    Hey ya'll. I own the house at the start of the video. I had never heard of the movie before buying it and nobody told me anything until I started working on it... now everybody in the neighborhood, even little kids, remind me. I'm a preservationist and I want to do everything I can to make sure it doesn't get torn down- both because of the movie, and because it's one of the last small Victorian houses from the original neighborhood. I saw a map from 1916 when Tuam there was '1st Street' and part of a town plot OUTSIDE of Houston, and my house / Lyric house was the bottom left corner of the platt... at the top of the platt was a street called 'Easy Street' that is now underneath I-45! ... a couple of other things I know about the house.. it was where the family that operated a corner store on Drew and Sauer lived for many years... when they made Jason's Lyric, the old lady living there was paid to stay in a hotel for a few weeks while the did the filming. Part of the scenes inside the house were filmed on a set in Hollywood. There is a part where they're in the front room, looking through the dining room, and you see Jason's bedroom is the next room over. However, on this one bedroom house that room would actually be the kitchen, and the door is in a different place. I struggle a little bit with keeping the house 100 percent like it was in the movie, for example, I put a tin roof on because that will last much longer than asphalt shingles, and that damn 19th century roof is way too steep for this old man to be out there nailing shingles. Also, with the high crime in the area I would like to put a higher fence all the way around, but for now I've just raised the fence on the sides and back. Last year a man got a gun away from a cop, shot the cop, and ran and hid under my house. About 20 cop cars showed up, I had no idea what was going on, but I got in my car and left! My friend who also lives there was sitting in his car and he watched the cops pull this dude out from under the house. So Jason moved to California or whatever, but his brother's ghetto buddies are still banging around there. You hear gunfire every day and night, and hear about murders within blocks every couple of weeks. I'll miss the people walking around and being friendly, the good parts of the old neighborhood, but the crime part needs to go. Alot of the original windows have bullet holes or were shot out. So much has been stolen off the house- the electrical wiring, the front and most of the interior doors, the aluminum window shades you see over the windows in the movie, the Victorian porch decoration and original posts - all stolen. Someone stole the front gates but I replaced with similar vintage 1950s ones. Still it's a beautiful piece of architecture that represents the 120+ years- six generations- that the building has seen come and go. For the fans of the movie and as a reminder of the past I hope it remains there for many years after I'm gone too.

      @Jay S bull----. There's trees on the fenceline and I like it that way for privacy. There's nothing 'covering up' the house and the new roof is keeping mother nature out. When i bought it a tree had fallen on the roof and opened up a big hole over the back porch and the house was indeed rotting. I've rebuilt all that stuff with vintage lumber so you'd never even know it was damaged. It's easy to run your mouth without having the facts, especially based on internet "research".

      That’s cool thanks for sharing do you still own the house, if someone cuts some trees n grass around it will look just like the movie but don’t let them over due it just close the doors n gate and I bet people all over the world would visit, next time I’m in Houston I’m going there soon…

      I drove by “Jason’s mom’s” house on Sauer & Tuam with my sons a couple of years ago to check it out. Can definitely tell it’s the same house, just a lot more trees and bushes and not kept up. There was a guy there who said he was taking care of the property and I’m pretty sure he lied to me when he said they’re working on a sequel to Jason’s lyric that will be filmed there 😂. He talked me into tipping him $5 for his time haha.
      Also , drove by “Lyric’s” house in 6th ward. Owner was sitting outside and was happy to share his knowledge with me about the house and movie. He bought it after the movie but knew about it. Unlike Jason’s mom’s 3rd ward house, this house is actually in a good area and well kept.

    For those who may not know this is the Historic 3rd Ward in Houston Texas which is also where Phylicia Rashad attended Jack Yates High School. All the land is being bought up for gentrification along with my old neighborhood 5th Ward. When Houston was first built courtesy of 2 new yorkers called the Allen Brothers, the original Houston was1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th wards which originally were political sub-divisions with each ward having 2 Aldermen. When the slaves were freed most settled in the Historic 4thward and was called Freedman's Town. Long story short all the Wards along with another Historical location called the Heights are all being Gentrified hence the buildings being demolished. I'd say in another 20 years or less, the entire area will be demolished including all, the historical areas where the slaves laid bricks for the streets in the 4th Ward. Because Houston is a business-friendly city thanks to there being no zoning laws all these areas will be gone and forgotten.

      I agree J. Campbell. I remember going to Houston quite often as a kid to visit family. Often went to Trinity Gardens. My impression of blacks in Houston based off of what I saw was that most blacks in Houston lived in the ghettos. I know that’s not true but at that time as a kid that’s the impression I had based off what I saw. Most of the stores were liquor stores, second hand stores, corner stores, chop shop looking auto garages, and the like.
