    Houston's Tony Marron Park is set to undergo major renovations at the end of this year. But before then, Buffalo Bayou Partnership and Aurora Picture Show are throwing one last big art fest at the east side park. Called Night Light, the festival features several visual artists who have created site-specific light installations that will be projected throughout the park on the evening of April 6. It's a continuation of Houston's long-standing embrace of light and space artists, from James Turrell Skyspace at Rice University to Carlos Cruz-Diez to Jean-Michel Jarre's Rendez-vous Houston, which famously lit up the buildings of Downtown in 1986. For Night Light, BBP’s co-presenter, Aurora Picture Show, has chosen mostly Houston artists, including Violette Bule, Ronald Llewellyn Jones, and duo Nick Vaughan & Jake Margolin, who will create site-specific works to be displayed in the park. This is the second year that the festival will take place at Tony Marron Park and will likely be the last event there until renovations at the park are completed in 2026. https://www.chron.com/culture/arts/article/night-light-festival-houston-18967660.php

    The Planning Commission deferred this to get more information on the dimensions of the building and public sidewalks right of way. 3 people spoke against it including a person associated with 1500 Gray proposed development and two who claimed to live close by. The one person who spoke for it said that IH45 Pierce Elevated was coming down and the building doesn't encroach the existing alley. He mentioned that the Midtown Development District would acquire the property under IH45 when it is demolish to build a park.

    A new nonstop flight to Tweed-New Haven Airport in Southern Connecticut is making its way to Houston. Avelo, established in 2018 and based in Houston, will be the only airline connecting William P. Hobby Airport to Connecticut via a nonstop flight when the service starts June 14, a news release announced. Flights will depart twice a week on Fridays and Mondays on a Boeing Next Generation 737 aircraft. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/trending/article/houston-connecticut-nonstop-flight-avelo-19351230.php

    I found 5 new locations where new murals will be going up in downtown. 1. Jury Duty parking garage at 1401 Congress. Couldn't find parking so I don't know the artist. 2. 1111 Main St. parking garage, the building Harris County recently purchased. It already has two murals on it. 3. Houston Ballet building 601 Preston St. I met this artist, bimbo. Said he was prepping the wall for his art. https://streetartmankind.org/artists/bimbo/ https://www.instagram.com/art_of_bimboadenugba/?hl=en He said he recently did this mural. 4. & 5. On the Holiday Inn at 1616 Main St. Two separate murals one on the back of the attached parking garage and one on the back side of the hotel. JDL is doing the mural on the parking garage. She is Dutch. She does incredible art, anxious to see it. https://streetartmankind.org/artists/jdl-street-art/ https://www.instagram.com/jdlstreetart/?hl=en There was no artist here but you could see work had started. While I was taking these pics I saw Dragon76art, he wasn't doing this one but bimbo told me he will be doing a mural. He did the huge "Hunger" mural on the back side of the Hampton Inn a couple years ago. https://streetartmankind.org/artists/dragon76/ https://www.instagram.com/dragon76art/?hl=en

    Looks like these apartments have a name, "The Heron Museum District". I noticed a permit for a sign at this location. For Rent.Com has them listed on their website. https://www.forrent.com/tx/houston/the-heron-museum-district/zch37qz Sign permit.

    Chaad Whitmire likes killing people with monster trucks with bull nuts hanging from the bumper.

    They rehabbed every single building in this project, why would they build new with just these two?

    I guess they are no longer going to offload them at the PHA docks just inside the 610 bridge? They used that location for decades and before they took it over it was used by Toyota. I saw thousands of cars coming off the car carrier ships because they were right across from the shipyards I used to operate cranes at.
