Discovery Green Park opens in Downtown Houston

Discovery Green Park opens in Downtown Houston

Discovery Green Park opened up for “business” this past weekend to large crowds who had come to see what the hype was about from local TV news and newspapers. This 13 acre, $122 million project by the City of Houston certainly did not let them down.

Complete with waterworks, playgrounds and even a dogpark this was reminiscent of New York’s Central Park, although much smaller in size. It is located accross the street from George R Brown convention center, in close proximity to Minute Maid Park, Hilton and Four Seasons hotels.

Being as obsessed as I am with Houston Real Estate, I had to look for possible real estate plays related to the park and discovered that they were being made already. A luxury leasing development by The Finger Companies, dubbed One Park Place, was already under way and being marketed as “Downtown Luxury Living, Featuring a 13-acre front yard”. Very coincidental!

Anyhoo.. For all the photos catch my entire Flickr stream.
