Houston’s beloved shopping district

Shopping Upscale Great Location Restaurants Elegant

Simply called Uptown or the Galleria, Uptown-Galleria is Houston’s prized commercial district. This upscale area offers luxury high-rise apartments, posh condos, and elegant mansion-like homes. Although Uptown is packed with retailers, the neighborhood is best known for the Galleria, a massive high-end shopping mall with a year-round skating rink, cafes, and designer shops. Memorial Park about three miles north of the community provides residents with lush lawns and excellent sports facilities, including a golf course. And if you want even more options for shopping, dining, and entertainment, Greenway-Upper Kirby and Downtown Houston are convenient to Uptown.
