		<description><![CDATA[Downtown Houston since 1998 has rebuilt, revitalized, rehabilitated and reshaped over half its streets at no small cost in dollars and some inconvenience to the businesses and residents.

		<description><![CDATA[During the eight years of street reconstruction in downtown Houston Texas we found many historic street bricks that paved the early streets of Houston in the mid-1800s. The City&#8217;s policy was to save the bricks for use in future projects. Two projects have been identified and so there was a need to sort the stored [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many issues were considered when the City of Houston wanted to change parking meters. The change was to be from a mixture of single/dual space meters on a single post along with modern multi-space meters&#8211;recently added in the Cotswold area of downtown&#8211;to the more sophisticated solar-powered, micro-processor controlled, wifi networked, parking meter.
