WOW Roundabout Initiative, Inc

I like that there is an initiative to make Houston more unique… a pocket park here, a cool light fixture there and a round-​about for a busy intersection. Cool.
It does make getting to Shipley’s difficult and if you are in the circle when there is someone who has never been in a circle, be patient.
It is what makes our city awesome.

WOW is kinda right if you only mean Westcott on Washington. I personally think this roundabout is the circle of hell. I have spent many an evening circling it asking myself why I had missed Westcott… oh wrong turn. Go back and make some three sixties.
These upside down legs for a side table /​sculpture will now direct you to Westcott to Memorial to 610. YAY. I don’t need your stinkin street sign! But at (what I’ve heard from David N) a $ 2.6 mil price tag?
Maybe just put in a street sign next time. Not quite sure why this location deserves this type of attention.

While reading through the latest edition of Papercity, I saw an article about the recently opened WOW, Washington Avenue on Westcott. It is a green space with a metal Light garden brought to us by sculptor Tim Glover. The project has began well over 14 years ago and is finally almost at it’s completion. The space itself is a bit underwhelming considering the funding and time that has gone into this project. But I guess plans and projects like this has a lot of red tape to go through. But overall, it was just way too small, I was expecting to be WOWed, but I was like meh.
The lights at night are cool, but not mind blowing. Glad we have stuff like this in Houston, but was hoping for more.
Also btw the Unilocal maps is wrong, it is actually at the roundabout off washington right when it hits westcott, not at I-​10.
