    Another entertaining source is the 4-episode PSB series, "Houston, Remember When". That sure brings bach a flood of memories.

    Someone purchased that area at the end of 14th 1/2 about 5 or 6 years ago (I think). I have watched as a few houses went up. But I haven

    Actually, that looks like it could have been an alternative plan for the Tenneco Building. OK, so I know it

    On the dead end part of 14th there were three lots bought by the same party and five houses are being built there. I lived at the second house from the bayou (next to the corrugated tin house), and we had the chance to buy the two houses next to us toward Beall. Just another missed opportunity. As to the house on 14th

    When I was at Reagan, Long Point was the hot area for crusing from Wirt Rd westward. It's hard to look at that area now and believe that was the case.

    What you see happening in Shady Acres is simply the tip of the iceberg in my opinion. I was flabbergasted when a friend informed me that she bought a 3-story house on 25th near Beall for over $300K. I told her,

    If Reliant Stadium were to be used for Olympic events, all advertisement would be removed unless the advertiser is an official sponsor of the Olympics. For example, the Gallery Furniture sign would have to come down unless Mac pays to be the "Official Annoying Commercial of the Olympics"!

    I like to think of it as Houston is one of the world's best-kept secrets. There are things about Houston that you can't see in newspapers or National magazines or news broadcasts. You won

    If I am not mistaken, the diesel train at Herman Park is the same one that ran at Playland Park on South Main at Murworth. I rode that train countless times out there, and I have ridden it at Herman Park quite a few times. It is still a thrill to ride it. So, smile when you call it a

    The place at 11th and Yale used to be an S&H Green Stamp redemption store. I think it started out as Top Value, but later it was Green Stamp.

    When a "happening bar" is no longer happening, it becomes a beer joint. I'm not sure where the dry line is, but there is a bar called Shiloh Club on Studewood just south of 14th that has been there for well over 10 years. I doubt if Berryhill is in a dry area.

    When I was a small kid the streetcar tracks were still visible along Heights Blvd. I used to play on the tracks and watched the trains operate along Nicholson. I would love to see METRO construct commuter rail lines along these same routes.
