  1. I believe that is just a service access point. No signaling and typically the gates are locked on both sides.
  2. The article made my blood boil(another well written piece by the ledger). They live on city streets and you have as much right to that access point as they have to oppose it. If they don't like it, buy the streets at market price from the city and take the maintenance off our books. I like the idea the city had of building the access point and placing no-parking signs all over the damn place.
  3. for reference the Zillow index for 28205 is 296K.
  4. I have had some business related dealings in Houston and have family that currently live there. All of the walk-able or "15 minute neighborhoods" I am aware of are exceptionally expensive. My favorite Neighborhood in the vein of adaptive reuse and pedestrian minded development is The Heights and the Zillow index on that place is over 450k.
  5. Devil Advocate: Virtual school and Work from home could remove the seasonality of leisure travel. Maybe?
  6. That dual clutch is supposed to be "Porsche" Good. I'd rather row my own but at some point when the auto is better we have to admit to the nostalgia of it all.
  7. As long as there are more amenities in urban areas than in suburban areas, the trend will continue. I think a big part of the eagerness now to live in the burbs is because many of the amenities that justified the urban sacrifice have not been available for a while. Once they come back the trend will likely continue.
  8. The Plaza/Parkwood/Caldwell name a more deadly(per trip) route in the city. Built for speed with narrow sidewalks, minimized crossings and blind curves. Road diets here will save lives. Well that's the gist of what I keep emailing to the city.
  9. I mean we'll have higher than usual vacancy and I expect that to get slightly worse before it gets better so I don't expect people being hard-up for an apartment. But I think the rebound will be dramatic and "Insane" in the sense that we'll have many times more people moving than usual. My unsubstantiated hot take is that there will be shortages as a result of slowed or paused projects but that's probably a few years out.
  10. If things go as expected, the rental market in this city is going to be insane starting Late Winter into Spring. My org is very recent grad heavy and 8 of about 14 gave up their leases in May/June to work elsewhere while we are still in the WFH posture.
  11. The 'A' Frame house? I don't think I've seen a new build A frame house in my life time.
  12. I ran by this project yesterday.. This picture doesn't do the size of this house justice. Looks like it takes up 95% of the lot.
