First Montrose Commons Historic District pairs architectural character with a central address, where 1910s–1930s bungalows, foursquares, and Art Deco apartments line leafy blocks protected by the City of Houston Historic Preservation. Steps from the cafes and galleries of Montrose, minutes to Midtown and the Museum District, residents enjoy an easy commute and a lifestyle rich in culture.
On weekends, walk to the serene Rothko Chapel and the world-renowned The Menil Collection, or cycle to the trails and skyline views at Buffalo Bayou Park. The tree-canopied campus of the University of St. Thomas anchors the neighborhood with lectures, performances, and green space, while the active First Montrose Commons Civic Association hosts beautification efforts and community events that make it easy to know your neighbors.
Families appreciate access to Houston ISD schools and a range of nearby magnet and specialty programs, plus convenient proximity to museums, libraries, and after-school arts. From quiet, porch-sitting evenings to an impromptu dinner around the corner, the district balances historic integrity with everyday convenience.
