Timnwendy Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I live in Southern Trails in west Pearland, about 1 mile west of Hwy 288 at 518. This is just south of Shadow Creek Ranch. We did have some wind damage but since we are a young subdivision our trees are relatively small, so we didn't have to worry about trees falling on houses and cars. In fact, we are rather lucky in that we are among the first 112,000 centerpoint customers to get the electricity turned back on. Nevertheless, not all of us here were lucky. Here are some photos I took yesterday. The first one shows a porto-potty and street sign that blew south for 2 blocks. The second one is what Ike did to the two tall flagpoles we have at the entrance to our subdivision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Anyone have any photos from Timbergrove, South of 11th, East of TC Jester? That's our hood, but we're overseas for a bit, and wonder what it looks like. We know some trees are down, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

editor Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 These are pictures by Timnwendy of the Southern Trails subdivision in Pearland. If it's easier for anyone, or if your connection is wonky, you can e-mail your Ike photos to editor@houstonarchitecture.info and I'll put them on. That's what Timnwendy did.

Timnwendy Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Just to clarify, the topmost photo that editor showed in the previous post was a new house still under construction. It wasn't a house stripped bare by the winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 snipWow. I wonder what the rest of Pearland looks like. Especially the Pearland Town Center.This is only a small part of downtown, I couldn't get to the harder hit area today, but I will try tomorrow.This is just crazy. All those trees lean so much, that you just want to lean with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
