sabasushi Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Since I drive by this shopping center (more like a bunch of strip malls, really) at Shephard and Richmond all the time, I have to ask about it. Does that place ever have a name? Does anyone know anything about the place's history? When I looked it up on HCAD (the address is 3800 Farnham St in case anyone wants to look it up), I saw that various buildings there were built between 1955 and 1965 so it definitely isn't a new place. On a related topic since this is in the same area, I happened to look at the HCAD record for 3801 Farnham St and saw the building there was built in 1935. When I cross-referenced the address, it turns out that 59 Diner is at the same address. That surprised me, as the building didn't look old at all. Does anyone know anything about the building? I knew that the restaurant used to be called Phil's restaurant before it became 59 Diner, but that's all I know about it. Oh, and if anyone has old photos of either area, I'd love to see 'em.
