Thanks for the link on the flu. It’s not real estate, but it’s very informative.
Re: Visitor’s Guide
I actually enjoy driving over the Sidney Sherman bridge over the Ship Channel. When a friend’s parents came to town (they were staying in Seabrook) drove back into the city, we were sure to make a trip over the bridge. :) It’s an impressive view!
I would definitely agree with avoiding the chemical plants on 225. Bleh.
also re: visitor’s guide
i disagree with their take on the big, lit-up st. joseph’s cross. i think it’s ballsy as hell, and it makes an interesting addition to the skyline.
@ The Visitor’s Guide,
Does that Balke guy really get paid to write that stuff?
Houston is Houston, warts and all. He needs to go someplace that’s *really* bad.
I don’t get it…why is the Texas at the top?
