Neighborhood

Also known as the Freedman’s Town, Fourth Ward is one of the six historic wards in Houston, just a few minutes from downtown. The area is also known as Freedman’s Town because it was a post-Civil War community for free black Americans. Today, you can find luxury condos, high-rises, and vintage homes throughout the neighborhood. Fourth Ward is also great for families with teenagers because the community is home to one of the top high schools in the nation.

A great choice for nature and outdoor lovers, the Fourth Ward has several green spaces for residents and visitors to enjoy. Popular Eleanor Tinsley Park offers running trails, lush trails, a dog park, a skate park, and public art with skyline views. If you’re feeling hungry, there are a lot of options nearby for restaurants too.

Located within the 610 loop and near Interstate 45, Fourth Ward occupants can get to the city center in as little as five minutes.
