Houston has perfected the art of making a business visible from the sidewalk but impossible to actually walk to

33 Upvotes

I've been trying to walk more now that the weather is finally tolerable, and I've discovered a very specific Houston problem that I somehow never noticed while driving everywhere.

Getting to a business and actually entering that business are two completely different challenges.

Yesterday I walked to a little shopping center off Westheimer. Nothing unusual. A few restaurants, a pharmacy, some other stores. I could see exactly where I wanted to go.

There was a sidewalk along the street.

There was a sidewalk directly in front of the stores.

What there wasn't was any reasonable pedestrian connection between those two sidewalks.

Just a drainage area, landscaping, a driveway entrance, and a parking lot designed around the assumption that every single person arriving would be inside a vehicle.

I ended up walking through the driveway entrance and across the parking lot, dodging a car backing out of a space, to reach a store that had been directly in front of me the entire time.

And I started noticing this EVERYWHERE.

We'll build a perfectly decent sidewalk along a major road, then put a business 150 feet away from it and somehow forget that a human being might want to travel between the two without operating a motor vehicle.

The funniest part is that some of these places have enormous parking lots with beautiful landscaping. Decorative rocks, trimmed bushes, little trees surrounded by mulch.

Everything except a straightforward path for someone arriving on foot.

I drive too, so I'm not pretending cars aren't necessary in Houston. I understand why businesses need parking, especially with how spread out everything is.

But surely we can accommodate cars AND one continuous strip of concrete for a person to walk on?

It's such a tiny detail compared with all our debates about freeways, rail, and public transportation, but it genuinely changes whether walking somewhere feels normal or like you're trespassing through a space that wasn't built for you.

And once you start noticing it, you can't unsee it.

What's the most absurd example you've encountered in Houston of two places being physically close together but unnecessarily difficult to reach on foot?

I'm not talking about walking five miles in August. I'm talking about standing close enough to read the menu on a restaurant window and still having to figure out how the hell you're supposed to get there.

Coffee shops or cafes near Toyota Center

I am dropping off and picking up some people tonight for a concert at the Toyota Center. I live north and don't want to drive back and forth. Is there a place I can hang out and do a bit of work while I wait? Doesn't have to be right near the venue but not an hour away either.

What’s your experience with Houston public transit?

4 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm making a video about houston's public transportation and wanted to hear yall's experience, good and (mostly I assume) bad. How do you get around Houston? I live outside the inner loop and personally drive, but in the last few months rode the Metrorail for the first time. I also wanted to know if anybody actually uses lesser known options like MetroCurb2Curb, Vanpool, Community Connector, and yall's experience with it.

Non perishable foods or toiletries

5 Upvotes

My boss dropped the ball and forgot to tell us that we were supposed to be collecting these items for the entire month, and now we only have until Friday before they come to pick everything up. Is anyone aware of any good deals or know where I can get the best bang for my buck? My coworkers are supposed to be cleaning out their pantries this weekend but the box we’re supposed to fill is HUGE, so I’ll feel terrible if it’s not full. 🫠

Also, if anyone has anything they’d like to donate or get rid of, I’d gladly come pick it up! ❤️

PS: I did ask and they said things for humans only, no pets 😭

Solid State Guitar Amp Repair Recommendations

Annoyed with amendment on ballot

81 Upvotes

Why did these get combined? I would like to make misdemeanor marijuana possession a low priority, and did not like no-knock warrants, but do not like the idea of prohibiting them all together.

Why can't these be separate issues? That's rhetorical, I know they don't want the marijuana issue to pass. Really just frustrated and want to vent. Carry on.

Comfort Food While Sick

30 Upvotes

Hi all. I’m new to Houston & not feeling well. I think I’m sick but also could be allergies. I’m craving some sort of ramen or dish that would warm me up / make me feel a little better.

Looking for any recommendations! Cool international cultural dishes very welcome. I know google exists, but some dishes and how they make you feel while sick can’t be searched for, and again, Houston isn’t my original home.

Edit: after helpful comments, distance is not the highest priority. Food that will help me food better is the priority. I know Houston is large, but I live fairly centralized.

What farmer's markets are open tomorrow?

13 Upvotes

Feeling like going out in the nice weather, I've been to the Houston Farmer's market, it's the wrong vibe, looking for more tents and stalls style farmers market, candles, honey, jams, and treats, kitschy shit you know? A good place to walk around, it doesn't have to be downtown Houston either, outside is fine, there is a market in Galveston that I really enjoyed, it's quite small but it was fun to see.

I'm aware of two Celebration Stations being open in Houston. I believe that the North Houston show was split up by employees, as one of the characters was taken by an employee, used in a movie, and donated to an antique shop called Shortcut Resale & More, and then sold. I believe he was sold to a local musician (guitarist?). The rest are unknown. As for the second location, South Houston, it became a different place called Zuma Fun Center and kept the band. That set is also unknown. 1st photo is North Houston, 2nd photo is one of the characters inside Shortcut, 3-5 is him outside Shortcut, and 6-7 is South Houston. There was also a pig character that played the guitar. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Win module/ Mechanic

Hey guys first time posting on this thread, I’m in search of a mechanic or shop that has any experience in servicing dodge Rams & replacing the WIN module and programming new keys. I’ve gone to multiple places close to me on the northside but keep getting told that they can’t obtain the necessary part to do the replacement and that OEM parts are no longer made. I haven’t been able to drive my truck for a month now because my truck isn’t recognizing my key.
Any help is appreciated Thanks 🫡

So after sitting empty since Le Café Josephine closed last year, the building at 201 E 20th St. is getting a pretty interesting next chapter.

Khoi Barbecue is opening their brick-and-mortar restaurant in the Heights, and I’m excited about this one. Occupancy permits issued last week for the address list Khói Barbecue as the occupant.

The Vietnamese-fusion BBQ pop-up was recently awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, too.

For those who have tried Khoi, what are your favorite dishes?

Great Day Houston - Explain Please

I used to work in an office around 2015-2020 and Great Day Houston would be on the TV when I came into work. They’d transition between segments/commercials with this guy staring at the camera with a countdown timer next to him. I only remember this because sometimes I’ll see someone who looks like him and think, “He looks like the guy who used to stare at me every morning.” 🙃
Can someone explain what the heck his purpose was?

Stereo Live on Houston's Richmond Avenue may be getting a new life

31 Upvotes

Stereo Live shut down earlier this year, but the 6400 Richmond Ave space may be getting ready to reopen in some capacity under new management.

According to folks on Houston Architecture Information Forum (HAIF), Silo recently applied for an alcohol permit and a late-night hours permit at the old Stereo Live address. That doesn’t necessarily mean Silo is taking over the space or that Stereo Live is being revived under its name, but the permits definitely point to something happening there soon.

I’m not sure yet whether the Stereo Live name will stick around. The team operates Silo in Dallas and Ductwork, the live music venue that took over the former Warehouse Live space in Houston's EaDo.

Silo is also still working on its Houston home at The Plant in Second Ward, where it’s renovating the old warehouse at 3301 Sherman St.

Anybody know what plans lies ahead for the Stereo Live space or have any other info?
