Because of its central location, the neighborhood is experiencing a Renaissance after decades of disinvestment. The area's grand homes, some of the city's best examples of architecture from the late Art Deco and Mid-Century modern eras, are being restored against a backdrop of infrastructure and economic development activity. The demographics of this historically African American community are shifting to reflect Houston's racial and socioeconomic diversity, with a mix of retired residents who have been here for decades and recently-arrived young professionals of all stripes. The property is convenient to many popular destinations, including: - Hermann Park (1 mile) - Museum District (1 mile) - Texas Southern University (1 mile) - Texas Medical Center (2 miles) - University of Houston (2 miles) - Rice University (2 miles) - Downtown Houston (3 miles) - George R.
