  1. I got some help from ChatGPT. Something like this? 
    North of I-10 (downtown), south of I-610, east of I-45, west of US-59. Near Northside is a historic neighborhood primarily inhabited by people of Hispanic descent. Evolving into a mix of long-term residents and new professionals seeking downtown and Heights proximity, it boasts a few hip bars and breweries, adding to its vibrant character.

    I know it’s too long.

    While I'm happy about the bike lane along Heights, I don't mind armadillos but the city doesn't move fast enough to repair those that are damaged or broken.  W Cavalcade is a gravesite for damaged armadillos. I've contacted the Greater Northside a couple of times to get those fixed and that was over 2 years ago. 

    Have you tried 311?  There is a website you can make a report online. The city fixed some car poles that fell over on Quitman and Fulton. But one has fallen again.

    News regarding 1005 Hogan St in this week's Bisnow Deal Sheet:


    "Cushman & Wakefield arranged the sale of a 1.3K SF retail building at 1005 Hogan St. Mike Pittman II represented the undisclosed seller in the transaction, which is expected to turn into an adaptive reuse project."

    Thank you. I hope it is something good.

    I went to both the Taft and S. Main locations and the people that worked there pronounced it An-tones.....

    Pretty sure it was always pronounced An-tones.  I remember the location at OST and S. Main quite well along with the Victoria Station rail cars.

    OK might have just been my Dad pronouncing it like the street Antoine.

    It wasn't always that way. When the Northside section of the Red Line was originally constructed, there was not nearly the amount of pedestrian fencing that exists now. Metro added more fencing several years ago to certain areas, supposedly to prevent people from walking out in front of trains. IMO it's a hindrance and should not be necessary - people mostly manage to keep out of the way of cars, so they ought to be able to keep out of the way of something as big as a train. Then again, you'd think cars would not turn directly in front of trains, but there were a bunch of car-train collisions caused by careless/inattentive drivers when the rail lines first entered service (and it still happens occasionally now).

    Yea I was wondering how it is in other cities. I see people jumping the fencing at times.

    @jessicauVery valid frustration. I would suggest submitting a suggestion to METRO at the specific intersections you would like to see a crossing.

    I want to take a video. Thank you for the information.
