It’s not arenas that destroy neighborhoods. It’s the giant parking crater and the flood of drunk drivers that frequently accompany events. A compact, transit accessible arena with no parking can be lovely. Also, if the taxpayers pay for it they should own it.

@theSurlyBiker Idk, maybe urban facade? To me the “city” seems to be entirely suburban and lacks anything that resembles an urban core that I’ve seen other places. Downtown feels more like a suburban office park than a city center, it got tall buildings but it doesn’t have a soul

If I were a mayor, and nearly every civic association from a neighborhood came to city hall to speak against my decision, I would assume it’s not popular with the community. Regardless of what Sue Lovell says

It’s very clear whitmire doesn’t know how to run anything without having someone to blame. If these things are such big issues why is he so uninformed on the state of the city he’s trying to run? Why is he not getting reports on the state of the city?

So whitmire was lying about GRB not having power? What possible reason could he have to attack the Astros then? How would an anti-baseball stance that ever be a smart move

Interesting. Mayor Whitmire said that George R Brown had no power yesterday and it's bad that Minute Maid Park did. I just learned that GRB did have power yesterday and people were being served food. I was sent this photo showing Texas Mesquite Grill giving over 3,000 burgers

For those that don’t follow transportation in Houston, the university line was at 4th and goal. Then in the zeroth hour, we swapped coaches and they decided to punt because they were being paid by the other team to lose the game

The thing they don’t tell you is a bike lane on mcgowen would connect to Columbia Tap and Austin St and would make a nice network loop in midtown and 3rd ward and provide easier access to Hermann park for 3rd ward residents

Love the fake equity concerns, nobody is stoping you from putting in 3ft AND 10ft sidewalks, if places need sidewalks put them in nobody is stoping you. Don’t block already funded projects for no good reason

. @whitmire_john has already removed medians/curbs on Houston Ave & ordered a review of bike lanes/features of the new 11th street redesign in the Heights. Is he rolling back progress? He invited the Ed Board to his neighborhood to share his vision.
