Actually, I thought just the opposite...that she did a good job of diversifying the neighborhoods. Hotel Zaza is in the Museum District, t'afia & Julia's are in Midtown, West End Bike Shop is in the Heights, Hotel Icon is Downtown, Hotel Derek is near the Galleria, she even mentioned Project Row Houses in the 3rd Ward. I loved the "Oddball Day" suggestions. Although, Montrose is mentioned a few more times, but rightfully so! :-) At least she didn't mention NASA!

There isn't a section in this article that does not include Montrose. She may have done her homework... Just with someone who was extremely proud of Montrose. Not that this area should go unnoticed, better yet it SHOULD be highlighted. However, there is more to Houston than Montrose. I am not entirely offended as I live off Studemont. I just do not believe the article to be full rounded.

Yep, not a bad article! I'm not sure what she means when she refers to the "newly renovated Memorial Park," though — maybe the Sabine to Bagby Promenade?
