    Those are the same people that still thought a Sprouts was going in, even though I posted a link to this HAIF topic every single time someone posted about it over the last three years.

    Even in the post you referenced there was still a “I thought this was going to be a Sprouts?” comment. 

    Every. Damn. Time. It's not going to be a Sprouts people.

    I will try to give people the benefit of the doubt that it's more a symptom of the neighborhood needs a better grocery store than Polk Kroger.

    Stopped by Teaspresso this AM. Still in their soft opening. If you've been to the Heights location, then you'll be familiar with the vibe and menu. A little expensive for boba imo (a boba with one topping and a 18% tip ran me $7), but it's good. 

    The person I spoke to, who I believe is one of the owners, lives closeby in the neighborhood, so grab some boba and support local!

    1. Ace Bounce (a Ping Pong, shuffleboard, Beer Pong party bar) from Chicago...  mmmkay

    2. Federal American Grill

    3. Duo Coffee & Pliates

    4. Cutthroat (Barbershop) 

    5. Waterside or Watershed 

    6. Plank

    7. Orange Theory

    8. Hopdoddy Burger Bar

    9. HS

     

    In Negotiation 

    1. Ambriza (Social Mexican Kitchen)

    2 Astorian (Event Space / Rooftop)

    3. Lick

    4. Urban Dental

    #5 - If it's Watershed, might be a second location of this spot: https://www.watershedhtx.com/

    #7 - I am all about Orange Theory moving in closer to me

    In Negotiation

    #2 - Interesting that the Astorian is trying to build another space. The one near the Target on Sawyer is beautiful but like right next to that Target. Maybe this space will have a nice view of the Bayou/ Downtown.

    Buffalo Bayou Master Plan

    That underpass is quite unfortunate. That's our entrance to the bayou, and I swear when I take visitors to walk along the bayou, they probably think I'm going to take their kidneys or something. 

    Once they clean up the sidewalks on Lockwood, it'll look better and if they can add some plants and rocks like they do at most of the other underpasses on the west side of Downtown, it'll look so nice and maybe discourage people from dumping their garbage under there. 

    Also, I asked about that unpaved section next to Tony Marron park at one of the recent BBP meetings, and they said it's slated to be paved/ manicured once they start their East End work.

    The last 30 seconds they talk about potentially adding residential and/or office developments on the surface lot spaces, and more connections to the bayou/city in the future.

    I also noticed this on a Facebook ad. Hoping 713 Music Hall isn’t the official name, but saw there are 5 other concerts scheduled in addition to the 2 Rufus shows.

    I'm pretty sure 713 Music Hall is the official name.

    IMO this is great. Better than tearing down a charming home.

    Well, the permit was specifically for the building at 4210 Canal, which was the building that used to house the skate shop. It definitely looks more retail, so I was surprised to see the company on the permit managed Airbnbs.

    The house behind this building is currently under renovations as well.
