Beautiful shot, that lighting is great.
If I'm not mistaken, you're in the vacant lot used in the Chevy commercial to build a youth baseball diamond.
Thanks!
Um, I'm not sure where I was.... after looking at Google Maps, I think I was somewhere off of N. Main near Hogan & South streets.

Here's a shot of downtown I took on Sunday, December 12, 2010. It was such a gorgeous day!

EPIC FALL!

Then there were thousands of us Sunday for Tour de Houston. Criminals all.
Don't be like that.
I'm talking about everyday traffic and the fact that bicycles are considered moving vehicles and are supposed to adhere to the rules of the road.
-
Registered bikes? Ha!
Cyclists break the law when they run red lights and stop signs too!

I don't think liquor will help this place. The staff was already drunk to begin with, this will just make it easier for them.
I'll never forget the time I went to the old location and the help was drinking from a whiskey bottle behind the counter. Classy.
Some places need to just remain closed.

Ming's had the best bubbly wrapper eggrolls. All the other Chinese restaurants I eat at serve those crappy, wafer thin, spring roll type eggrolls.
Does Kam's or 888 have bubbly wrapper eggrolls or those other weak kind?
Ming's closing is truly sad news.

OK, maybe it's a bit cheesey, but there's nothing wrong with trying to improve the look of the area. Good luck to them.
I don't think it's necessary to improve an already affluent area. Take this money and improve the area from Holcombe to the Reliant area. Then they'd be doing some good. But of course, this is a project of the UKD and not a city project.

Fence, big fence.

Just your luck (in the Heights) what if it was going to be their corporate office. LOL!

OMG!! LOL!! The photoshopped picture with the star in the intersection is horrible! They didn't want to mess with the shadow of the utility pole or the SUV in the intersection, so they cut the image short. Didn't even attempt to blend the graphic with the pavement. Too funny! If you're gonna do something like this, do it right, make it look good. That's just my attitude when it comes to graphics.
When I first read this and before I went to the site, I thought they were going to name the intersections after sports figures or something, but they are just putting stars with the street names in the intersection. It's not really sports related, is it?
Actually, all this is going to do is create construction traffic on a super busy street for a few years. Thanks, yeah, we want this.

I've seen bluebonnets in front of an image of the state of Texas!

I've been there. I like the downstairs bar.

- Oh, the trials and tribulations of living in The Heights! I've had my share of noisy, ignorant neighbors while living there, I certainly do not miss it one single bit. Good luck!

That's just lovely.
Midtown is the perfect place for franchised bars and restaurants. It's like a little suburb in the city.
-
Yes! Pay those exorbitant hotel and rental car taxes! Bring 'em on! Yay for city revenue!

I like to at least wear a light jacket in December...

I got to meet the owner of 2727 Kirby today. Very nice guy. We talked for about 10-15 minutes, I don't have any insider info, other than this project is a labor of love for him and that he wants to build a beautiful landmark for The Upper Kirby area and Houston. I honestly wish him the best. He did mention that they are going to install a webcam soon! So look forward to that! I know I will.

I am going to go up to the top and take some pics. I will try my best to post them.
From the top of the crane? Like all covert/ninja style or what?

Thief.
What is it that I'm stealing?
