COMMENT OF THE DAY: HOW TO POUR CROWDS INTO HOUSTON PAVILIONS “. . . What usually gets me downtown is free weekend street parking, beer specials at certain bars, and discounted or free (handed-down) arts and Astros tickets. Oh – and formerly, the Angelika. I like to think most middle-class Houstonians share my tastes, summed up by: cheap Mexican food and free parking. Put that into the mix and the number of visitors would double.” [Superdave, commenting on Comment of the Day: How Tough Would It Be To Turn Houston Pavilions Inside Out?]
Yes! Free parking alone would get me there, but I’ve paid $20 and $10 to park there the last two times I’ve been. Make it free and I’ll be there!
Well put and agreed!
Thank Bill White for introducing parking meters on Saturday! Thank Annise Parker for raising the parking rate!
