What Makes GreenVUE Transit-Oriented?

San Antonio development firm Embrey Partners Ltd. has started work on a luxury, transit-oriented multifamily development on Greenville Avenue in Richardson near the DART rail line.
What makes the GreenVUE apartments under construction at Greenville Ave. and Collins Blvd. transit-oriented development? Beats me. Other than maybe because it's somewhat near a DART station. More likely, just because the developer uses the description when plugging it.

ADEC at the Eisemann


The Richardson Community Band performed a concert, "A Kaleidoscope of Color," at the Eisemann Center Sunday afternoon featuring the RISD All-District Elementary Choir (ADEC). The band was conducted by George W. Jones, with the RISD's Director of Fine Arts Brian Britt as guest conductor. The choir was directed by Lindy Perez. As usual, the band was enjoyable and the choir delightful.

S2L77: Windsor

Windsor Castle
May 21, 1977
We took a train out to Windsor Castle. "Too many tourists."
Source: Personal travel notes.
Funny how I remember the grand settings in Windsor Castle, the quaint village of Eton, the picturesque River Thames running between them, but I don't remember the tourists. Maybe I should have snapped a photo. ;-)
