Thousands of people headed to downtown Houston Saturday to check out the old post office that has been transformed into a food hall and concert venue.

HOUSTON - There's a new vibe on 401 Franklin Street. The old Barbara Jordan Post Office has been transformed into POST Houston -- a food hall with a massive rooftop park and more.

"The building will also evolve so there will be a coworking space coming next week even a music venue ... 5,000 people ... 713 music hall," architect and partner Jason Long said.

The developers bought the building in 2015.

"I think it's really going to help to draw to people downtown and connect people to the bayous," Long said.

For the grand opening on Saturday, thousands of Houstonians wanted to see what the redeveloped building was about.

"I was a temporary former employee for the Postal Service and I thought it is good to see what they did for 401 Franklin," Houstonian James Bickley said.

"I think it has a lot of potential. I saw there is some development that still has to happen. But I think it's really nice," Ivan Martinez said.

Many people took advantage of those new massive stairs and soaked in picture-perfect views of the Houston skyline.

"I think it's a good indication that people are interested. The lines are long and people are here and engaged," Kayla Bilger said.

POST Houston will be open Wednesday through Sunday throughout November except for Sunday the 14th. Starting in December, it'll be open seven days a week.

713 Music Hall was supposed to open Saturday but officials said it'll instead open next week.

To most people, a 20-foot shipping container belongs on a cargo vessel, holding goods and materials. To Anuj Datta, it's become a form of rental income.While condominiums and high-rise apartments are some of the hottest commodities, container homes are taking the city by storm. "They're definitely the future for Houston," Datta says.Datta is part of the growing container home trend. These steel buildings, also popping up in the form of restaurants and other hip businesses, such as the Segundo Coffee Lab in the East End and Wi+CoWork in Midtown, are now catching all the attention because they are showing up more as residences.In fact, the global market for container homes is estimated to grow to more than $73 million by 2025. While container homes are no new idea, the demand for shipping containers has skyrocketed as more countries are looking to go green and incorporate more environmentally friendly initiatives.

Here in Bayou City, a handful of the eco-friendly, minimal abodes have sprouted throughout the Third and Fifth Ward areas. Residents can't help but stop and stare at the unique structures.

The homes are built from out-of-use 20-foot or 40-foot steel shipping containers (the ones you typically see on 18-wheelers) that serve as the foundations to these modular homes; it's a way of giving the massive rectangular boxes new life. The customizable aspect, coupled with affordability, made designing a container home a no-brainer for Datta. After getting approval from the city of Houston, Datta chose to have the containers pre-welded and prefabricated in a shop. He then utilized a crane to place each of the refurbished cargo haulers within his EaDo neighborhood, transforming them into a short-term rental property.Datta includes the eclectic property, has been consistently booked for months, and has more than 1,000 guests who've already reserved his tiny home. He attributes it to travelers wanting to experience a form of charming - and tasteful -escapism. The idea to build a custom container home came from Datta's desire to reuse something in a unique way. "They're modular, and we wanted to repurpose it for a different use," he explains.

What adds to the uniqueness of container homes is the construction. Owners can customize the architecture by stacking, welding together and abstract-positioning the shipping containers. Much like regular homes, container homes are fully functional, complete with your commonplace amenities like a living room, kitchenette, and insulation for cooling and heating.

"Container homes are cool because you can do so many different things with them," Datta says.

His container home living area measures roughly 450 square feet, the size of the average studio apartment. "We decided to go the route of not welding separate ones together, but keeping them separate, so that they can function in separate units," he includes. The home is separated between three independent units, with two containers cantilevered over a third, where the two second-floor containers are supported by steel beams.

Albeit small, container homes can set you back $10,000 to $35,000 to build, and they also come with the cost of obtaining city permits, inspections and paying for land ownership.Some may see more value in building a regular house, but where these cargo units may have single-family dwellings beat is simply in price. A container home in the Houston area-depending on design and labor-starts at $31,450.While some container homes remain modest, the growing concept has seen roomy, luxurious multi-level spaces that can reach six-figure values.With consideration to the ongoing pandemic and affordability at the top of many people's lists, the market for container homes is rapidly growing and expected to increase in the coming years, according to real estate experts.

As a rental property owner, Datta says it's nice to be able to offer something unique to people who want to get away, but stay inside city limits. "It brings something different to the table," he concludes.

Over the past decade, single-family homes have been the predominant type of real estate bought and sold in the Houston Heights.

Recently, developers have been purchasing lots and building patio homes and townhomes, but single-family homes are still the most common housing option in the area.

Houston Heights homes were originally built as either one-story bungalow or Victorian-themed structures.

Much like other neighborhoods within Loop 610, the Houston Heights experienced a shift in home styles during the 1990s. New residents bought old properties and proceeded to either renovate historic homes or demolish them in favor of newer, upscale housing.

This created a stir among old-time residents fearing that their community is starting to turn away from its roots.

Deed restrictions were then enforced to preserve The Heights' history, both architecture- and atmosphere-wise. This paved the way to a diverse neighborhood with a healthy mix of history, character, and modern touches.

Houston Heights townhomes are a very popular option to live within a few miles of Downtown Houston for under $400,000.

Many developers have purchased lots in the Houston Heights and begun construction on new townhomes.

The Heights is among the most popular neighborhoods for new townhomes, along with Rice Military, EaDo, and Midtown.

The most common townhomes in the area are in the $300,000 to $600,000 range, with the prices depending on the lot size, style, and location.

Houston Heights Condo Sale Trends

There are a limited number of highrise or midrise condos in the Greater Heights (especially given the neighborhood's preference for deed restrictions and Victorian homes).

Condos within or about 10 minutes from the neighborhood include:

Houston Heights TX History

The Heights traces its roots back to 1891, when Oscar Martin Carter, through the Omaha and South Texas Land Company, purchased 1,756 acres of land a few miles northwest of downtown Houston. O.M. Carter and a number of investors further expended $500,000 into building streets, parks, schools, and utilities.

The neighborhood is one of the first planned communities in Texas and was one of Houston's streetcar suburbs.

The Heights had its own municipality until the City of Houston annexed the neighborhood in 1919.

Growth in the area continued until the 1940s. After World War II, many industrial buildings and factories sprouted around the Heights, and for a period, the community experienced a decline.

Houston Heights real estate started to bounce back during the 1990s due to gentrification (average income increases and average family size decreases). Urban professionals, most of whom worked in Downtown Houston, began purchasing historic homes. Some were renovated, while others were torn down and replaced with newer upscale homes.

Today, Houston Heights is a diverse mix of renovated Victorian-themed houses and new construction single-family homes and townhomes.

Like other redeveloping neighborhoods, commercial establishments are cropping up around the neighborhood, from upscale boutiques to restaurants and bars.

Real estate in The Heights have appreciated significantly over the last 10 years (this community has been one of the fastest appreciating neighborhoods in the Bayou City), with developers building more single-family and townhomes to meet growing demand.

Residents of The Heights need not stray far to find dining, retail, and entertainment options. The Houston Heights Association operates three properties for public use: the Heights City Hall & Fire Station, Donovan Park, and Marmion Park.

Built in 1914, the Historic Heights City Hall & Fire Station is a 7,000-square-foot building. It has been renovated and updated and now serves as a community center and an events venue.

Donovan Park, at 700 Heights Boulevard, features the beautiful The Heights Playground. The playground features elements reminiscent of the community's history: a wooden train and a Victorian-inspired fortress complete with turrets and rope bridges. The park was transformed into what it is today thanks to community efforts and 5 days of work.

Fredericksburg is a small town with old street light, buildings, and one way streets. with no room or want to make streets bigger its a nice town with lots of history

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
From pioneers to presidents.

Fredericksburg's history dates back to the town's founding in 1846 when the first German settlers arrived in the Texas Hill Country. Throughout its 175 years of history, the area has been home to several figures that have shaped the history of the world. In May 2021, Fredericksburg began a year-long celebration of its 175th Anniversary.

Fredericksburg's Pioneer Museum tells the story of those first German immigrants, who suffered hardships and overcame to establish the special destination today.

Native son, Chester W. Nimitz, catapulted Fredericksburg on to the national map commanding the United States Pacific Fleet in World War II - the National Museum of the Pacific War is in town, because of his contributions.

And finally, the United States' 36th President Lyndon Baines Johnson was born in Gillespie County and returned often during his presidency. He is now buried on the ranch he loved so dearly just 20 minutes from Fredericksburg in Stonewall, Texas. The Lyndon B. Johnson State and National Historical Parks tell the story of LBJ's larger than life personality and legacy.

It is because of these factors that Fredericksburg is often mentioned as one of the top places to visit in the United States for history lovers.

The japanese garden is a great place to the enviroment and gives a new look into japanese culture without that 2000 dollar plane ticket

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
HOUSTON - While the Olympics may be an ocean and a few thousand miles away from Texas, Houston has a unique gem to help Houstonians and visitors experience the beauty of Japanese culture.

Not too far of a walk from the Sam Houston Monument is the Japanese Garden, a peaceful oasis carefully crafted and maintained through a unique partnership between the City of Houston, Hermann Park and Houston's Japanese sister city, Chiba.

The entrance to the Japanese Garden is marked by two meaningful black boulders, inscribed with calligraphy by major leaders including the 77th Prime Minister of Japan. A short walk into the Japanese Garden and guests will be greeted by Japanese Black Pine and Japanese Maple trees. Houstonian Gary Nakamura was born in Japan, grew up in Tokyo and now lives in Houston.

"My late father is second-generation Japanese American, so I'm third-generation Japanese American," Nakamura said. "The Japanese Garden is one of my favorite places to come to because it's so beautiful and it is so tranquil."

Beauty, serenity and harmony are a major part of Japanese culture.

"We really respect harmony. Harmony between seasons or nature or human beings," said Yuzuru Nagawa, the Japanese Garden Advisory Committee Chairman.

Nagawa, who also happens to be the vice president of ANA Airlines, lives in Houston but works with horticulture teams as part of his advisory role. Houston's Japanese sister Chiba sends a team of experts to help guide and oversee the maintenance of the Japanese Garden in Houston.

"Annually, they come and make sure that we are staying on track, so it's a living partnership," said Iris Clawson-Davis, Houston's Parks and Rec Dept. senior superintendent of Horticulture.

Nakamura, who is very active in the Japanese American community in Houston is the immediate past president of the Japanese American Citizens League and also served as the Houston-Chiba Sister City Committee from 2009-2013, serves as the official liaison to Chiba City for former Houston mayors Bill White and Annise Parker. Nakamura said there are programs that exist that connect students from Houston and Chiba. The students said to Nakamura that learning about each city, finding commonalities and appreciating new cultures were life-changing for those students. Sister cities are intentionally chosen.

"Many times, the sister cities have something in common. Houston is a port city, Chiba is a port city as well," Nakamura said.

The Japanese horticulture teams send directions and oftentimes plants to grow in the garden. The local Japanese community in Houston welcomes the teams with bento boxes, another element of Japanese culture, the gift of food and energy. As for gardens, the designers pay attention to details both small and large.

"A big aspect of Japanese gardens is creating focal points and viewpoints so the landscapes should have a foreground, middle ground and background," Clawson-Davis said.

The scenes at the Japanese Garden are carefully crafted with breathtaking waterfalls, bridges and stone paths, each stone hand-selected by original Japanese landscape architect, Ken Nakijima, who selected the site and designed it.

Amidst the Japanese pine and blossoming Crepe Myrtles sits a cedarwood tea house.

"It was a gift from the Japanese government but the money was really raised by the Japanese and Japanese American community here in Houston," said Doreen Stoller, Hermann Park Conservancy President.

Another main attraction, the main gate and dry stream garden, designed in part by Japanese landscape architect Terunobu Nakai who worked with a local landscape designer to complete the project. "All of the rocks represent water in the stream and there are boulders that are specifically placed to represent two waterfalls," Stoller said.

Beauty, serenity, harmony -- all elements of Japanese culture, which Houstonians can see, feel and appreciate right here in Houston.

The Japanese Garden is free to the public.

With high-rise towers springing up like mushrooms - and retail and restaurants following in their wake - what was once a "9-to-5" area is now active 24 hours a day.

For years, St. John Frizell would take his son to school in Downtown Brooklyn and feel "confused" by the neighborhood's lack of sit-down restaurants.

"You just had to look up to know what was happening," said Mr. Frizell, the restaurateur who owns Fort Defiance in Red Hook, Brooklyn. "There's cranes everywhere, and these huge towers going up. It's turning into a very dense, sort of a 24-hour-a-day neighborhood instead of the old 9-to-5 neighborhood that we used to be familiar with."

That 9-to-5 reputation was thanks to Downtown Brooklyn's position as the borough's civic center: It is home to Borough Hall, the Brooklyn Municipal Building and several courthouses, along with buildings housing workers from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the city's Department of Education and other services.

But in recent years, things have shifted: Thanks to a 2004 rezoning to allow more residential construction, gleaming high-rise towers have sprung up like mushrooms. According to a 2019 survey by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, a nonprofit development corporation, more than 14,000 residential units have been added to the neighborhood since 2014, and residents are seeking out more retail and restaurant options, along with schools and family-friendly activities.

Now the neighborhood is "much more mixed-use," said Regina Myer, the president of the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership. The offices are still there, but so are retail destinations like City Point, home to an Alamo Drafthouse movie theater, as well as a Target, Trader Joe's and an outpost of the McNally Jackson bookstore chain. DeKalb Market Hall, a food court with more than 40 vendors, including New York institutions like Katz's Delicatessen and Arepa Lady, opened in City Point's basement in 2017.

And in August, a new Ace Hotel opened on Schermerhorn Street, which - thanks to its chic lobby, neo-Brutalist facade (like other Ace properties, it was designed by Roman and Williams) and buzzy ground-floor restaurant - has given the area the official imprimatur of cool.

Even Mr. Frizell is part of that transition to a 24-hour destination: Along with his partners, Sohui Kim and Ben Schneider, he revived the restaurant Gage & Tollner, a Fulton Street institution for decades. Mr. Frizell and his partners were planning to open the restaurant in March 2020; the pandemic put those plans on hold, but it finally opened in April and has since become a fixture for area residents.

"We've developed a group of regulars," Mr. Frizell said. "They're the people that live in the towers nearby, which is really nice. We always thought that that was crucial to the success of the business, too. It can't just be a special-occasion place; it has to be a place where people can come a few times a month."

The boundaries of Downtown Brooklyn are a perpetual subject of debate. Known as the Special Downtown Brooklyn District, the neighborhood sits between Tillary Street to the north, Atlantic Avenue to the south, Clinton Street to the west and Ashland Place to the east. That roughly correlates with the boundaries set by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership's three business improvement districts, with the exception of Atlantic Avenue.

Part of the neighborhood's appeal is that it lies "at the nexus of more idyllic Brooklyn neighborhoods," said Cornelia H. Van Amburg, a real estate agent with Compass who represents a 59-unit condominium on Schermerhorn Street called the Symon. Residents are within walking distance of Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill to the west, and Fort Greene and Prospect Heights to the east.

"It's really like being in the middle of everything," said Ryan Serhant, the real estate broker whose agency, Serhant, is handling sales for Brooklyn Point, a luxury condo tower on Willoughby Street that was developed by Extell, known for its high-end Manhattan properties.

Transit access is also a huge draw: Depending on where you are in the neighborhood, it's a one- or two-stop subway ride to Lower Manhattan. Other transportation options, from buses to Citi Bikes, are abundant.

The housing stock is largely made up of rentals, thanks to the proliferation of the towers built after the 2004 rezoning, many of which include affordable housing - among them, Hub, a 50-story building on Schermerhorn Street with about 600 apartments, and Ava DoBro on Willoughby Street, with more than 800 apartments.

But there are options for buyers, as well. BellTel Lofts was one of the neighborhood's first condo developments when it opened in 2008, Ms. Myer said. Its loft-like apartments are in the former New York Telephone Company headquarters on Bridge Street, a landmark Art Deco building. Smaller boutique properties, like the one Ms. Van Amburg represents, can also be found throughout the neighborhood.

Newer for-sale options include 11 Hoyt, designed by Studio Gang, and Extell's Brooklyn Point, which Mr. Serhant said has drawn Manhattan buyers, thanks to its prices (including a 25-year tax abatement) and its 40,000 square feet of amenities, including private dining and a rooftop pool 700 feet above the City Point development.

And more new development is on the horizon: JDS Development Group is building the borough's first super tall tower at 9 DeKalb Avenue, with condominiums and rental apartments, and farther south, Alloy Development is working on a multibuilding, mixed-use project at 80 Flatbush Avenue, which will have hundreds of apartments and two schools.

As of mid-December, there were 131 properties in Downtown Brooklyn listed for sale on StreetEasy, from a $315,000 co-op studio to a three-story, nine-bedroom townhouse for $4.8 million. The vast majority were condos and co-ops, with just a handful of townhouses for sale, including a turn-of-the-century four-bedroom property on Concord Street, listed for $2.4 million.

The pandemic has affected the number of homes sold in the neighborhood, but not the prices: According to data provided by the real estate appraiser Jonathan Miller, 538 properties sold in 2021, for a median price of $997,885. That's a nearly 10 percent increase over the 2020 median sale price of $910,000, from just 247 properties.

Rental prices are rising, as well. According to data from Zumper, the median rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the area was $3,744 a month in December - a nearly 27 percent increase from the beginning of the year, when the pandemic was still affecting rents.

As of mid-December, there were 158 apartments in Downtown Brooklyn listed for rent on StreetEasy, from a $2,400 studio apartment in an elevator building to a four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom duplex with a wraparound terrace for $25,000 a month.

The vibe in Downtown Brooklyn depends on which of its "little pockets" you're in, Ms. Van Amburg said. On the western side of the neighborhood, near the Brooklyn Heights Historic District, it can feel more residential. Two anchors of this area are Cadman Plaza Park and Columbus Park, where the popular Brooklyn Borough Hall Greenmarket is held on Saturday mornings. Families regularly line up to visit the New York Transit Museum, which reopened in October after closing for more than a year because of the pandemic.

The eastern side, where Flatbush Avenue and Fulton Street converge, is more densely populated, both with residents and with shoppers on Fulton Mall, a commercial thoroughfare with small businesses and national chains (including a Macy's flagship).

The pandemic briefly affected those businesses, and some closed altogether, but overall, "Downtown Brooklyn fared pretty well," Ms. Myer said. According to a recent pedestrian count conducted by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, foot traffic is now about 60 to 70 percent of what it was before the pandemic. "I think that's due to how many people live in Downtown Brooklyn, or want to come and shop in Downtown Brooklyn," she said.

The neighborhood is also part of what the Ms. Myer's organization calls the Brooklyn Cultural District, which includes draws like the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Mark Morris Dance Center and ISSUE Project Room.

Neighborhood schools include P.S. K369 Coy L. Cox, at 383 State Street, with 527 students from kindergarten through high school. P.S. 287 Bailey K. Ashford, at 50 Navy Street, has 119 students from kindergarten through fifth grade.

Several charter schools have recently opened in the area. Brooklyn Prospect, at 80 Willoughby Street, had 416 students during its 2020-2021 academic year, serving kindergarten through fifth grade. During the 2018-2019 school year, 94 percent of parents who were surveyed said they were satisfied with their children's education.

New York University has been expanding its presence in the area, with its Tandon School of Engineering spread across several buildings. The midcentury office building at 370 Jay Street, once the headquarters of what would become the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, will soon become a hub for science and technology for the university's students.

Downtown Brooklyn sits at the convergence of nearly every subway line in the city: The Jay Street-MetroTech station offers the A, C, F and R lines; DeKalb Avenue offers the B, Q and R lines, and the D line at night; the Borough Hall and Nevins Street stations have the 2, 3, 4 and 5 lines; and at Hoyt-Schermerhorn, the G, A and C lines are available.

Bus lines include the B25, B26, B38, B52, B57, B41, B45, B54, B61, B65, B69 and B103. Citi Bike is a major presence in the neighborhood, with plenty of bike-sharing racks on main thoroughfares and side streets.

The Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges connect Manhattan to the neighborhood via Adams Street and Flatbush Avenue. Downtown Brooklyn can also be reached by the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, which links the area with Bay Ridge and Staten Island to the south, and Williamsburg, Queens and the Bronx to the north.

Downtown Brooklyn has been the civic heart of the borough since before it was a borough: In 1835, a tract of land near the waterfront in the newly formed city of Brooklyn was set aside for a municipal building. The Greek Revival building at 209 Joralemon Street that became Brooklyn Borough Hall opened in 1848, and was designated a New York City landmark in 1966.

Recent efforts to preserve neighborhood sites that played a role in the 19th-century abolitionist movement have been successful: In early 2021, a small house at 227 Duffield Street, believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad, was named a city landmark.
