Southwest Houston acreage – never built
This proposed international airport in Houston, just west of Bellaire, was set to be built on acreage owned by Glenn McCarthy. The proposal was eventually abandoned, and Houston’s international airport was built north of the city. The west side acreage was later sold to Frank Sharp, who developed Houston’s Sharpstown neighborhood there.
