Guy's name was Dwayne and he taught Isshinryu Karate. I have friend who trained there thru HS and College that became a black belt. And they did move down to near Sonny's BBQ at some point. I think he closed after that.
And before you guys make fun of his name being Dwayne, you wouldn't make fun of him to his face. Bro knew how to brawl.

I just remember K&B, Delchamps, Little Caesars, and a video rental store.
There was a record store there for a while too. I used to buy 45s there.

We used to hit that Little Caesars after school at Millerville. They had a deal with a little square of pizza and some crazy bread. We were kings!!
Tony’s Donuts across the street had a honeybun that was about a foot in diameter with those crispy dough edges for 35 cents. My senior year, every morning on my way to Belaire, I’d stop and get one for breakfast.

My brother had the honor of answering phones for him at his school there.. I also worked for the video store franchise in that Millerville shopping center.

I remember a Zack's frozen yogurt shop in that shopping center when I was a kid in the 80s

I miss that Hong Kong chinese takeout that used to be in there.
The owners moved to to the Rouses Supermarket in Blue Bonnet and Perkins. It is China Bear

I also grew up across from River Oaks and was all over that area on our bikes.

I lived in the Woodlands from 79-88. My mom used to say all the time that we were easy to find. Follow the bikes.

The dance studio was "Dance by Trudie". My 2 daughters went there for years.
