Highway6 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Anything I want....I want to know what's on the SW corner of Alabama and Edloe.The property with the high walls and security cameras everywhere - I'm guessing it's a private residence.Anyone have any information on it ??

gto250us Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) Go to Bing to see birds-eye views. The links won't take for some reason.Tried looking them up in HCAD but there is no listing at either Edloe or W. Alabama. The HCAD map says "Sunrise of River Oaks" 130-040-0001. That number does not match either address on Edloe or W. Alabama and it is not the usual 13 digit account number. Perhaps someone out there knows what is going on with this property.

Highway6 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 (edited) It looks like a well fortified compound... 15' wall. It has 2 car entries and 2 pedestrian doors all on Alabama Ct, with security camera watching each one. The vehicle entry nearest Alabama has changed from the time the google streetview was there.. it's now wood.Seems like a residence with the tennis court, pool, and guest house.. but still.. most uninviting residence I've ever seen if it is.GIMS shows it comprising of 3 different parcels - 2 vacant and 1 park land. None of the 3 given account numbers pull up in HCAD.. wierd stuff.Go to Bing to see birds-eye views. The links won't take for some reason.Already been, thanks. Does anyone think this isn't a residence ? Edited November 2, 2009 by Highway6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a listing for 3501 W. Alabama for the firm of Samuel M Sullivan. Edited November 2, 2009 by JLWM8609 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highway6 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 3501 W Alabama appears to be the 2 story bldg on the SE corner of the intersection... the same bldg pictured in the yahoo biz page for Sullivan.That address pulls up two listings in HCAD, both owned by St. Lukes Methodist Church.I pass this place multiple times a day.. the address given, i dont remember what it was, but its listed on the west side street - Alabama Ct.It's funny, if you pull up the intersection in HCAD maps... the account # appears to be one of the two listed above.But, if you pull up in intersection in GIMS, its 3 completely different numbers.I see that google maps has a little link for the Sullivan accountant, but I'm wondering if thats a location mistake meant for across the street.Also if you pull up any of the other Alabama Ct. townhome address and search for nearby addresses, this too doesnt show the lot in question.

IronTiger Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I've been thinking about this, but would I be brash to suggest that most of Montrose's residents are yuppies? I could certainly offer a few facts to back this claim up: it's an urban area, it has the types of places that they would typically go to (Whole Foods, independent coffee shops), tend to be politically liberal, and so on. What do you think? Am I right or so hopelessly off the mark that you'd flame me for suggesting such a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WANTAGE, NJ—Acting on anonymous tips from within the Hispanic-American community, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials on Wednesday deported Luis Miguel Salvador Aguila Dominguez, who for the last 48 years had been living illegally in the United States under the name Lou Dobbs. According to the Department of Homeland Security, federal agents stormed the undocumented immigrant's home in an evening raid just hours after the 64-year-old newscaster suddenly announced that he was resigning from CNN, and immediately placed him on an Aeromexico flight departing from Newark Liberty Airport. http://www.theonion....ports_lou_dobbs Edited November 17, 2009 by BryanS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
