    "A tucked away corner next to Hermann park and the medical center. Lovely neighbors quiet atmosphere. Unfortunate bad roads. Eclectic mix of apartments, condos, attached and detached townhomes and a few older homes on big lots. Walking distance to Hermann park and short biking or drive to most popular spots in inner loop Houston "

    "I’m actually searching for the right location. I have known about this area for many years and would recommend it to anyone. Seeing that I was raised and resided in the Southeast and surrounding Bay Area, I highly recommend this location. I also practiced Real Estate for 20+ years outside my primary employment, the area is highly sought after. I am looking to downsize to a location for myself seeing that both of my children have graduated from College and now happily married. I am also widowed and this location appeals to my style of living for many years to come. More information will be requested by me. Thank you "
