DoneUnfortunately I had to take these from the street, so there are some trees obstructing the view, but I've got a gallery of the photos I took here. I talked to the guard at the gate and she was fairly unhelpful (refusing to confirm that this is actually the right house, for example), but she did say I could leave a card and ask permission to come on the property and take photos. I did not do this, since I am not usually in River Oaks, but if someone wants to take better photos, I've had good luck in just asking people if I can snap a few photos.0x0077BE [talk/contrib] 21:21, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

New Consulate-General of India, Houston - 4300 Scotland, Houston, TX - Done Photos taken, uploaded and added to the article, though someone from inside came out and started harassing me, asking me for ID and such before I could get what I considered to be a perfect framing of it. I'm happy to encourage people to continue taking photos of this place, if only to upset the guy who was trying to stop me taking photos. 0x0077BE(talk · contrib) 23:27, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
