Lamar Terrace-St George Place

Houston’s Galleria area has seen incredible changes since the mid 1990s. One of the most dramatic is the transformation of Lamar Terrace, bounded by Westheimer Road to the north, Richmond Avenue to the south, S. Rice Avenue to the east, and Hillcroft Street to the west. Originally a mid-century subdivision of modest homes, Lamar Terrace today is in the heart of Houston’s most cosmopolitan district and boasts superb, recently- constructed homes ranging in price from $500,000 to $900,000.

Part of Lamar Terrace just south of the Galleria is now St. George Place, Texas’ first and most successful Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) and the first zoned neighborhood within Houston. St. George Place is a dynamic residential neighborhood in one of the best locations the city has to offer near world class shopping and dining. Its traditional architecture, quiet horseshoe streets, mature, spreading trees and active civic association make it home for many discerning Houstonians.
