Very Hitchcockian pic. Of the large cities I've visited in the states, Houston was the least interesting. Indeed it's downtown makes Atlanta seem vibrant. We spent an hour trying to find a restuarant that didn't serve fast food- ultimately we settled for a sandwich bar. We asked a security guard why is was so quiet and he told us it was saturday.. err..okay thanks. The downtown seemed very small and definitely not cosmopolitan. No mass transit doesn't help the vistors either as most of the intersting sites are in the burbs. If you don't have a car you're screwed. The skyline from a distance is imposing however and it does have a few notable buildings. But as an urban experience I can think of a dozen US cities and few Canadian ones that are much more interesting.
