    What about the previous bungalows that were plowed under to create the current Menil? I don't see why plowing some to the South would make things all that much worse. There's still plenty of neighborhood to go around.

    There isn't any!

    Oops :X Yep, I was thinking of the one that closed.
  4. kylejack
    Hm, am I thinking of the wrong location...?

    Well, the bookstore and Guadalajara and McCormick are paying rent to HP whether they are breaking even or not. McCormick is probably making money, though. Can be very busy at happy hour.

    Because HP can't control whether or not their potential tenants move in and complete their own construction. HP's capital has nothing to do with Lucky Strike securing enough capital to complete construction of the bowling alley.

    It sat empty and sad for a long time, but I haven't been over that way in a while, so I'm not sure.

    Yeah, a year or more ago.

    There are no Burger Kings in downtown. There are several Smoothie Kings, though.

    But I love the Smoothie King!

    What's up with the dueling pianos? I was looking forward to that as well.

    Eh, it could be worse.

    It would be a mess, because it would be hard to remember exactly when a slot changed, not to mention that the slots sometimes change sizes as slots are merged or divided.

    I like when he said Houston used to be known for bad air and water, but we're working on it. ...seems like its taking us a long time!

    That's a lot better than Houston Metropolitan, at least.

    Is the narrator commissioner the father of County Judge Robert Eckels who went on to become a partner at Fulbright & Jaworski?

    The "hanging tree" shown in the video still exists right next to Bayou Place. There's a historical marker there.

    Skateboarders are prohibited in the Plaza, and while surely you may have seen some, its fairly strictly enforced.

    I concur, and neither are wanted! Bad tourists, I sentence you all to 10 years hard tourist labor in Old Town Spring and suburban outlet malls!

    I go to Canino's but a closer one would be nice.

    That was well prior to the current downtown activity. I wasn't really too interested in an either/or debate. You were the one with the chip on your shoulder about farmer's markets. I don't care one way or the other about sausage on a stick.
  22. kylejack
    Midtown is not downtown. It is Midtown. Convenience stores do not sell produce. And I find it interesting that you complain about high prices at farmer's markets when the alternative is the Randall's in Midtown, where they have legalized financial rape. Sausage on a stick is a concession item meant to be eaten on the street at a festival. A farmer's market (which also sells meat, didn't you know?) sells groceries that you can take home and put in your cupboard.

    Sausage on a stick is not real lively urban environment. Groceries are. Downtown currently has no place to buy any groceries at all if you don't count the Midtown Randall's and various convenience stores.
  24. kylejack
    I want local interaction, not tourism. Farmer's market is better than festival for that.
  25. kylejack
    It does??
