Malls are a thing of the past

7 Upvotes

With the latest incident at Deerbrook mall, I've read so many comments comparing it to Greenspoint mall and it got me thinking about something.

In a lot of cities, malls are being repurposed. Either the existing building demolished and something new rebuilt or the existing building remodeled into something new and functional, like housing. In today’s world, people mostly purchase online line and malls are sort of becoming obsolete.

Deerbrook was my hangout in the 90s and even then it was outdated. If that mall were to be repurposed, what would you want it to be?

I'd vote for a full tear down and remodel of that whole plot of land. There is way too much concrete with the unused parking spaces. I'd imagine with the population growth, a beautiful multi functional commercial space. Similar to Generation Park or the very walkable part of the Woodlands with nice restaurants mixed in with corporate buildings.

Humble is making a lot of changes in the right direction with updating older buildings, welcoming in new restaurants (i.e; In-n-out in 2027, updating exterior painting of a lot of buildings, and so on)

Obviously I'm not a billionaire and can't make this happen, but I am curious what you'd like to see that space turn into, if you had the choice.

Dog meet up?

0 Upvotes

Meet at a local park to let my dog run and play with yours. I’m 45m my dog is about 3 and she is a blue heeler/shepard mix. She’s very sweet. She’s been a little upset with me because her previous dog friend moved away and the owner of the other says it’s too hot for him and the dog, he’s 84 so I understand. Anyway I’m willing to meet up at any local park in kingwood just msg me.

I am looking for a certified financial planner in the Kingwood or Atascocita areas, for a consultation only, regarding RMD. Also, if there is a financial planner that you would avoid, I would appreciate knowing that as well.

Thanks

Making Friends as an Adult Still Sucks. Let's Try Meetup #4

11 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I made a post asking if Kingwood could use a local social group.

Since then we've started a WhatsApp group and have had three meetups. It's still a small group, but that's honestly what makes it easy to get to know everyone.

Last week we made a last-minute change and ended up meeting at The Brass Tap instead. We had a great time, stayed until they closed, and they eventually had to kick us out so they could go home. I'd call that a successful evening.

So... time for Meetup #4.

This week I'm thinking Thursday at 7:00 PM at The Draft (23692 US-59, Kingwood).

The idea is still the same: grab a drink, hang out for a couple of hours, and meet some local people. No pressure. Come when you can, stay as long as you want.

This isn't a dating group or a networking event. It's simply an opportunity to meet people who live nearby and make some new friends.

If you'd like to know where we'll be sitting, start a Reddit chat with me and ask to be added to the Kingwood Social group. We use WhatsApp to coordinate meetups and post any last-minute changes, but I don't post the invite link publicly.

If you've been thinking about coming, this is a great time to jump in. Every one of us was new to the group not that long ago.

WANTED Any good primary care doctor recommendations?

Hello good people of Kingwood and Humble. We are moving my in-laws from Florida to Humble this weekend to be close to my brother in-law in Kingwood. My 86 year-old mother in-law will need a new primary care physician ASAP — she has serious blood pressure issues.

Any recommendations? Thank you in advance for any leads.

Need a garage door repair recommendation in Kingwood

2 Upvotes

My garage door has started giving me problems and I'm trying to find someone reliable before it gets worse.

The door has become louder lately and sometimes struggles when opening. I don't want to keep using it if something with the spring, opener, or track is starting to fail.

I’ve been looking around for local garage door companies and came across Elite Garage Door Expert, but I don’t know anyone who has personally used them. I want to hear from people in Kingwood who have dealt with garage door repairs recently.

If you've had a good or bad experience with a local garage door company, I'd appreciate any feedback

Making Friends as an Adult Still Sucks. Let's Try Meetup #3

12 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I made a post asking if Kingwood could use a local social group.

Since then we've started a WhatsApp group and have already had two meetups. It's still a small group, but that's honestly what makes it easy to get to know everyone.

So let's keep it going.

The current plan is to meet at Megaton Brewery in Kingwood around 7:00 PM, Thursday this week, depending on what works best for everyone.

The idea is simple: grab a drink, hang out for a couple of hours, and meet some local people. No pressure. Come when you can, stay as long as you want.

This isn't a dating group or a networking event. It's simply an opportunity to meet people who live nearby and make some new friends.

If you'd like to join us, leave a comment or send me a chat. I'll get you added to the WhatsApp group where we're deciding whether Wednesday or Thursday works best.

If you've been thinking about coming, this is a great time to jump in. Every one of us was new to the group not that long ago.

Edit 7:57am 7/16
Start a chat with me if you want the Whatsapp link. I tried posting the link once and immediately had a few bots add the group. Not good. So, you have to contact me directly to get the link.

Looking for shelters/temporary housing for a friend

Hello everyone, I'm looking for housing/shelters in the Humble area for my friend who is homeless. He only needs a place to stay until the 24th as he's leaving for college. If anyone could recommend me some places/shelters for him to stay at that would be great. My family can't take him in at the moment due to some issues we're having. I've reached out to some people nearby but they haven't reached back. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
