How about through River Oaks?
Yep, NIMBY is live and well with that one. This brings up the other quandary faced with mass transit. Spread cities like Houston are a nightmare to develop mass transit in and around. We've now 7 or 8 different work centers and everything still runs downtown. Its the infrastructure cost of mass transit that makes it difficult. Instead of bike racks on the buses, some of them need to pull trailers for bikes as the number of folks wanting to use bikes to commute from the transit center to work will be able to do so.
