Big Humphrey's was the pizza of choice on Park Place.

I grew up in the house on the corner of Park Place and Juniper, in the next block from the police station. The houses in that neighborhood (including the law office) were post-World War II housing for returning servicemen. I'm confident that's the origin of the name Reveille. There was one large, older house right across Park Place from us, but all the houses south of Park Place were all post-WWII vintage. My mother, who lived in the house until the early 1990s, told me our house was the first built in the Santa Rosa development. I have photos and when I get a chance I'll dig them out and post them here. I just discovered this site, thanks to a friend who is interested in the history of Sharpstown, where he grew up. What a great find!
