About

Location

Now is the time. Houston is the place.

These are exciting times for Houston. The fourth largest city in the country and growing, Houston has a broad business base in energy, manufacturing, aeronautics, and transportation. Only New York City can claim more large public companies. The city is home to the world’s largest concentration of health care and research institutions, ranks third in the U.S. for scheduled non-stop, domestic and international air service, and is the site of NASA’s Johnson Space Center, where Mission Control is located.

Location

The Heartbeat of Houston Begins with the Bayou.

Long before the shining rise of Houston and Texas, natural springs and tributaries flowed through Buffalo Bayou on the way to the Gulf. Today, the bayou buzzes with new Houston energy. Waterside trails provide a natural getaway, recreation space, and outdoor venue for art and music—right in the heart of the nation’s fourth-largest city. The prized recreational and natural spaces of Buffalo Bayou Park and Memorial Park get better and greener every season.

And Buffalo Heights is Right Next Door.
