tierwestah Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) when i'm back home and walking on campus at TSU, i always wondered if i would pass by GREYSTONE08- he doesn't post at this forum anymore though! But he was the only one i knew of on here that went to TSU and that's right down the street by where my ol' home is!

hindesky Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) I also encountered @cspwal taking pictures of the tower crane removal at the Marriott Marquis but at the time I didn't know it was him until he posted the pictures. We were both taking almost the same pics. Edited April 27, 2020 by hindesky 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Thanks for the cringe y’all. Appreciate 15yo me from the past being bumped. I’ve met a few more since then. There was an unofficial HAIF meet up around 2010 or 2011 I can’t remember. Then I met Naviguesser and decided that was enough HAIF members for a lifetime. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avossos at the mat pour for The Preston (saved best for last 😀) FIFY I have only met 2 or 3... Obviously Highrise Tower at Preston mat pour I forget his handle, but another guy at the RDA tour of 609 Main Also an occasional poster, employee for Lovett... also forget the name / handle.

Highrise Tower Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Today I met @Urbannizer Urb and met in the TMC and then went to Allen Parkway to snap pictures of all the construction. I had fun. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbannizer Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Been an active member since 09’ and @Highrise Tower is the first HAIFer I’ve met in person haha. He noticed I was in town via Instagram. It was fun, wish I had more time. Would like to meet other members in the future. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLWM8609 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Turns out I've known @Specwriterfrom another organization since before I joined HAIF. It wasn't until a few years ago that we put two and two together and realized it and met up for lunch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope all is well with you. I don't believe I know Firebird 65 but he is very familiar with the Aldine area where I grew up. I would not be surprised to learn that we have mutual acquaintances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyf Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I've met Firebird 65, met up with him to do research downtown, nice guy and very knowledgeable. We lived in the same neighborhood growing up, but with our age differences and living several streets over we never met. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highrise Tower Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 @Executive cleaning ECC was fun to meet. Hope to see you soon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChannelTwoNews Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I met @Jax at the demolition of the Crowne Plaza in the Medical Center ages ago... but that's about the only person I've actually been aware of from the site in person somewhere. I've sent messages back and forth with @SpaceGhost and tried to assist with some of the things he's wanted to use for his website from my old video tapes, if that counts. Probably been others as I've seen others shooting at construction sites over the years, but I never asked since they generally seemed to be in a hurry or otherwise involved. Hopefully someday I can meet more of you! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder the last time there was an official HAIF meet? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder the last time there was an official HAIF meet? There has only been one "official" HAIF meeting, and that was a moderators event when the web site was sold about five years ago. But there have been probably a dozen unofficial HAIF meet-ups organized by people on HAIF. It's been my observation that if a HAIFer sets a time and place, other tend to show up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
