hindesky Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Currently Brown Bag Deli and a T Mobile. I believe it was a Firestone Tires before, I shipped some tires there from Tire Rack for them to install. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like having ham and cheese on a slice of cake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucesw Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I believe in the early 70s there was a Lack's or Western Auto in there - not sure of the exact address, tho. That's the only BBD I ever went to. Never went back - just so so sandwiches. When you had Nielsen's just off Westheimer, Alfred's in the Village, Antone's on Taft, the Louisiana po-boy place on Main - just didn't need so-so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their cheeseburgers were truly world-class. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amlaham Posted June 4, 2022 Author Share Posted June 4, 2022 It looks like they're extending the building further away from the street lol, hopefully the landscape will make up for it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasota Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 If those cowards at the Planning department had made the 82 a transit corridor this wouldn't be a problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasota Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 The excessive setback from Westheimer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
august948 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 7 hours ago, Texasota said: The excessive setback from Westheimer. It's a long, narrow lot that really faces Huldy, which appears to be how they are orienting the new build. The T-Mobile appears to be staying and is right next to Westheimer. The rest is, if anything, set back from Huldy, not Westheimer. Was there some expectation that they would only build on the narrow end of the lot next to Westheimer?

Texasota Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 You're right; the existence of the T-Mobile and its entrance facing the inside of the lot means there had to be a significant setback. I just like calling out the cowards at the planning department for not making the 82 a transit corridor at every opportunity I can find. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_cuevas713 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Centerpoint needs to go out and fix those damn cables hanging all over the place. It looks dangerous as hell for any pedestrian walking by. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gene Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) everytime i drive by here i think about what a dang missed opportunity this was to have something really cool or at least more original for montrose than just another ugly plain low rise strip center...and to keep that mobile store on the corner is just............ 💀 Edited July 13, 2022 by gene 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_cuevas713 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Based off the rendering it looks like they're removing the parking spots along Westheimer to make more pedestrian space 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
