  1. went to Wooster's Garden last night. Liked it and found the prices reasonable. http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/12-11-14-new-midtown-bar-vows-to-be-non-snooty-and-unpretentious-there-goes-the-neighborhood/
  2. Very cool building - who owns it? Looks like a great bar.
  3. I started to read this novella then I remembered something I leaned up in Big D. There's a reason Dallas Press & Houston Press write long long long articles ( the main headliner ones) for example recently san jacinto waste pits - it could be done in 2-3 pages but NO it has to be an expose' ( 7-10) pages !!! Wtf - sometimes the content is golden but by length alone they lose me and I'm sure a ton of others. I read this and felt bad then fell asleep zzzz I recommend the aforementioned renter moves to Alpine, TX
  4. Anyone know when the park will open on Grey and Baby. They fenced it off again?
  5. Cool - they need to figure out parking - I'm in.
  6. First I like to drink beer with my friends and get home and poke the bear "I.E." Talk smack on haif. I love this site and value the different opinions of everyone. There are a lot of as$hats but that was a low blow. I live in Midtown and start my bike rides in this area and I was coming from a place where anything would be better than what's there now. NOTHING I want to squeeze every bit of juice from this boom like everyone here but this Developement just struck me as great. So bottom line I like to drink - your not all as$hats ( fav word of mine). I haven't had any beer tonight. It's 9 degrees in Chicago BTW and can't wait to get back to Htown! cheers:)
  7. Agreed this is a bonus spin guys - don't be that guy. Chi-Char's rules to not be an a$$hat 1. Every project does not need GFR 2. Who are you? Put up your own money vs being an armchair qb. 3. Everything needs to be saved. Why? In other big cities they don't lament about a shit building like Houston Club being torn down. I cheer the Angel bros yellow iron chomping that steel as we all should. Bigger, Newer, Better. 4. Enjoy the boom. Remember what you used to get excited about 5 years ago. Guys this is a boom town - exciting times quit trying to get in the conductors seat and sit back and enjoy. Time had told us it will be 20 years until this MAY happen again. I ride my bike past this area every day - the area is straight out of season 5 walking dead - the fact that some would argue against this being a huge WIN just shows me and the reasonable majority here at HAIF ; that you are a bunch of complainers. Bottom line this is a cherry - enjoy it and it will hopefully move "the walkers" elsewhere.
  8. "May the edifice of the gods shine down on thy block" A star is born next to the choo choo" That was my tribute to Monarch : seriously this is great!
  9. I am so mad there is no ground floor homeless food give away stations - when will this city learn. You must give the current residents what they demand.
  10. What would this block cost in 2004? Anyone have any idea
  11. I'm thinking they were posts for ramps for whatever was there before P.E. or 59?
  12. Or an efficient use of limited resources. I had a hard hat on for the concrete pour here and can tell you the guys in charge of this developement are complete proffesionals. I'll leave you with this "You can pay 130 guys full figure "boomtown salaries" to get the job done right. Or you could pay 300 guys a little over minimum wage and throw floors up. Lastly, you throw apartments and pre-fabbed concrete buildings up. This baby is trying to emulate it's mother and make it a damn pain in the ass to demolish. Be patient and encourage Pearls to rush not our larger CBD TOWERS
  13. Good news for the immediate vacinity though. Good luck to the future residents I hope they can bring about a slew of change to the area. It's deader than dead right now minus something at Toyoyta Center
  14. Where will I buy my boats now? lol Hope they can stay as ground floor retail in the tower that's coming. Maybe move downtown in the bottom of skyhouse 3?
