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

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.

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.

The Heights as a neighborhood is, at this point, mostly dull. A happening bar should liven this up.
When a "happening bar" is no longer happening, it becomes a beer joint.
