TheNiche Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 Then it's a beige wall. Not exactly iconic.What about a train? More freight rail tonnage travels through the East End than any other part of Houston.Shouldn't be hard to find a picture, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNiche Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 Cypress?But I don't know what the heck we'd use for a picture.....Cy-Fair's new stadium. Or perhaps Bridgelands' retention ponds with the forest in the background along Cypress Creek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I want one of those HAIFer things.Can I have one that says "Sexy HAIFer", if not that, then "Katy HAIFer"? Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

editor Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I want one of those HAIFer things.Can I have one that says "Sexy HAIFer", if not that, then "Katy HAIFer"? Please? Done. I used the Katy city seal. If someone sends me a picture of something iconic, I'll update it. City seal doesn't work for Cy-Fair since one is unincorporated and the other is part of Houston. Maybe a highway sign? 290? Some state highway? An FM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would make good bumper stickers.I can't find a big enough image of the Katy seal to be usable. Here's some regular HAIF bumper stickers, though: http://www.cafepress.com/artefaqs/5235500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaE Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Why yes, I think they would. It's not the residents that are pushing for a new name after all. An "East End Haifer" tag would demonstrate pride in the East End name. Three cheers for that statement. I was wondering where those tags were coming from...now I know. For the East End I like a pic of the Convent, or a train is not a bad idea either. Or the mansion in Forest Hill, or the coffee cup. I know the ship channel is there, but don't like that idea, unless it's an old pic. What do you think, Vertigo???I know you have an opinion.

Trae Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 How exactly do I put it under my name? I got some other ideas for Katy, too: That's La Centerra in Cinco Ranch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheeats Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 If I give you a picture of Memorial (trees? McMansions next to mods?), can I get a Memorial HAIFer? I'm a native Memorialan! And...great work! These little badges are truly, truly awesome. sarahiki was right -- these would make great bumper stickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeebus Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I can't use the Imperial Sugar logo. That would be trademark infringement. However, I can use a picture of the building. Thanks Editor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheeats Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Okay, a couple of possibilities for Memorial (and these are my pictures, so...moo on the quality): And a few for the Energy Corridor, just in case someone randomly requests it in the future: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
