More about the Master Plan

After developing Buffalo Bayou Park and other award-winning green space projects in the downtown area, BBP has produced a master plan for the bayou’s east sector that encompasses the area from US 59 to the Port of Houston Turning Basin. Based on input received at well-attended community engagement meetings and other outreach events, the Buffalo Bayou East Master Plan includes parks and diverse attractions along the bayou that will be connected to each other and the surrounding neighborhoods by a network of trails, sidewalks and pedestrian green fingers.
 
In the coming months, BBP is hosting free pontoon boat tours, wellness walks and bike rides through the area. Come out to “Explore East” and view the sites included in the master plan!  View the complete schedule here.
