"The direction of this is really so that we can no longer stay behind the hedges and do more for the Houston community." Sounds like more of a satellite campus. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntheKnowHouston Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Late August has an opening date. Houston Chronicle reports the restaurant will open to the public next week on March 25. The restaurant is the latest dining concept from Lucille's Hospitality Group. It's located on the ground floor of the Ion at 4201 Main St, Suite 120. More on the restaurant's design from the article published today: But the airy space doesn’t erase the Sears history completely, with the dining room retaining some of the original terrazzo tiles in its faded shades of pink and gray with cracks and dents. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/food-culture/restaurants-bars/article/late-august-restaurant-opening-18978208.php 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankfurt, Germany has a pathway along the river with pleached (trained/trimmed) sycamores along it where they provide a consistent canopy. It is incredible. https://www.123rf.com/photo_46444405_park-alley-with-a-view-of-frankfurt-am-main-downtown-western-germany.html 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I believe we saw the same treatment of Sycamore's in Wiesbaden near a Casino. They had flat tops almost like umbrellas but really shaded and beautiful. I wish they would have trained the ones downtown like that. Sycamores are beautiful but they are an extremely difficult tree to clean up after. The bark falls off, the large round sees fall off and break up, the huge leaves fall. It's constant maintenance. When the bark does fall the new white bark is really beautiful 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
