Question
The Economist dubbed this city the “blob that ate” part of its state due to its urban sprawl, which developed despite being the largest US city without formal zoning laws. I.M. Pei designed this city’s J.P. Morgan Chase Tower with five sides. The largest children’s hospital and the MD Anderson Cancer Center are part of this city’s medical district which borders Brays Bayou. The 26-lane (*) Katy Freeway is a portion of I-10 that serves this city and suburbs like Sugar Land and The Woodlands. Excess pavement in this major city possibly exacerbated the flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey. Interstate 610’s loop around this city includes Rice University but not the Johnson Space Center. For 10 points, name this most populous city in Texas. ■END■
