cwrm4 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Saw a neat glimpse of old Houston today...Houston Ave is being resurfaced north of Washington, and they've actually ground the old pavement down to the original bricks. There's a good stretch of it that you can drive on the old bricks. The pavers surprisingly look to be in great condition.The bricks may already be paved over by now...but if not, worth a look. How great an avenue it must have been before the Bail Bondsmen moved in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdude Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Cool. Thanks for bringing it up. I'll check it out tomorrow. There's still a couple of brick-paved streets in the Montrose as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 It was half paved this afternoon. It will probably be gone by lunchtime tomorrow. But, it was very cool looking at the bricks the last few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
