Railroad car art residences. Houston, Texas - Brightly Painted Railroad Cars

Followed up on a blurb on this website and finally found the railroad cars on the lot in downtown Houston, corner of Pease and Dowling Streets, roughly east of downtown. Busy intersection and semi-dangerous, near freeways. Great fencing, colorful "woman" statue in front, and a sign, reading "Tim Hootman, Lawyer' with phone number. [Michi Vojta, 08/09/2003]

Houston, Texas - Brightly painted railroad cars, iron giraffes

Near the Flower Man House in Houston, TX are two properties that deserve attention when you're in the neighborhood. At 2402 Pease St., Houston, TX 77003-5238, there is a lot that features three brightly painted railroad cars. We asked Cleveland "Flower Man" Turner if he knew anything about it. He said that he was aware of the railroad cars but didn't know the people in charge of the property.

Less than half a mile away, there is a 2-story olive-colored house between 3106 and 3120 Caroline St. (immediate left of 3106, immediate right of 3120) that features two iron giraffes in the front yard. [John Michael Davison, 06/10/2002]
