    They are also building a bridge next to Montrose. I saw the design but cannot remember where I saw it. Maybe Culture Map I'll try to look for it. It is a totally different design with a steel are over it.

    METRO is already doing a study on US90A/Southwest Rail Corridor commuter rail from Fort Bend to Harris county to connect with the Fannin rail station. Currently it is in EIS (ROD) Final design will be in 2015. That should help some commuters once it is completed.

    I want the rail down Richmond Ave. Metro spend millions for the study but Culberson killed it. Time to move on, I hope they build a Tollway from Kirby to the Galleria right through Afton Oaks! They did not want rail and got their way. Now it all the mid rises and retail off Westheimer. Hundreds of cars will cut through Afton Oaks due to all the traffic. Unless they can build bridges over Westheimer and Richmond.

    All this bickering is pointless. Richmond is in such bad shape, potholes, it floods all the time. They are building midrises from Kirby to the spur and Richmond Ave will only get worse. Since Culberson got his way. They should rebuilt it to one lane in each direction in the middle. And the rest of it have bike lanes, huge sidewalks with a park. Add lots of tress and landscaping. That would make everybody happy! There is a book called "Made for Walking" by Julie Campoli. How so many cities transformed from traffic, closed business into walkability.

    The 787-9 started service yesterday flight 1086 IAH to LAX at 240 pm. United has 25 more on order and 27 787-10s. Cannot wait fly on it.

    Great pictures it's a beautiful building. Cannot believe you got up there.
  14. nativehoustonion
    It is going through testing right now. I saw it landing Wednesday at the hanger at IAH. There was 787-8 next to it. United expect 3 more this year, and 10 more 737-900ERs. They also ordered another 70 ERJ-175s the 76 seat delivery expected 2Q next year and ground those 50 seat ERJs! Thanks goodness.

    I got this morning and saw the post. How hilarious when TMC is larger then Downtown Dallas. It looks like neon city with no sizeable buildings.
  18. nativehoustonion
    No I live on the other side of Alabama off Steel St. I can see the construction workers from my second floor. They are working on it even on Saturdays. They are getting ready to install outside façade.
  19. nativehoustonion
    Yes it is great, but residents from La Mansion and putting recycled items in our bin. We have to park the bins at Revere and Steel. They must be 3 feet apart for the truck to unload it. Other residents are putting them too close together which caused and mess yesterday.
  20. nativehoustonion
    Thanks found it 48 first class seats how nice. Booked it cannot wait!
  21. nativehoustonion
    Thanks I like your imput. I got confused reading the Downtown Houston Development map. It shows Capitol westbound and Rusk eastbound.
  22. nativehoustonion
    Thanks for the videos. I'm a little confused the East Line Downtown goes westbound on Capitol and Purple Line goes eastbound on Rusk? So from Downtown if you want to take the East Line you take the Purple Line and transfer at the BBVA Stadium? The bad thing is cars will share the track that is not good!

    All those old apartments are coming down. A friend of mine Dennis sold two apartment complexes on the other side.
  24. nativehoustonion
    OMG! That is right near my rental units on Mimosa. I have 4 units, no wonder HAIFers are calling me. They are next the The Womens Center parking lot before it dead ins.
