Residents in Houston's East Downtown area are seeking the restoration of a green space that was altered for the FIFA World Cup Fan Fest. The East Downtown Promenade had its grass replaced with decomposed granite, leaving neighbors without one of their few green areas. Further details on the situation are available from local sources.

It is known that some residents, including Ed Pettitt and Nguyen Le, are pushing for the city to restore the promenade to its original state. They are in opposition to the East Downtown Management District board's decision to keep the decomposed granite in place. The full story can be found through local news outlets, including KPRC 2 Click2Houston, which has more information on the residents' efforts to reclaim their green space.
