  1. I think that "movie theater" is actually a liquor store. Pretty sure it says "LIQUORS."
  2. ^^^Never fear... I not only swiped them, but I upped the contrast and reduced the "exposure."
  3. I'm so old, I remember our family moving into a house on Barryknoll right off Gessner...except Gessner wasn't even there yet. There was a big mud puddle in what would later be the intersection. Memorial City Mall was a big vacant parcel of land that I got in trouble for searching for wild blackberries on. The Katy Freeway was nothing but feeder roads. Then Gessner was opened, but it would be years before it went all the way south to Westheimer.. Then Sears and Weingarten's (grocery store) opened in what would someday be the mall. Jack-in-the-Box opened up on Kingsride. You could order a burger, or a cheeseburger. That was it. Oh yeah, I went to Bunker Hill Elementary School.
  4. Then making the sidewalk wider like it seems to be at Mid Main might make me happier. Just feels more urban to me. I wonder what the Complete-Streeters think of the new sidewalks on Post Oak Boulevard? https://theboulevardproject.com/construction/updates (Post Oak photo not mine)
  5. IMO, in a neighborhood like this, the sidewalk should extend to the curb.
  6. San Felipe between Post Oak and Chimney Rock is a great place for this kind of residential development. I'd love to see more. I'm not necessarily thrilled by the building itself, but at least it isn't hideous. Pleasant enough urban infill.
