Well... not really a geyser, just a busted water main on a plot of land that will soon be a HUGE mixed use development at the intersection of Kirby and Westheimer. The new development will combine multi-story condo living with retail space and will take up a couple of blocks!

Here is the current plot of land after a gas station, restaurant, tennis courts with club, three seperate free-standing business and a gym were all demolished. You can see the geyser in the background!!
