In the downtown Houston area, the residential housing options are varied, but they have at least one thing in common: all offer the opportunity to experience the vibrant heart of this amazing city first-hand. Downtown residents are a mix of young professionals, empty-nesters, downtown business owners and employees who enjoy a vibrant collection of restaurants, bars, shopping centers, hotels and art galleries right outside their doors. Sports fans appreciate the proximity of the home teams: the Houston Astros play at Minute Maid Park, and the Houston Rockets and Houston Comets play in their own downtown arena, Toyota Center. Lofts take center stage in the downtown residential scene, either newly built or located in renovated buildings. No fewer than 10 loft projects are conversions of existing historical buildings, most located in the Historic District (although others are located in an area known as the Shopping District). In addition, there are several luxury condominiums and residential buildings. Residential options come in a variety of price ranges, the most luxurious rivaling the prices of Manhattan.
Developers have spent billions of dollars making the downtown Houston area one of the most appealing places to live in all of Houston, even constructing three major highways for greater accessibility. Adding to the convenience is a light rail system connecting downtown with the Medical Center and Astrodome.
