Nope Deer Park, proper east of Center street. My skin is too fair for Deepwater. [/quote]
Actually building my clinic in Deer park off Center street and San Augustine [/quote]
What are the details of this? Opening your own place? What happened to your partnership?[/quote]
This is part of the partnership, my own occupational clinic.
We started another LLC CORE occupational medicine and the clinic will be the hub for the business. It falls under the umbrella of the CORE corp with 5 other businesses. I will be 25% owner with 3 other partners of the CORE Corp. [/quote]
Is that the Deer Park Family clinic that is expanding on the northwest corner of the intersection?
[/quote]
No sir that is my only competition in town.
We are about 2 blocks away, behind Baytown Seafood and Curves.
Sign is not up yet.

Derek you working out at Curves again?
[/quote]
Every day.
Damn child bearing hips get me everytime. [/quote]
Then you need to stop going by the donut store next door to the curves.
Well, there’s one less reason to visit Houston. The problem with this city is that if anything starts to look like it might be historic, people want it torn down. This is why we can’t have nice things.[/quote]
So taking out a $250,000,000 loan and then only getting back $10,000 a year is not an investment. If this building is such a great investment then there would have been investors lining up to get into this deal. This is a money pit, and it needs to be torn down.

Agreed.
But I am not the sentimental type. [/quote]
It is not about sentiments. It is about this property is just decaying every day. Has not been used since 1999. It is time to let it go. It really has no function. If you want a convention center then build a convention center. We already have the George R. Brown.

What is it with this attitude about “if shit looks ugly, destroy it”? The Astrodome could have been used for something else other than a convention center. (We have plenty of those) On Average, it would only cost tax payers a staggering $8 each to renovate it. Plus, it has significant importance, aesthetically and historically. Yeah, it looks like shit but what else do we Houstonians have? St. Louis has the Arches, San Francisco has the Golden Gate Bridge, what the Hell would we have after we destroy the only thing that symbolizes the city?

Given that it’s too hard to build a statue to 110% humidity, mold and mildew is invisible, and endless traffic jams on endless elevated freeways are pretty mundane, I’m thinking Houston should build a giant statue of a ravenous West-Nile Virus carrying mosquito, given there is nothing else notable about Houston.

I used to think the same about Houston until I moved here 4 years ago. Its like many big cities, inside the loop can be elbows to assholes but the surrounding suburbs are actually really cool. I live down in Kemah and I cant even remember the last time I was inside the loop.
I have been out west, I will take the humidity over living in a sand oven.

Having a symbol does not make the city less of a city. If someone wants to renovate it then let them come up with the money to fix it. I am tired of the government spending more and more of my hard earned dollars to benefit another rich person. The Dome has served its purpose, and now it is time to go. The Astrodome has not been a symbol of Houston for more than 2 decades.
