I heard from a guy at work that this may be in the works, anybody know for sure if this is a 'for sure' thing?

I know they have a ways to go before 249 is complete, especially the Tomball bypass part, just curious.

Thanks,

Hi,

New here, but not to the Houston area, found this thread using google, so hope you don't mind if I tack on to it.

I know some of you guys here don't like the stucco look and everybody has their own tastes, which is cool. Since I've been in Houston a while and you don't see too many houses with that Mediteranian(sp?) look, I think in a way, it's kind of unique. Most homes are brick bottom floor, hardy planks top, and some even have some fish scale(ugly in my opinion) look for design too. Here's the deal:

I'd like to have a Mediteranian style house built, but using brick(apparentley stucco+Houston=Bad News). Any suggestions? Lighter(pastel) color brick with mortar similar in color to it, so that it kind of looks like one color? I drive by cookie cutter houses everyday and it makes me sick and I don't want one. This will be a custom home on some property that I've owned for years and finally(financially) can build something on.

Thanks,

--Alan
