And it's going to change again if they go ahead and go through with the expansion of 45. : ( -
If an older woman chases after younger guys, that makes her a cougar but if an older man chases younger women, then what does it make him?

Here's the one on Washington Ave. Looks like Oriley's bought this one too some time back, it's some kind of Sushi place now.

Holy Crap, the one on North main is an Oriley's Auto parts now. The building looks like it's from the 30's or 40s. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3600+n+main,+Houston,+TX&hl=en&ll=29.790789,-95.37294&spn=0.006202,0.006539&sll=29.791103,-95.372656&layer=c&cbp=13,38.13,,0,0&cbll=29.790789,-95.37294&hnear=3600+N+Main+St,+Houston,+Texas+77009&t=h&z=18&vpsrc=0&iwloc=A&panoid=qNXqXmTsq4EET22lyuJvQQ

Okay so I text my Kids mom and my Son to see if they are going to go trick or treating; I'd say around 3:30 - 4 o'clock and they again around 5 and never got a response from either one of them, I text them just now to let them know that they are wrong for ignoring me and they act like they don't know what I'm talking about; WTF?

Here is a later photo of the newer building from the 70's

Here's a picture from around 1930, this is off of Quitman and Fulton where Fiesta is now, it was remolded sometime after to what it looks like now but I don't know when. Fiesta bought the building like in the mid 70's or early 80's (don't remember) when the original Fiesta off of Fulton was burned down during the Moody Park Riots.

Hi, I would like to know where did you find this article? I have not been able to find any maps showing Houston Ave. as Clay St. I went as far back to an 1887 map and is shows up a Houston Ave. I would be most grateful if you could share the source of this information. Thanks.

Wow W.Montgomery running down Yale st. explains why there is an old Yale st. Probably after they renamed that section of W. Montgomery to Yale they changed it. Cool

I seem to remember seeing that plaque; was it the smaller bridge? If I remember correctly this was before they built the bigger brige that goes over the railroad tracks where the Houston Car Auction use to be. Is this right?

http://www.tsl.state.tx.us/arc/maps/images/map0435.jpg The link above takes you to a Map from 1913 which shows the Turner addition with the Chestnut and Sycamore streets clearly labeled running vertically but notice that the streets that run horizontal are blank, these are the number streets. My guess is that they are blank because they haven't came up with new names for them but I could be wrong.

http://www.box.net/shared/dinisgvl6j This 1920 Map of Houston shows Main already running North but North Main did not exist prior to the building of the Main St. Bridge Note: West Montgomery Road Highlighted in Blue.
