East End Houston is a vibrant international business district rich in diversity and bursting with residential and commercial development. Strategically located between the Port of Houston, downtown Houston and Hobby Airport; we are blossoming with a dedicated professional and semi-skilled workforce, the community is a magnet for growth! With over 250 available acres of land to build, including the recently purchased KBR property along the Buffalo Bayou, East End Houston is at a tipping point for transition.
