mollusk Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Panacea or not, it's an amenity, just as a freeway is. You can move about from Katy prairie into town without a freeway, but the 2 football field wide I-10 is an amenity to Katyvillians who commute into town, it makes the area more valuable. So too does light rail, we're only just starting to really see that value being realized, but to deny that the value is there, is just as silly as saying there is no value in freeways. In a fit of transitory dyslexia, I first read that as "Katyvillains." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Z Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 OP has a point on the rail's immediate vicinity. It can be sketchy in most areas, especially at night. Downtown is worse IMO. Walking near Reef has a different feel than walking 100 yards away near the rail at night unless there is an event at Reliant. The Superblock should help. Overall, it's improved over the years, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
