I’m excited about a new donut shop over here in the Med Center area. I’m getting a little tired of just Shipley’s. As long as prices are decent and donuts are good… they’ll be getting my family’s business. Now we just need an awesome Vietnamese place!
I expect TMC donuts to be sensible, heart-healthy, diabetes-friendly, and blood pressure-neutral.
All for the school districts duplicating what works with their buildings. Latest versions, faux or not, are much more attractive than what was cranked-out a few decades ago. Nobody has unlimited funds, and smart functional space makes sense. Seems the architects, with their obvious vested interest, are the most vocal opponents.
Those Click2Houston commentators are almost as great as the good folks over here. Almost.
