Oops

Ah, Houston.

The city that just has trouble doing much of anything right these days.

Given the resources being expended on the great light rail experiment (boondoggle?), one would think planners might have thought a little more about the sidewalks.

Ah well.

(01-24-03) I should clarify that I'm generally a rail fan, and the boondoggle comment is meant more as criticism of the way projects are generally awarded and managed in Houston (i.e. the old boy crony network) than as any statement on rail's merits. I'm rather looking forward to experiencing DART firsthand in Dallas this weekend.
