601 Diane RoseOne day we will look like NYC if we don't manage this properly today. Cicumventing the spirit of our ordinances does nothing for our city.

604 margaret storerIn addition to the set back and lot size, we need to designate it as single family as well as a size restriction to preserve the look of a house with front, back and side yards. Also people need to adhere to the style that is here instead of erecting stucco, flag stone and metal buildings.

610 Elizabeth SteinHouston likes to call itself a "world-class city". Until it gets serious about preserving its past, the characterization will continue to ring hollow.

617 Patricia RathbunPlease preserve the architectural relevance (and cultural identity) of this neighborhood by preventing condominiums and other multi-family developments from being built. The condominiums being built in these areas are inappropriate for the neighborhoods and ugly. Their very presence detracts from the beauty of the existing properties in the area.

620 Dian AustinWe have enough new condos in the city. Can't we preserve our older neighborhoods?
621 steve byarsPlease, for the sake of Houston's built environment and neighborhood cohesiveness, DO NOT REPLAT this or any other inner city lots/blocks,
622 Olivia HennesseyPlease stop destroying the only charming and historic part of Houston. Tourists love this part of town and it is seen by many in and out of town as one of the only redeeming features of this otherwise cold concrete jungle!!! Stop the horrible trend of destroying and encourage renovation and restoration before we lose all of our history in this city!

628 Carlos PerezWhy can't we preserve anything in this city? Why is it so easy for developers to erase any bit of identity this city has left? This is a HUGE shame!

631 AnonymousIt is very difficult to find any heritage left in Houston. I guess the condos, strips centers and Walmarts being built now will be our legacy and define our culture. I do not do business with any company that blights our landscapes with "new" development just to have a "newer strip center" or that use billboards as a form of marketing. If we all embraced this philosophy they wouldn't profit from this useless development that is stripping Houston of its culture and heritage. Be sure to visit Rice Village ( the old Rice Village - like the Variety store) for it will be gone next. River Oaks and West U, too!

643 Ken and Anne CulottaWe wholeheartedly support the efforts of Historic Houston, the Heights Association and other concerned residents of our neighborhood to see this loophole in the PVLS ordinance closed quickly an definitively. The Heights and surrounding inner city neighborhoods are quickly becoming too densely populated for existing or planned infrastructure to support, and the character of the neighborhood, so carefully preserved and nurtured by so many of us over the last twenty years or more and one of the real draws of the Heights, is increasingly threatened. The City's promise was to restrict the ability of developers to run roughshod over the consensus of the neighbors. That promise has thus far not been fulfilled, and an important constituency has taken notice that nothing is being done to follow through on the promise. KSC

648 naomi salazarI grew up in the Heights I knew the ladies who lived in the house. Its heart breaking to know anyone who tear down the old house. Mr doyle was a big realtor, in the heights and the old house is a big part of Houston
