A Distinctive Community

Page 3: Midtown mgmt district brochure

Custom street signs, decorative street lights

and artistic gateways are just a few of the

amenities experienced in the Midtown community.

Our neighborhood is at the center of cultural arts and

entertainment activities in Houston offering community

events, street festivals and random and amazing art.

We’re proud to be “the place” that people want to work,

live and play.

Our “big business, comfy neighborhood” attitude

makes Midtown the model of urban development,

complimented by our commitment to new

construction while preserving the historic structures.

As Houston’s premier neighborhood for the “hipster,”

our integration of mixed-use development, arts,

entertainment and retail creates an environment for

business success.

The growing demands of housing, retail and commercial services has attracted leading residential and commercial developers to Midtown. Our community offers a vibrant, culturally diverse livable and walkable environment.

We’re Not Only Green, We are Complete. As communities evaluate their sustainability practices, they turn to us. Midtown is proud to be the home of Texas’ first GreenRoads-certified complete street taking into consideration the needs of pedestrians, green practices, infrastructure and traffic. We have incorporated enhanced pathways and streetscapes to accommodate and encourage pedestrian activities. When you’re in Midtown, your employees and guests experience wider sidewalks, decorative brick pavers, street trees, custom benches, trash receptacles, over 5 acres of parks and well maintained green space -- better than what the City can offer on its own.

Connectivity is a key component in the creation of an authentic urban livable community.

It’s not all about living in Midtown, we’re

just as concerned about how people get

here. In the heart of Houston’s transit

system, Midtown is home to three rail

stations, a host of bus stations and Texas’

first GreenRoads-certified complete

street. We’re at the center of how things

move in Houston. With the expansion of

the University Line, mobility improves for

Midtown, offering service to the University

of Houston, Texas Southern University,

Greenway Plaza and Uptown Houston.
