    This entire area is a national brand now. Very impressive.

    And even then most cities with light rail aren't traveling at crazy speeds. It's usually the same speeds as traffic. Look at cities like Philly, Boston, with at grade light rail.

    Wow that's awesome. I did some work here a few years ago. Sad to see it go but glad the plan is for mixed use.

    I honestly believe downtown needs to bring in new forms of business. Oil has been the brand downtown but I'd like to see other types of business whether retail, real estate, etc set up shop in some of these buildings. Houston is definitely at a turning point for redefining itself.

    Well IF the station is going to be built here, you can bet a developer is going to create some city centre environment for visitors. We should call it little dallass

    No we need a connecting link between Downtown and Uptown and we're in business!

    Thank goodness this church is taking over that terrible development.Regardless of your beliefs, I've always felt that a church provides a solid anchor for future development. A church brings with it a sense of community and neighborhood. Plus they are usually well kept up with.

    And it begins... driving through the East End yesterday, I tried my best to envision a covered freeway park. I guess when it all comes together, it will really connect downtown to the East End. The good thing is a lot of the sidewalks and walkability will increase greatly on that end of town due to the construction. I guess I'm a little bummed to see a couple of historic buildings with so much potential get leveled to the ground.

    HOLY CRAP! WeWork is coming to Houston!!! This is HUGE! This will hopefully draw new types of business to the city as well! Wow I'm seriously in shock lol

    Either way those pedestrian crossings are terrible.

    Let's get out there and show city council we need a new bike plan. I can't believe anyone on city council is even asking if we even need a plan. That blows my mind to pieces. Anyways, let's support this progressive movement! http://bikehouston.org/calendar/#!event/2017/2/21/public-session-on-houston-bike-plan-before-the-vote

    Where are you from Samagon?

    I almost feel like Metro should make a few of those medians fully paved over and easy to cross for pedestrians. I mean you already have to cross the tracks to get across the street or get on a station platform.

    I get annoyed with complaints about parking
  18. j_cuevas713
    Yeah you're probably right. I'm just tired of free construction everywhere, especially freeway construction
  19. j_cuevas713
    This sucks! This is going to take forever to finish! The East End is screwed for a long time.
  20. j_cuevas713
    Woah! I hope this happens. I hate TxDOT, and their inability to think progressively. Very backwards thinking with that organization.
  21. j_cuevas713
    Yeah its supposed to start next month
  22. j_cuevas713
    Is that decision set in stone?
  23. j_cuevas713
    A bowl of cereal? Lol

    I wish they would link up Galveston and Houston before doing this. I'm not a fan of the train because I personally think it's a waste of money, and I support transit of all kinds!
