    Not long before calls for landscaping renovations for the street themselves. ..to give it a legit neighborhood feel

    I travel the area every night for work and can tell you the new development is not a threat to the existing business quite the opposite, I remember the ghost town this area was after 5 pm ..now it does decent foot traffic on weekdays and actually looks live on the weekends. ..the increase in residential is benefiting the business there as people like the vibe and how it doesn't feel like another massed product hip spot created in some Corp board room...that has allowed it to have a natural urban vibe tjat I think people are responding to..I'm glad the developer reconized that and incorporated it into the building design

    I have always felt that sam Houston statue was being wasted and it would look great Downtown. ..there a gap between the highway along the buyou that would look great coming into downtown

    Not surprising given the area explosion as a hot spot and parking shrinking in that area that for the time being they see a parking lot as more revenue potential than another building ..The beauty about Hines unlike other companies is that the moment they decided that a building is more profitable than a lot..they will most likely move ahead with it.

    What if the city tried to get them to move floors and give up the ground floor...it be more asking than trying to force I mean..of course some type of incentive would probably have to be involved. . Another thing that I was thinking about was those mobile trunks, like the ones that come downtown from time to time...at least in the interim to get people use to thinking it as a retail area

    It not fancy, even though it has a nice section

    Another key difference is the eras you mentioned were the height of what some deem "White flight ".WhIle the 2000,s have seen a near reverse with many young people and empty nesters opting to leave their big suburban homes for lofts and townhouses closer to city cores.

    Passed by burger theory this afternoon 1ish nice size crowd.. beats last week were it was dead. Think being a adjacent to the hotel will really help this place

    It looks like a damn prison

    I dint like the over head view till I saw it from first person, it growing on me.. I wish they had gone a little bolder with the art form the 1 dollar store front (to safe to conservative ) The one that caught my attention is the swartz building, they seem to be saying some sort of video screen (think Chicago ) which will project people faces as they pass by....intresting

    Fair enough if ypu say ypu know the people personally and they may have misread the vibe..but it smacks of the 90,s when downtown houston had a bunch of off put one and done shops

    The historic board trying to get it down but it seems auto direct found a loop hole..that probably going to make this a battle. . I hate companys like auto direct...they know the area is trying to do something, but instead only give a damn about themselves

    The problem is only a minority are actually down on there luck..most of the people you see have mental issues, are drug dealer gang members, or just disengage from humanity
  22. Moore713
    But it a matter of rights as it a public space so they can't be ran out ..but according to some rumor I heard the conservicy is in talk to buy the park from the city. That would allow them to have say over who can and can't be there since it would be a private park.

    Look I get it I work the parks ..iv lost count of the numbers of time we have to respond to a Over dose at Hermann.I see the look of disgust on people faces when the are riding the park train and they pass by the hermann memorial statue with their kids and see people passed on on the grass from jus hand it not just one or two it 5 and 6 at a time

    Ok I'm going to explain to you the difficulty of the problem as it pertains to drugs. The D.A does not want to bring charges because time and resources. To haul someone in on something that just going to ither be dismissed or reduce to time served while they were waiting for there court date. That in turns keeps cops from hauling them in because they know they will probably be right back out in a few days (it gets annoying to keep arresting the same people, I worked with cops before who are assigned to Herman )

    You could easy up main street square by allowing street vending, food and retail ,
