Questions about 77007

How is the commute from 77007 to downtown and Uptown?

77007 sits directly west of downtown, and most of it is two to five miles from the central business district via Memorial Drive, Allen Parkway, Washington Avenue or I-10 along the northern edge. Loop 610 and Memorial Park mark the western end, giving quick access to Uptown and the Galleria.

What types of homes are in Rice Military and the Washington Avenue area?

Three- and four-story townhomes dominate much of Rice Military and the Washington corridor, while Cottage Grove and the Old Sixth Ward keep more early-1900s cottages and bungalows. The Old Sixth Ward is a City of Houston historic district, so exterior changes there need review by the Houston Archaeological and Historical Commission.

Is flooding a consideration in 77007?

Buffalo Bayou runs along the southern edge, and some blocks near the bayou and in lower-lying sections fall within mapped floodplains. Check the address in the Harris County Flood Control District's Flood Education Mapping Tool, ask about past flooding, and review the seller's flood disclosure.

What parks are in 77007?

Memorial Park, about 1,500 acres, has running and mountain-bike trails, a public golf course, tennis and restored prairie. Buffalo Bayou Park's north-bank trails run along Memorial Drive, and Nellie Keyes Park in Rice Military has a playground and walking trail.
