Bellaire not walkable? You don’t say.
Re: the final link to the Allen Parkway article:
I recall someone telling me once that Gus Wortham, when building the AG buildings, had parts of Allen Parkway re-engineered so that traffic noise would be reduced and/or the view from his office improved. Does anyone know about this?
He also was buried close enough to keep an eye on his building. Back when AIG was solvent. Haha..
