Uptown also incorporates two sections of detached and semi-detached luxury homes.

These awesome homes sit side-by-side with elegant townhomes and duplexes, providing a sense of close community along quiet, tree-lined streets, all next door to one of Houston's thriving business districts.
Uptown is located 6 miles west of downtown Houston, west of the I-610, north of Richmond Avenue, south of Woodway Drive, and (partly) east of Yorktown Street. Uptown is primarily known as a commercial area, with many renowned shopping centers and hotels. The center of this business district is arguably at the intersection of Post Oak Boulevard and Westheimer Road.
From the center of Uptown, downtown Houston is only 20 minutes away. And, just off Uptown's northeast corner, Memorial Park is Houston's largest park, with miles of forested trails, sports facilities, and a full golf-course.
Post Oak Boulevard is set to undergo extensive development, including improvements to transit services, pedestrian-focused infrastructure, and the addition of extra trees to the area.
The Uptown area is home to a number of landmarks and citywide attractions. Foremost of these is the Galleria shopping center, the largest in Texas. The Galleria is such a high profile attraction that Uptown is often simply referred to as "Galleria".
In part thanks to the Galleria, Uptown is now Houston's premier retail district hosting hundreds of quality stores, restaurants, and entertainment venues, including the Galleria's own indoor skating rink.
Other highlights in the Uptown city-scape are Williams Tower (a 900-foot-tall skyscraper) and its associated Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park, The Lakes on Post Oak, and the Uptown Park shopping complex.
With all this on offer, it's not hard to see why Uptown is one of Houston's top attractions for visitors and residents alike. The glorious tree-lined streets, many parks, and sparkling high-rises convey elegance and vitality, and the central location will put Houston's many other attractive areas and amenities at your doorstep.
