JJVilla Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) How are you defining "East End" in terms of streets bordering it? There are multiple subset areas which collectively comprise the East side. Please describe. Not sure how familiar you are with that part of town so maybe this is too much? It includes Eastwood and that is where most people I know are/were buying homes. I am actually in one of their picture, even though I was just visiting! According to Eastwood website their (greater) Civic boundaries are Harrisburg, Oldham, Gulf Freeway and Milby but the subdivision is smaller. More information: East End Website, Area Map From Wiki: The East End is bounded on the west by downtown Houston and on the east by the Port of Houston. Buffalo Bayou flows past the site of Harrisburg, an early Texas trading post and seat of government for the Republic of Texas in 1836. Edited September 20, 2010 by JJVilla Quote
Stargaze Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 What's amazing is the influence and notoriety Montrose holds despite its tiny area and population.According to Wolfram Alpha Knowledge Engine, the 77006 population is only 18,875 (based on 2000 census), and barely over 2 square miles.It can be argued that the 'Montrose Area' spills over into adjacent zip codes, but regardless...I agree. The number of older, established and architecturally notable properties add a richness that's hard to ignore. In the time period during which many of these properties were constructed, I would venture that they may have been considered small mansions. Today's sale prices seems to support that notion to some extent. Quote

Today's sale prices seems to support that notion to some extent.Actually, I meant more the cultural or social impact the community has had, but your point is well taken.And a good point it is. In my (admittedly limited) knowledge of the 'hip' or 'cool' or 'trendy' or 'alternative' neighborhoods in many cities, there's an architectural component. It entails an appreciation of something unique, distinctive, and (importantly) overlooked by the mainstream. It's the triumph of the artist over the number cruncher. 1 Quote
TxDave Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Montrose is similar to gay neighborhoods in many cities. They are becoming more upscale and diverse (straight people) while gay people are finding acceptance across the city in many other areas. Good progress overall, but kinda sorry to see the tight-knit community dispersed. Quote

Good progress overall, but kinda sorry to see the tight-knit community dispersed.Montrose is the envy of gay men and women in cities where there is no one neighborhood community predominantly identified as gay oriented. There is a strength that comes from not having to run every individual through a social strainer just to find out who is out there with whom we can relate to and interact. The self discovery of an entire community with which we can identify harkens back to the collective coming out of the closet that occurred in our country post-World War II (see the documentary Before Stonewall). Of course self-preservation is important as well. Sometimes it's not just gay people who are aware of a publicly identified gay neighborhood. Unfortunately, it can make one an easier target when gays are not the only individuals who find it easy to find others of the same persuasion. Being targeted is not a new concept and will happen on some levels whether or not there is a gay-identified community. Back in the 50's (again, see the documentary Before Stonewall) small groups would unite to form a type of defense against would be harassers. Edited October 2, 2010 by Stargaze Quote

sidegate Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 I was in Awash when it was there. I like to think I have a reasonably catholic palate but that was some of the strangest food I've ever had. The ambience left a little to be desired - it was basically an office space with some tables scattered around. It wasn't a great surprise when it went under.... Quote
samagon Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) I guess this view was only of the 'trendy eats' kind of things, no coffee houses, like the Mausoleum on Westheimer and Taft (wish that place had survived, MUCH better atmosphere than Agora imo), or that pizza place that was next door to the Mausoleum where everyone smoked weed on the patio, or taco cabana that is now a smoothie king on Montrose and Westheimer.Lots of things missing here is what I'm sayin' and I guess that was the point, to show the places that have moved in, but that's only half the picture, when you consider all the tat shops and second hand clothing stores, and hole in the wall places that have died as a result of the explosion of gentrification.

I'll go back even further - what about the BBQ place (Texas something Barbecue?) that occupied the spot where Smoothie King is now in the early 80s? Or when Hungry's (then Hungry International) was a couple of blocks further north on lower Westheimer? 1 Quote
crunchtastic Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 well, as long as we're talking olden days, Joe Starr's Omni on the curve! A short lived punk venue in the early 80s. Bambolino's was across the street even then.There was a cool vintage shop in that center next to the U Wash It (next to Poscole now). Back when vintage was few and far between and you got a smelly 50s print dress for $7, not $130.Not sure what it is now, (used to be tats) but there was a barber school across the side street from Mango's. When we had enough money to pay for a haircut, we would go and let a 'student' butcher our hair for $5. I still believe that Big Franks was the highest and best use of the space that later became Ming's and Little Bigs. The Chicago dog don't hesitate. 1 Quote

What is interesting is that it's not quite as essential for local residents today - they are finding acceptance in many more areas all over the city. The locals don't need to rely on it as much as they did 15-20 years ago.Overall that is a good thing, but as you describe, something is lost without the shared experience and acceptance that came from the collective common community.Young people coming out today likely experience acceptance much more easily, but they probably miss out on the shared experience that came from gathering together for support Quote
kdog08 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 So I live in a weird geographic spot in Houston. I live in the southern most portion of Montrose, where the Museum District and the upper class neighborhoods of South Hampton and Broadmore reside several blocks south. If those words mean nothing to you, then I live a few blocks north off a major freeway (US59) that cuts of the weird, poor, and yuppie from the upper middle class and very wealthy.

bachanon Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 some great pictures! Â thanks for sharing. Â it's kinda funny, i see more people on the sidewalks in the woodlands than in your pictures of montrose. Â was it a weekday during the day? Quote
trymahjong Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I love the pictures and glad you came to Avondale. You noticed perhaps that these old house entries are not only "guarded" by the obligatory lions statues, but also gargoyls, african lions and the occasional suleika dog statues as well.      ;}  Quote
