  1. IIRC, it was still the Continental Airlines building at the time. I thought it was funny that southbound Southwest Airlines flights made their sharp left turn over this building on their way to Hobby... It's like they were buzzing the competition.
  2. I'm going to guess there was a building a few feet away next door, so they didn't go through the expense of putting a nice facade on something that not many people would see.
  3. Skanska will break ground on their downtown properties, and not just to move that big tree
  4. One of the parking lots has been rented by Rise Rooftop , now Warehouse Live, for valet parking
  5. I did a thing at (insert venue name here) for one of the two sportsball teams from Monday's match. Their head of the board of regents was standing next to me while the president of their university was rallying the troops, bragging about how their sportsball players are smarter than the rest. The head of the board of regents leaned over to me and asked me if I was taking notes.... I leaned back at her and told her I'm from Texas, you people from north of the Red River don't know jack about sportsball.
  6. all the easy prey is gone.\that's why it's a ghost town.
  7. what did you think of the almost new Warehouse? The construction project is halfway done, there's major things planned, coming in the next few months.
  8. yes. Almost every hotel downtown has large meeting rooms and ballrooms, most are booked a year or more in advance. When most people think of conventions, they think of the quilting thing, the United Rents thing (it takes up the entire GRB with overflow to hotel ballrooms), and other large events like that. There are hundreds of corporate shows every year around town, more space is needed.
  9. the Furs have been known to rehearse at Francisco's Studios in EaDo. We had them for two nights once. We did the first night of their tour one day, then had them for a private party the next day. Do i miss those days? No. Thanks for getting me fired, dave chappelle... .
  10. the guy quoted in the cnn article is right. We need an intermodal location for bus and train. The only difficulty is that the train station is nearly impossible to find, and the parking lot there is garbage for busses at the moment. The advantage to using the train station as intermodal is that it is in a relatively safe area thanks to all the police officer stations nearby.
  11. she can always drive to New Mexico. or get a second opinion. I trust doctors about as far as I can throw them these days
