Almeda Rd, Medical Center

My brother lives here, and the location is great: near the Medical Center, near the major freeways, near downtown. But there is always traffic on this street. Dining is few and far between, and they are usually fast food places such as Subway, there aren't any real sit down dining restaurants nearby. There are several apartment complexes on Almeda, so there isn't much of an opportunity for families to get to know one another as you would a residential area. The street itself is in bad shape: several pot holes and bumps which can be hard on your car. But it is right across the street from Hermann Park, so that is a plus. There are frequently joggers and dog walkers in the area.
