  1. Wow. That makes me ill, especially considering what it replaced. Looks like the strip malls over on the southwest side near Harwin. Almost any strip mall on the southwest side near Harwin. This is just sad for River Oaks and Houston. I really hope the theatre doesn't get demolished now. What is the status of that anyway?
  2. It will be interesting to see how the park fares during summer. I don't imagine anyone will be out around say, 1 p.m. in the middle of July, but once Discovery Tower goes up it should provide some extra shade and the wind whipping around the buildings should provide some relief. Now when there is no breeze at all and the air is thick and stagnant...
  3. haha, yes, judging from the treeline in the reflection of that bldg, yes, that must be it. thanks. and it's "she".
  4. I don't know, that's why I'm asking! I noticed there's a big hole in the ground there this past weekend at the art car party that I somehow missed the first time I went, in my excitement, I guess. The same side as the lake. Lemme see... Checking the map, I guess this would be on McKinney and LaBranch, not Austin. Whatever it is it looks to be taking up an entire city block, or more.
  5. Lakeside, right across the street at McKinney and Austin (I think)? I meant to post this in Going Up! Will a mod please move it? Thanks!
  6. I thought they did that on purpose, to psych us Houstonians out into thinking it was natural instead of manmade. I think of it as bayou-colored.
  7. Yeah. Can you imagine what it would be like once summer rolls around without trees? I went there for the first time on Saturday. Great park! It looks like the trees are blocking the view from the angle that picture was taken, but they're really not when you're out there on the ground. You can see the stage just fine.
  8. Very nice pictures! Is the giant Rubic's cube (I had the same thought!) really a public restroom? I remember visiting San Fran years ago and wishing we had those in Houston instead of the ever-so-classy Port-a-Potties.
