Sometimes known as East End, the neighborhood of East Houston offers a rich mix of amenities to make your day-to-day living stimulating and convenient. East Houston sits just 10 miles from downtown via I-10 West for convenient access to nightlife and shopping on the weekends.
Start your morning with a double shot to go at Paper Co. Cafe, right before catching convenient public transport to work. At Well Done Cooking Classes, you can learn about slinging pizza dough, then stop at the East End Street Market to grab some fresh Roma tomatoes and put your cooking class to good use for dinner in your centrally-located apartment. In the summer, take your favorite novel or a sketchbook to Cockrell Butterfly Center and sit among the beautiful flying insects while you rejuvenate.
