Once a popular industrial district, East Downtown Houston has become an increasingly popular locale in the fourth most populous city in America. Situated between the 45 and 69 freeways near the University of Houston, EaDo as it’s frequently abbreviated, has residents and developers alike flocking to its characterful streets.
Previously abandoned warehouses have made way for breweries, entertainment venues, restaurants, and apartments. The neighborhood’s proximity to the University of Houston makes it a prime spot for students and faculty alike. The area plays host to the popular Houston Dynamo soccer team at the BBVA Compass Stadium, and a slew of popular restaurants and bars around Emancipation Ave. and Polk St.
East Downtown offers plenty of character and amenities all while being just a ten-minute walk from the center of Houston.
