Former church in the Heights to become single family property By Michael Sudhalter michael@theleadernews.com
Woodland Heights resident Chris Dray didn’t want to wake up one day, look across the street and see town homes or condominiums at 2928 Michaux. So, the commercial real estate agent represented a Heights couple in buying the 10,000 square foot unrestrict-
ed lot that once belonged to a Seventh Day Adventist Church in the Heights. “I knew somebody wanted to put a high rise there, because it’s not restricted in that area,” said Dray, an agent with Moody Rambin. “I wanted to make sure we got the right neighbors.” Dray declined when asked how much the home sold
for, but a sales price range on HAR.com had the home listed between $827,001 and $947,000. Efforts to contact representatives from the church community were unsuccessful, but Dray said the church’s decision to sell was due to the fact See DEVELOPMENT, P. 2B

Spotlight
– Motorists on Ella Blvd. have taken a keen interest in the activity at 3510 Ella Blvd., the space owned by Private Mini-Storage, which has been operating in the area for a few years. Now, according to leasing agent Danny McCormack with NewQuest Properties, there is 8,500 of square feet adjacent to the storage units that is being developed as a shopping center. “We don’t have any contracts yet, but there has been a lot of interest,” said McCormack. He said that he’s heard from a lot of people in the area about the retail development which will hopefully attract a restaurant or two in addition to all types of retail. A St. Pius X graduate, McCormack is very familiar with the area and excited to be working on the project. He said the owners would be able to deliver space to interested parties around October. It would then be up to the leasee to build out the space to fit their needs. The sign says for sale or lease, but the building will not be for sale. For more information, contact McCormack at 281-477-4367 or dmccormack@newquest.com.
Whether you are buying, selling or building choose the agent that’s right for you.

Eclectic Home and Coda, 345 W. 19th St. in the Heights, has a wide variety of home decorations. (Submitted photo)
Eclectic gives customers lots of decoration options By Michael Sudhalter michael@theleadernews.com
Heights residents Dale Johnson and Colby Weems opened Eclectic Home 13 years ago, and then added “Coda” to the 345 W. 19th St. location four years ago. “Coda was the combination of our names, but it’s also a music term, meaning coming close to the end (of a song),” which meant people could finalize their gift of home decor,” Johnson said. When Eclectic started, they mostly had traditional home decor and gift items, but now it’s more of a balance between the traditional and contemporary. Among the most popular items are
Art Glass, Sand Art, lamps and accessories. Johnson is familiar with both styles. He had previously worked as an accountant and moonlighted in Eclectic’s building as an antiques dealer. “The people managing the store decided they didn’t want to manage it, and I bought it,” Johnson said. Johnson grew up working in his family’s hardware store, so working with the public and having a strong business sense were two of the things he picked up during that time. He said one of the misconceptions about Eclectic is that it’s not affordable.
“A lot of people walk by and think it’s too expensive,” Johnson said. “They walk out with something because they realize it wasn’t expensive.” An end table, for example, may range from $59-$1,100, and Johnson said it’s common for home decorators to shop at Eclectic for their clients. Home decor usually isn’t seasonal, but Eclectic does bring in special decorations for the Christmas season. Customers from all over Greater Houston frequent the business, and Johnson said the addition of several restaurants on the street has been a boost.

When Candlelight Plaza residents Margo and Chris Balat opened Chris’ Alterations and Dry Cleaning 35 years ago, they knew it would still be in business today. “People need alterations,” Margo said. “Customer service is important to us. Not everybody is honest and treats people the way they want to be treated.” The Balats originally had their business at Pinemont and Alba, but 5.5 years ago, they moved to their current location at 1765 W. 34th St. “I like it better,” Margo said. “It’s easier to tell the customers where the location is.” The Balats service individual consumers, and

Alabama Furniture’s been a fixture in the Heights
��������������
For The Leader
In 1991, Sherri Enroth was only 21 years old when she was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug. Against the odds, the ambitious Houstonian launched what would become one of the Heights area’s most successful resale furniture businesses: Alabama Furniture. Today, a loyal customer base is happy Enroth ignored her nay-sayers, and followed her dream. Originally, the young woman signed a lease for a 1,200square-foot storefront on Alabama Ave. in Montrose, hence the name. The first few months of the business were rough for the entrepreneur, but in a year or two, the store was rocking along and inventory was piled high. So high, in fact, it limited display space. Enroth soon realized she needed a bigger store. In 1996, she finally found one. “It was a wonderful location on Yale St. in the Heights,” Enroth explained. “It was much bigger, 14,000 square feet, and a better value. I like Montrose, but I have always loved the Heights. I have never regretted the move. The Heights is

visiting when it was still in Montrose. “We are also known for friendly service,” added Enroth. “I think that is a big part of it. We pride ourselves in going the distance; in helping everyone find what works best for them, through both budget and design,” Enroth stated. Ramon Gonzales has been a customer for 15 years. Gonzales is a professional property manager, and often responsible for staging model rental units. He has learned to count on the team at Alabama for help. “One year, I might need antiques for a model. The next year, it might be traditional or
an awesome, awesome community,” she concluded with a smile. Alabama Furniture is not the shabby, shadowy resale store to which many have grown accustomed. Alabama’s selection is often full of unique, one-of-akind items, and appears almost curated. The selection is responsible for the store’s reputation for quality at value pricing. The inventory itself comes from a variety sources including new, unsold merchandise, scratch and dent, private estates, and consignment. Over the years, Alabama Furniture has developed many loyal customers, some of whom started
modern, sleek,” Gonzales stated, laughing out loud. “It doesn’t matter. Sherri always comes through.” “I am amazed by the highend quality she has, and the price. A few years ago, I was shopping for a leather sectional and she had one, and it was $4,000 less than I would have paid anywhere else – and it was in mint condition,” Gonzales added. “In fact, I bought my house in the Heights, after Alabama Furniture moved there. I love the Heights,” the good-humored Gonzales stated. “And I love Alabama Furniture.”

school, said Robert Sands, HISD Officer of Construction and Facility Services. The Energy Institute, the first high school of its kind in the United States, is designed to prepare students for careers in the various fields that comprise the Energy sector. The school, which opened last summer at 812 W. 28th St. in the site of the former Hold-
en Elementary School, only had freshmen in 2013-14. It will add one grade per year until it has freshmen through seniors in 2016-17. Sands said there are no current plans for the campus at W. 28th St., but it will likely become a center for professional development or an elementary school with a small enrollment.

In the late 1970s, Chris was working for a tailor, when he decided it would be good for the couple to start their own business. Over the years, they’ve had customers from Oak Forest, Garden Oaks, the Heights,
North Houston and beyond. “Meeting people and making friends” has been an important part of being in business for the couple, who contract with Heights Cleaners and North Shepherd Cleaners to have customers’ clothes cleaned. They
do all types of clothes and any material, including leather and jeans. In addition to the alteration services, Margo sells handcrafted Christian items made of Olive Wood to support her elderly father in Jerusalem.

How you can help ‘Fix Houston’ By Molly Sue McGillicutty
Did you know that Friends For Life joined in a movement last summer to help spay/ neuter as many animals in Houston’s low-income areas as possible? This first-of-itskind initiative for Houston has helped countless families get the animals in their lives fixed for free. While Friends For Life and other area rescue groups and shelters do the leg-work for this initiative, there’s lots you can do to help as well. For instance, a donation of $2,500 funds a 25 cat surgery day, or on a more budget-friendly scale, a donation of $100 funds surgery and vaccination for one cat. The group also needs traps and trapping supplies in order to catch the feral cats who benefit greatly from the free service. If you are able to donate a trap, that would help immensely. Contact the shelter at 713-863-9835 to find out how to purchase a trap. Another great way to help is by donating canned food to the shelter. Brands like Friskies, Meow Mix and Whiskas smell the yummiest to cats - which
makes it easier to get them in the trap. Please drop all canned food off to the Friends For Life lobby at 107 E. 22nd St. As a spokesperson for Friends For Life points out, one of the most beneficial outcomes of this initiative is that people who were once suspicious of shelters and overwhelmed by animals now know that Friends For Life (and other groups) are a resource. “Conversations are happening. Litters are not happening. That’s the way to Fix Houston.” Heatstroke in dogs Do you know the signs of an over-heated dog? If your dog is panting excessively, has an increased heart rate, a bright red tongue, thick and sticky saliva, weakness and/or dizziness, he might be suffering from heatstroke. What should you do? Get him out of the heat, first and foremost, then wet him with cool (not frigid) water and circulate some air for him (fanning). If he’s still not himself in a few minutes, go visit the vet. Heatstroke can cause seizures, coma, cardiac arrest, and death, so it’s nothing to ignore.

Let me suggest you consider adding to your calendar some of these particularly worthwhile breakfast programs we’ve got lined up over the coming months. In June we’ll hear from Sylvia Garcia, the only current elected official to have served in leadership positions at all three regional government levels, as City Controller, County Commissioner, and now State Senator. In July we will have a representative from the Federal Reserve discuss money issues and interest rates, subjects that profoundly affect us all, both personally and professionally.

though part of the focus is certainly on our speakers. In September, however the Ambassadors Committee is planning a high-energy meeting completely devoted to business networking, which will also become an annual event. Then in October we’ll host Harris County Judge Ed Emmett who oversees one of the largest government entities in the nation and is arguably the most influential public official in our area. And in November we’re pleased to welcome back one of our most requested past speakers, Ken Jones of the Wolff Center for Entrepreneurship at the University Of Houston who always shares valuable tips for building your business. Whether you’re a Chamber member or not, you’re welcome at our Breakfast Connections, held at 6:45 a.m. the second Thursday each month at the Sheraton Brookhollow. We’d love to have you join us, just call our office to reserve you place. I’m confident you’ll enjoy yourself and find it well worth your time.

Spanish Flower Restaurant serving Mexican and Tex-Mex specialties for 35 years Spanish Flower Restaurant will be celebrating their 35th year in business on July 3. They have enjoyed a reputation far beyond other neighborhood restaurants as the place to go for a middle of the night hankering for TexMex and Mexican specialties or dessert and coffee after an evening out. This vast restaurant, located at 4701 North Main is always humming. The new owners have been making continuous improvements in the structure and decorations of the building for a while now. They are from a region of Mexico where they use beautiful stone to build inside and out. You will see this stone inside the restaurant on the walls and other decor. They now have a full service bar area where you can enjoy a casual drink with friends or just stop by during Happy Hour and let the traffic move on while you enjoy
a Tequila drink made with a great Tequila that is also from the region of Mexico where they lived. They have stocked these upscale brands and have created some excellent new drinks such as the Tamarinda Margarita rimed with Tajin instead of salt, similar to how you would treat Mango fruit or you might use pepper and sugar because of the tartness of the fruit drink. In an effort to meet customer satisfaction they have also created an Express Menu that is served Monday thru Friday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. The Express Menu has more combinations of entrees and the portions are somewhat smaller than larger portions on the regular menu. Some of the favorites listed are Chicken Tarragon, Chicken Tortilla Soup, Enchilada Trio and more. Of course the old favorites on the regular menu are always
available such as enchiladas, tacos, tamales, traditional mole, menudo, caldos (soups) and sizzling grilled platters of meats and shrimp served individually or family style. And don’t forget the chile con queso and nachos. If you have any room left for dessert, you won’t be disappointed. They offer Flan, Fried Ice Cream, Sopapillas, Tres Leches Cake, Strawberry Cheesecake and one of the favorites Pastel De Elote topped with cajeta and vanilla ice cream. Spanish Flower offers their great food for you to share at home, with friends, at private parties and corporate parties or they have a large dining room that you can reserve for group gatherings, organization/meetings, birthdays, anniversaries or whatever you want to celebrate.

Private promises of state and federal funding - even notice that funds had been approved - were not enough to convince White Oak Bayou Association (WOBA) that one foot of bikeway would ever actually be built. “We had heard it all before,” said Jim Pulliam, chairman of WOBA’s Bikeway Committee.

Neighborhood residents share ideas for summer fun By Betsy Denson
more. The Heights Life’s Viula Torgerson joined Afton Swim Club this summer with her family. “A lot of Heights families are members,” she said. “We can’t wait to just relax and lay low some days. The splash pad at Discovery Green is another nearby attraction we enjoy during the heat.” Justine Valdes from Oak Forest said that she and her husband have been talking about their summer bucket list a lot lately. “We want to take a day off in the middle of the week and visit the zoo and adjacent splash pad,” she said. “We also would like to take the boys to the beach.” Oak Forest’s Dana Gallegos wants to take her kids to check out the Showboat Drive-In Movie Theater in Hockley and Carrie Murphy has Palm Beach at Moody Gardens, the Splash Pad at Jaycee Park, Surfside Beach

While not everyone may be out of school for summer, the vacation spirit runs strong over the next few months. One way to get everyone in on the planning is to make a family bucket list. Here are some of the items that Leader readers have added to theirs. Garden Oaks’ Candice Croker said they love meeting Austin friends over in Brenham. “We have ice cream at Blue Bell Creamery, take a Blue Bell tour, then swim at the Brenham Aquatic Center, run around the cool Fireman’s Park down the road, and then everyone naps all the way home,” she said. Julie Osterman from Candlelight Estates is going to tour “cool area splash pads,” including the Zoo, Discovery Green, Jaycee Park and
A visit to area splash pads is one of the must-do items for families this summer.
with a stop at the Crocodile Encounter in Angleton and the Sea Center Texas in Lake Jackson on her list. Candlelight Plaza’s Terri Devin is expecting a baby over the summer but still wants to take her other two children to Schlitterbahn or Splash Town in Spring.
Of course in addition to on-thego fun, there are opportunities for some imaginative downtime. Angela Pennington from The Young & Restless Resale shop, 3468 Ella Blvd., is hosting a Book Swap on Wednesdays this summer. From 10 a.m.-noon, you can bring up to five books to swap for “new” ones, for kids of all ages and adults too. The Heights Candy Bar, 833 Studewood, is hosting a Summer Reading & Writing Contest. Grades K-8 are invited to read a certain number of books and then write a candy-related poem or short story inspired by one of the books they have read. All entries must be received by 5 p.m. on August 5 and winners will be announced August 15. Details and prize information available at facebook. com/heightscandybar. On the gaming front, the board
game group that Kara Hagen organized at Oak Forest Library, 1349 W 43rd St., a few years ago is back for summer. From 1-3 p.m. on Tuesdays, participants can bring their own games or share with others. Parents are expected to stay with their children while they play. For more information see https://www.facebook. com/groups/teamtabletop/. Speaking of libraries, the Houston Public Library has their summer reading program underway. The theme this year is “Your Space to Dream.” Visit http://www.houstonlibrary. org/summer to register and see what special programs are available at area libraries. If you take a fun field trip or have ideas for more summer fun, The Leader wants to hear about it. E-mail betsy@theleadernews.com.
Lutheran High North names new Waltrip makes the ‘Wright’ baseball, boys basketball coaches choice for football coach By Michael Sudhalter michael@theleadernews.com
Lutheran High North went near and far in selecting its new baseball and boys basketball coaches, respectively. The Lions hired Garden Oaks resident Andy Moore to coach its baseball team. Moore has extensive experience coaching youth baseball in the Garden Oaks area. LHN’s new boys basketball coach is Brandon Johnson, who has been an assistant coach at several Division I programs, including Auburn, Tennessee State and UTSan Antonio. Both sports will have their third coach in as many years. All of LHN’s teams will make the move from TAPPS 4A to TAPPS 3A this season. TAPPS 3A is more reflective of the school’s current enrollment. The LHN baseball team was led by parent Homer Garza in 2012, and last season, athletic director/ football coach Nathan Robbins stepped in as interim coach. “I will miss it – it’s an awfully fun sport to coach,” Robbins said. “Now, I’ll have the ability to concentrate on athletics and coach-

Johnson
ing football. It’s really good for the school.” The Lions won their final game of the 2014 season, defeating Mount Carmel Academy, after going winless in 2013. Moore is currently the president of baseball at Oaks Dads Club and re-started the long dormant baseball program at St. Rose of Lima. His term expires soon as the president of baseball at ODC, but he plans on balancing his duties at St. Rose, with his new responsibilities at LHN. “I’ve only met a handful of the kids who are coming back, but I know a lot of the kids who are coming into the program,” Moore said. “We want to create a good foundation of basic structure for the team.” Johnson succeeds Creighton
Runnels, an assistant football coach who served as the interim boys basketball coach last season. Johnson arrived in Houston because of his connection to former Houston Rockets player and San Antonio Spurs coach John Lucas, who hosts basketball camps in the Houston area. As part of his work with Lucas, Johnson has helped train some of the top prospects in the NBA Draft. Some of those workouts are held in the LHN gym, which led to his interest in the vacancy. Johnson is working on finishing his graduate degree at SMU’s Perkins School of Theology. His goal, however, is to take what he learns and apply it to basketball, rather than becoming a pastor. “Coaching is my ministry,” Johnson said. “This is an opportunity to minister through coaching. It’s what I feel called to do.” For five years, Johnson was an assistant at Auburn University and became familiar with the strategy of the Tigers’ SEC rival, University of Florida among other programs. “What I’ve been successful with is uptempo style,” Johnson said.

By Michael Sudhalter michael@theleadernews.com
Todd Wright has more than 20 years of football coaching experience, but he said his first head coaching job will be a special experience. Wright was hired as Waltrip’s head football coach last week, pending Houston ISD board approval. “I want the kids to know we’ll be here for them every day,” Wright said. “The coaches aren’t coming here for the next job. We’re excited about being here.” Wright, 45, comes to Waltrip from The Woodlands College Park where he was a defensive coordinator for the past five seasons at the Class 5A school. “This opportunity came open, and it has great potential,” Wright said. “I’ve been working for years to become a head coach. I had no thought of not accepting it.” Wright succeeds Milton Dailey, who coached the Rams over the past two seasons but resigned last month due to health reasons. Dailey led the Rams to their fifth consecutive playoff appearance last season. Because of the addition of a Class 6A, Waltrip will be reclassified from 4A to 5A, but most of their district will remain the same.
Archrival and defending 4A-21 champion Reagan will move up to 6A, and former 3A power Yates will join Waltrip in 5A. Wright’s background is primarily on the defensive side of the ball, and he plans on adding longtime offensive coordinator Wayne Wheeler, who most recently coached at Humble Summer Creek, to run the Rams’ offense. Wright was a defensive coordinator at Klein Oak and New Caney. His tenure at Klein Oak included a period of time when another school in the district opened, and enrollment split. “Todd does it by the book, and he’ll take care of business,” said Klein Oak head football coach David Smith. “We had to be very creative in what we were doing (when he coached at Oak), and he can be very creative.” Wright, a native of Stillwater, Okla., was a placekicker at the University of Arkansas during the Razorbacks’ final seasons in the Southwest Conference. After college, he served as an assistant college coach for the first decade of his career at Rice, the U.S. Naval Academy and Utah State. Wright will be one of three new head coaches in The Leader area this fall, joining St. Pius’ Stephen Hill and Scarborough’s Ajani Sanders.
