Westwood Updates
Westwood’s Southern Sign and Plantar: The Westwood sign and planter at Woodhaven and Stella Link have been removed to make way for a left-turn lane into the new 169-unit Willowbend Pointe development at the NE corner of Willowbend and Stella Link. The developers initially said they would pay to relocate the existing sign and planter, but we have no current confirmation that is still the case. The existing Westwood sign was too large to meet the new City of Houston Major Thoroughfare viability requirements. The civic club’s Architectural Committee members, Adan Gonzales and Jon Jenkins, are designing a new Westwood sign. Unfortunately, the developer of the new subdivision has not provided a date when the turn-lane will be built so we do not have a target date for the new planter and sign.
