Meyer: Washington Avenue and a real-world dilemma
NEAL MEYER blogs about Washington Avenue, development, and his real-world dilemma:
The planners are going to gripe about how City codes dictate how much parking there is supposed to be. They're going to gripe about strip centers and shopping malls full of acres of concrete. They're going to gripe about off street parking, a lack of sidewalks, and all the rest of it. But it still doesn't erase the dilemma I find myself in - whether to pull the trigger and buy?
Real business decisions involving real money and real consequences for Houston's future are made every single day in the city, even as urban planners produce their colorful maps and plot dress-code redesigns and imagine new bureaucracies to "help" Houstonians with such decisions. The perspective of decisionmakers like Meyer is worth considering every once in a while.
