Phase 2 looks like its going. They already demo'd and cleared the structure that used to house Auntie Pasto's.

    Self driving cars will help traffic because they won't be a-hole drivers cutting in line or running red lights or cutting people off or swerving 3 lanes to make an exit or turning left from the right lane or blocking an intersection. All these things add up to make traffic terrible in Houston. I blame the unlicensed drivers from third world countries and then the licensed drivers following suit. I for one can't wait for self driving cars to get these terrible drivers from driving!

    That's going to be a beautiful shopping mall when its done.

    It has hit critical mass. What Chinatown needs is a signature piece of architecture. Like a public square or statue or something. In fact, Houston in general is lacking of strong public works of art or signature buildings to make it easy recognizable.

    I hope not. I like Chinatown as it is and hope it continues to grow. We need "districts" so that Houston gets some character at least. Once we start spreading out it just becomes any town USA. Our Chinatown is really getting pretty nice, much better than it was when it was downtown.

    Drove by and it looks like they are making slow but steady progress on the streets. Maybe the wet winter we had slowed them down. Anyway I hope it pushes through as it looks like a neat project.
  10. texas911
    Any updates on this project?

    I really hate it when they publish maps/site drawing with north not pointing up.

    It would fit right in at the ATM campus. Ugly!
  13. texas911
    Probably it'll be in the phase 1 area, in the corner of 59 and Airport. Its the most visible corner and almost ready to open.
  14. texas911
    Drove by The Grid and it looks like the first restaurant that is about to open is Chipotle! Waiting for that In n Out!

    Plus there are already a lot of support services in the med center, that UH would have to duplicate in a stand alone facility. I know its noble to have it in the third ward, but we need this to be successful. UT, ATM, TWC, PVA&M, are already at the med center. UH should rightly be there as well.

    I disagree about it not being at the med center. It should be in the med center so that they can mingle with professionals in their field. Lots of them! Plus its great advertising to the thousands of patients that go to the med center.
  17. texas911
    Looks like its going to be a nice place.
  18. texas911
    This should be successful, lots of restaurants in close proximity are alway very busy, such as the Pappadeaux and Gringos.
  19. texas911
    Looks like progress. Its got most of its parking in the back. FYI.
  20. texas911
    moo. Missed opportunity here. I look at what's happening in the rest of the world and wonder why Houston can't come up with a signature skyscraper for its skyline.

    The Goodyear has infinitely more interesting architecture than the proposed one. Shame.
  22. texas911
    Well it looks like it ended up great for everyone, because EHS is quite a feather in Bellaire's cap!
  23. texas911
    Now that USA/Mex/Can won to host the 2026 World Cup, can Houston get a game or two? I think we might have a chance seeing as we've hosted two great Super Bowls and multiple NCAA basketball tourney regionals/championships. We have rail and we are the 4th largest city in the USA. Plus NRG has the option for a grass field. Or will Dallas steal our thunder yet again?

    What killed HISD's proposal to buy the old Chevron property was resistance from Bellaire about lost tax revenue. High end homes generate more income than tax free schools!

    HCC is such an asset for the city! Should they change their name to Houston City College instead of HCC?
