The View from Morrison Heights
Fisher Homes is excited to present Morrison Heights, a 36-unit, custom built, luxury mid-rise condominium in Woodland Heights. Completely outfitted with high-end amenities including a fitness facility, community club room, guest suites, controlled access with security monitoring. Residents enjoy having access to the trails at white oak bayou and the views of the picturesque downtown skyline. Terry Fisher, Owner of Fisher Homes, has been making a name for himself over the past eight years in the Houston Heights area, as one of its premier builders. He was named as a finalist for Best Developer in The Leader’s Reader’s Choice Awards for his work on Rutland Street. It is Fisher’s goal to continue to work within the community to enhance the beauty of this great neighborhood. Professionally, Fisher demands accountability and consistency from his team. Every member of his staff has a vested interest in each build from start to finish. What separates Fisher Homes from other builders is not only the custom finishes and features, but the overall quality of the home. When Fisher isn’t working the community, he spends time with his wife and five children. His oldest son has been working side by side with him over the past several summers and even assisted in the design of the mid-rise.

New York (Nov. 19, 2013) — The annual appearance of fruitcake on our nation’s supermarket shelves can mean only one thing: the holidays are upon us. And with that comes the creeping panic over what to give hard-to-buy-for friends and family members. The perfect solution: CityPASS® ticket booklets. Not only do they save you up to half off admission to the top attractions in 11 North American destinations, they beat fruitcake hands down in five important ways: 1. You always know what’s inside: Are those chewy shriveled things candied cherries? Cranberries? Currants? And is that a hint of rum or brandy? Fruitcake ingredients can be a bit of a mystery. But you’ll never wonder what’s inside a CityPASS ticket booklet, which always contains deeply discounted admission to the very best five or six marquee attractions in a given destination: places like the Empire State Building in New York City, Disneyland in Southern California, Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, and San Francisco’s famous cable cars. 2. They’re time savers: You can try buttering up an attraction’s ticket taker with a slice of fruitcake, but the only way you’re guaranteed to skip the queue at many attractions is with a trusty CityPASS ticket booklet, which lets holders save time and bypass the main-entrance ticket line like a VIP. 3. They’re waistline and budget-friendly: What better way to avoid holiday calories than by cutting out the fruitcake and getting a little exercise strolling through museums, aquariums, zoos and historical sites? CityPASS ticket booklets can make that happen. And as good as the booklets are for your waistline, they’re even better for your wallet, saving you up to half off the combined cost of the included admission tickets. 4. People actually like them: Okay, some fruitcakes are bearable, but most are met with a forced smile and an “Oh, you shouldn’t have. No, I mean it. Really! You shouldn’t have.” But the gift of travel is always appreciated. Imagine the memories you’ll help create for your nieces, nephews, siblings, children, coworkers, and friends when you give a CityPASS ticket booklet to one of 11 major North American cities. 5. They’re an antidote for challenging holiday houseguests: An extra large bite of fruitcake may keep Uncle George from regaling you with his peculiar brand of politics for a minute or two, but a CityPASS ticket booklet can keep him out of your hair for days. He’ll be off enjoying the sights and having a ball while you savor some much-needed downtime that you can use for baking, wrapping gifts, decorating, or even just a nap. Once activated (first used), CityPASS ticket booklets are valid for nine consecutive days (14 days for the Southern California CityPASS admission card). They can be purchased online at CityPASS.com or at any of the participating attractions. For more than 15 years, CityPASS ticket booklets have been a premier product for travelers who want to visit a destination’s top attractions while enjoying significant savings of up to 50 percent. CityPASS ticket booklets, which have a 95 percent customer recommendation rating, are available for New York City, Atlanta, Boston, CityPASS® is a registered trademark of City Pass, Inc., Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Southern California and Toronto. For more information, and the exclusive property of City Pass, Inc. visit CityPASS.com.

CityPASS Winter Special Gives Holiday Travelers More Time to Visit Top Attractions While Still Saving Up to Half Off Admission Prices New York, N.Y. (November 12, 2013) — City Pass, the company that packages deeply discounted admission to the top attractions in major North American destinations, has an extra treat for holiday travelers. The annual Winter Special dramatically lengthens each CityPASS® ticket booklet’s traditional nine-day validity period. Beginning Dec. 15, 2013, visitors purchasing or activating previously purchased CityPASS ticket booklets for New York City, Boston, Houston, Philadelphia or Seattle will have up to 75 days (until Feb. 28, 2014) to redeem the included attraction tickets (one use per individual ticket). Typically, once the first admission ticket in a booklet is redeemed, CityPASS holders have nine days in which to use the remaining attraction tickets. Winter Special, however, waives the nine-day rule, extending the usage period considerably. In addition to having more time to enjoy leading attractions, travelers with CityPASS ticket booklets will continue to save up to 50 percent off the cost of purchasing the included attraction tickets separately. CityPASS ticket booklets also save time, allowing users to bypass most mainentrance ticket lines. While visitors have always found CityPASS ticket booklets to be a great deal, the expanded Winter Special usage period also makes the pass attractive to locals who may be hosting friends or family members over the holidays — not to mention looking for ways to entertain the kids over winter break. The Winter Special concept encourages sightseers, both out-of-towners and regional visitors alike, to take their time and explore a city at a leisurely pace. Houston CityPASS Savings: 46 percent Cost: $46 adult | $36 child (3-11) Included Attractions: Space Center Houston (NASA), Downtown Aquarium, Houston Museum of Natural Science, a choice between the Houston Zoo or a Kemah Boardwalk All-Day Ride Pass, and a choice between the Children’s Museum of Houston or the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. CityPASS® is a registered trademark of City Pass, Inc., www.citypass.com/houston and the exclusive property of City Pass, Inc.
