My father lived at the Inn at the BallPark across the street from Minute Maid for about 6 months from September-Feb. It was deserted. We had to drive to the Galleria at night to go out.

That's a dead end of downtown agreed. From Inn At The Ballpark (now Westin)I would head to the other side of 59 into East Downtown. A couple of bars there with a Lucky's and a Little Woodrows. Things are picking up there since the soccer stadium went up. And with apartments being built across the street from Union Station I would expect even more stuff to open in the near future. So you went all the way to the Galleria? I guess you missed all of the bars in Midtown? Galleria has the fine dining no doubt so if you want high end you're going to the right place. Midtown along Bagby and West Grey there are tons of bars and casual places to eat. I like the Galleria area but is too far for me to go out on a regular basis.
