No renderings. The plans submitted to the city say that it will be a 7-story structure.

A potential new indoor tennis facility for A&M and the City of Bryan to share at Midtown Park is in discussion.

Quote:

The city of Bryan and Texas A&M are negotiating another major addition to Midtown Park.

Mayor Bobby Gutierrez says a shared indoor tennis facility, which was first brought up during the original design of the Legends Event Center, has the support the A&M system board of regents.

Gutierrez says in addition to providing Bryan residents another location to play tennis, this will give A&M the ability to host S-E-C and NCAA tournaments.

Gutierrez says negotiations include how operations and maintenance costs will be shared.

The 3 indoor courts at Bryan Tennis Center at Austin's Colony are still used by Texas A&M when it's raining. But the building could use some work. It leaks if raining hard…

Had a good friend who did. Said it was a limited menu (very common), great ambiance, very good food. Said it was easily as good as 1860 Italia even with the limited menu with significantly lower volume from crowd noise. For perspective he said the place was packed. I'm going tomorrow.

They will do well. Casa do Brasil quality and NOT 1860 noise level is a winning combo.

Poked my head in Casa Mangiare. It looks nice, like The Republic and the old Veritas had a baby. Very nice looking bar, looks like they'll have an extensive wine list. Planning to go with friends next week.

Speaking of The Republic, we went last night for the first time in a long time. Beautiful inside but highly disappointed in the food and drinks. Will not be going back anytime soon.
