I can understand both sides but I was thinking more traditional. Personally, downtown Houston was becoming very interesting pre Covid compared to similar sun belt cities. It felt like we needed to close part of Main St like they do with 6th street Friday and Saturday to deal with the crowds. I just feel like Dallas and Atlanta are more “Disney”, which is just more of a personal taste thing. I like Houston’s grit, reminds me of New Orleans although they are definitely not the same from an urban perspective.
