I've lived a little farther east from Eado and East River all of my life. I've been following the developments because I'm so happy that east Houston is finally getting some new development projects... it's about time. Thanks for the video!
I used to live in this area, literally would run past those clubs on my daily runs. Nice dope area, ONLY reason I moved was because I wanted more yard space and land is a premium in that area. Good to see more mix living spaces in the works.
This are used to be old Chinatown, you could probably catch small hints of it, if you're ever walking around the area around the old Kim Hung strip mall. Back in 1992, my father helped with the opening of the Kim Hung shopping center; now its completely closed when the local Asian community moved from old china town to Southwest Houston in the bellaire/sharpstown are. Now that area is slowly moving out towards Sugarland. Kim Son resturant, is probably one of the last few establishments in EaDo that hints at old Chinatown.
Don’t do it. TXDOT wants to build the freeway double the size it is now and send all the I-45 traffic through there in the process. It’s a terrible idea, but TXDOT exists to build highways, and that’s all the know how to do, so they always do it eventually. There is not a real supermarket for miles away. The young people think it’s cool because they don’t know what a bad area it always has been. Many young minority people have been moving into the River Oaks and Upper Kirby areas, and that’s great. That area will always be the best part of town and they should take advantage of that fact too. If you can afford a decent place in EaDo you can afford something in 77019 or 77098. EaDo will be going back downhill just like Midtown did. Any location that was ever a ghetto will never be prime real estate.
I lived in the area for about 4 yrs and never flooded. We had underground parking and only had to move our car up to the top level once I believe, and ultimately it wasn't needed because the parking lot didn't flood. I can't say with 100% certainty because Houston be Houstoning, but I believe it would have to be very very very bad for it to flood.
Anything in Houston can flood. Every time it rains hard someplace new floods that never flooded before. W. Gray has never flooded. Last week I was driving and within ten seconds I realized I had to get to high ground and turned up into a raised driveway. I thought I was safe. Within 30 minutes water was sloshing under my car and the street was full of stranded cars. The reason this flooded for the first time is several whole city blocks a few blocks from there on W. Dallas was leveled and had new apartments built and lots of open land still waiting to be built on. If that had been studied properly they would have known what would happen. Hydrologists know how to deal with development. When all those new projects in EaDo get built everything built before will flood. It happens again and again.

I have been away from my home town for quite a while. Thanks for showing me all the changes and I hoping to move back.
