The Gulfgate Twin movie theater. Can't remember what the building was in the very top right corner of the triangle.
Edit: My sister thinks the building on the top right in the triangle (corner of Evergreen) was a gas station. Maybe Exxon.
Here's a photo of it, but I don't know when it was taken. Does anyone know if that sign is still there?

Those names sound very familiar to me, think some of them played at a hall on Bissonnet, Bellaire area, in the early to mid '80's. I recall "Beer Bust" night & a live band, when "happy hour" was in full swing. Some years later, I preferred "The Rose", nice club.
I don't recall that hospital. From the aerials, looks like it was designed in the sixties, has atriums. Wish there was a picture of it, somewhere.
Someone was asking about a place called Dot Coffee Shop. Here's something about it:

METRO Ridership Continues To Grow
in Traffic and Transportation
Posted · Edited by chicocasanova
A woman I know in Denver, Colorado said that the Denver city bus sells a one-year ticket. Does Houston Metro also sell that kind?
