  1. full article Alex Brennan-Martin said he wanted to put to rest the rumor that Brennan’s of Houston would never reopen. It will, in October, 13 months after a fire resulting from Hurricane Ike gutted the historical Midtown structure, home for 42 years of one of Houston’s most popular dining venues. Standing under a sign above Brennan’s Smith Street entrance that read “Thank You Houston! See Ya’ll Soon!” Brennan-Martin, accompanied by Houston Mayor Bill White, announced that the restaurant will be restored and is expected to start serving turtle soup and Bananas Foster to loyal customers in October. Not only will the eatery reopen, providing 125 new jobs for the city, the Brennan’s brand will expand in Houston with two new ventures. Caf

  3. loma linda's are usually puffy. they fry em there. edit: the uniformity of that henry's one is unique.
  4. san felipe between the loop and chimney rock. (closer to chimney rock)
  5. just spoke with a manager who works there. he said they actually need more space than they have currently. ideally they'd like two facilities instead of the one.
  6. if the postal service still needs a fairly large facility built there, it will be interesting to see what else can be built adjoining. this just seems like a lame attempt to get some cash prior to a crash.
  7. 13 just had a report said it will be used for rodeo parking. in the near future it is scheduled to be used as a music venue. evidently there was some concert there last yr.
  8. unless they can combine it with other sidewalk projects like they did downtown, most likely they'll only do those along the line.
  9. shouldn't this be an empty food court vs an abandoned one?
  10. i use it. i am a minority though.
  11. i try to give em credit.
  12. what's wrong with taking the bus?
  13. this is starting to sounds like a post in the stuff white people like book. Public Transportation That Is Not a Bus White people all support the idea of public transportation and will be happy to tell you about how the subways and streetcars/trams have helped to energize cities like Chicago and Portland. They will tell you all about the energy and cost savigns of having people abandon their cars for public transportation and how they hope that one day they can live in a city where they will be car-free. At this point, you are probably thinking about the massive number of buses that serve your city and how you have never seen a white person riding them. To a white person a bus is essentially a giant minivan that continually stops to pick up progressively smellier people. You should never, ever point this out to a white person. It will make them recognize that they might not love public transportation as much as they thought, and then they will feel sad.
  14. LOL i guess we have different definitions of strong, smart, independent women
  15. the killed businesses on main, make me think otherwise.
  16. during a show isn't the issue. the times i've been there, the restaurant portion has been pretty dead.
