dbigtex56 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 This seems like good news.I wonder if this has anything to do with another post I saw about councilmember Michael Berry having land for sale in this vicinity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest danax Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 is this part of the buffalo bayou master plan being done in segments?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yes, it is part of the Master Plan. It was transferred over to Harris County today and they will own and manage it from now on but the Buffalo Bayou Partnership. who have the Master Plan, contributed financing to buy the land. There are a lot of groups involved in the 20 year plan. I don't know when construction on this park will begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHCoog27 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Very happy to see this. Also...http://www.buffalobayou.org/eastside.htmlThe Buffalo Bayou masterplan, Buffalo Bayou and Beyond, calls for trails along the bayou from Shepherd to Lockwood Drive and the Partnership is actively promoting and funding trails in East Houston.The land along the bayou east of downtown is almost all in private hands today. These private landowners are banding together to give small parcels of the land to the city for hike and bike trails.As of spring of 2004, almost 4 miles of trails have been built along the bayou on private lands just east of downtown. Dozens of volunteers have helped plant more than 100 native trees along the new trails. The trails will officially open to the public in the spring.Have these trails worked their way close to Lockwood yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotYetYuppie Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I just went jogging on the trail that starts on the sourth side of the Bayou at Jensen, and it is almost complete to North Yourk/Hirsh/Waco and the park there (Tony Marron). Also, Going the other direction from Jensen, there is a trail that is also a trail almost finished to McKee. BBP told me these would be complete by the fall and there would be a "grand opening."Heading east from Tony Marron is the beginning of a trail, but it doen not extend far and I have not explored from York to Lockwood yet...
