[edit] Houston, Texas

Before making substantive changes to an article, please seek a consensus. Also, remember that information added to an article must be verifiable. When adding new text, especially controversial new text, it is good form to include a footnote reference to a reliable source. This not only helps to avoid extensive discussion and bickering, it also improves the entire article in a general sense. --Evb-wiki 21:13, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Well I don't have time for that, all I know is that an article about a city should represent the people of the city.--Mphifer254 21:16, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Please go to Talk:Houston, Texas and discuss with the other editors of the article. Thank you, Postoak 21:24, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Want to tell me why I'm blocked?--Mphifer254 22:51, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s): I reconsidered and decided to unblock both parties involved for now, but either may be blocked again if this particular edit is reverted again. I'd rather have both of you able to discuss on the talk page than stuck by a block. Even if you feel you are "right", remember that revert-warring advances nothing and just disrupts the project. Request handled by: Ginkgo100talk 00:02, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Also, please note that changing something back is considered a reversion. --Ginkgo100^talk 00:02, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s): Autoblock of 68.201.118.165 lifted or expired. Also removed an autoblock set on Evb. Contrary to what we might intuitively expect, releasing the block on an account won't always release the autoblock on their IP -- apologies for the confusion.

[edit] Downtown

Were you downtown at the "Main Event" during the Super Bowl? What a party. I was hoping that this would happen every weekend. I'm a native Houstonian and never saw anything like it, except maybe for the "Rendezvous Houston" concert. Downtown has changed for the better (I think) since the light rail started. A new urban park is being built between Houston Center and the convention center. I also hear that a new multi-block shopping/retail/residential center is being built.

Oh, well I don't get down there much but when I do it always seems somewhat empty in some parts. --68.201.118.165 00:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I used to go downtown maybe 1-2 times a years before light rail. I hear it gets packed on Friday and Saturday nights. Here is the new development I mentioned. [1] Postoak 00:38, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

It looks alright. I think I saw the report on this project on the news. The only other major project I've heard about is that knew skyscraper that is supposed to be built in Greenway Plaza.--68.201.118.165 01:01, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

This will also transform downtown [2]. I haven't heard about a new tower in Greenway Plaza. Maybe this is going where the old HISD building was demolished? Apartments and condo are being built everywhere in that area. Postoak 01:24, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it's even been proposed yet. I just saw a design model a while back on a developer's website. I'll try to find the link.--68.201.118.165 01:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
