Avossos Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Don't know and I don't particularly care.Alright. I care because it sounded like it could go by my neighborhood. Not a fan of exposing 1st or 6th ward to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chi-Char-Hou-Dal Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 went to Wooster's Garden last night. Liked it and found the prices reasonable. http://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/12-11-14-new-midtown-bar-vows-to-be-non-snooty-and-unpretentious-there-goes-the-neighborhood/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trymahjong Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Vanderbilt - 3704 Fannin St.Estimated to open in December 2014. First 2 floors will be a Twin Peaks style sports bar and third floor will be a lounge.Helping boost up the Mid-Main area.I remember when it was the "Route 66" the redo wasn't bad-- all the tables were uniquely made from recycled stuff- along the same lines at the tables inside Hot Tops salon on Montrose.I wonder if it was the same artist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you didn't see in the comments: https://fatproperty.app.box.com/s/63mgm4wxv1uzdun2k2u0 I'm sure the interior before photos were the same. Once renovation began, they found rot under everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillip_white Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Anybody know what's planned at the former BMW detailing shop at Gray and Caroline? They built the new location down the street, but I'm not sure if it's because the owner forced them out to develop. They've been clearing the lot for the past week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will all be cemented more or less so they can park more inventory there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLan34 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Seriously... what is going on with that thing. It didn't used to be fenced off... They are having trouble with their contractors. It is unfortunate to see this park closed off for what I think is close to 1.5 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
