Decaying Former Wendy's (Houston, Texas)

The post-Wendy's Loan Star, still in relatively good shape (Google Street View).

This article is part of the phase-out of "Crosstimbers Road and West Crosstimbers Road in Houston (Houston, Texas)" (soon to be a page on 1331 Crosstimbers Street) which was revived on Carbon-izer.com. This particular entry is on the Wendy's that was on Crosstimbers near I-45. It opened in 1985 and closed in 2013, becoming Loanstar Title Loans afterward. This was closed between November 2016 and May 2017, and boarded up soon after. Sadly, around 2020 the solarium (hidden behind plywood) was later completely removed.
It just gets worse...

And worse. This is what it looked like in 2011.
