What I find interesting is that the downtown homeless population is apparently SO much more intimidating than the Uptown homeless population. Maybe the Uptown homeless dress better. For years, I have heard the standard recitals: "I need gas money to get to my dying poppa in East Texas" all around the Galleria area. And the odors are just as "colorful". Wait at the bus stop with me in front of Neiman's on Post Oak. If you are not upwind, lovely aromas - just like roadside rest stops I remember growing up (before they remodeled them and put in actual septic systems). Do the Spring Chickees like the Galleria?

30 miles door - to - door for my commute. Leave at 7 am. Don't mind it a bit. Let's me live in a place where I don't have neighbors close enough to knock on my window asking for toilet paper while they are still sitting on their john. Since we are speaking anecdotally... I live in an exurban neighborhood...other side of Rosenberg and work in the Galleria. I am in Rosenberg and Sugar Land daily. They are exploding. But I only see this anecdotally of course. As fast as those houses are thrown up - they are filled. There WAS a lull for about two years. But now new roads are being poured in the subdivisions that had been on hold. And new subdivison are going up west of the grand parkway all the way to north of I-10. I just got through voting unsuccesfully against a $250 million bond issuance last week by Lamar Consolidated ISD last week to build yet another high/middle school complex for all those people that apparently aren't moving out here. (anecdotally ).

So what you are saying is you even failed at being ironic.

Yes. Please post some photos. Some people can't access videos at work.

You mean a glorified drainage ditch surrounded by crappy T. Fertita restaurants?

Noticed two new signs up this week. One for Olive Garden. The other for Freebirds, Tutti Frutti, and Panera. Looks like they are starting to fill in some of the pad sites that were left blank.

Saw the sign for this when I was going home yesterday. Seems a bit underwhelming. Wasn't this site being considered for the soccer statium at one point? http://docs.newquest.com/brochures/uptown-crossing.pdf

Any news on this? We took my son to TCH yesterday and had a good view of this building right outside our window. (Sorry - no camera) It looked completely gutted. But there was not a single worker in sight in the building or around it. Are they going to implode it or knock it down piece by piece?
