    HIVE Houston Sustainable Village

    in Going Up!

    Posted · Edited by rene

    Apparently they're in the process of securing a six acre property between Harrisburg and Buffalo Bayou...does anybody have any additional information on this? What are your thoughts on the project itself, and what impacts do you anticipate it having on the East End?

    HIVE is the first project of its kind planned for Houston, intended to meet the needs of the growing population of the city with sustainable, affordable, and walkable living, working, and entertainment spaces. HIVE will bring together a multi-cultural community from various creative professional backgrounds, including artists, environmentalists, and business people. It is a response to a real need in Houston for a safe, urban experience, near public transportation, with great aesthetic value, low cost, and convenience.

    The success of HIVE will require proximity to excellent public transportation, and our intention is to be near a light rail line. We are currently investigating six-acre properties in the area known as EaDo, in the East End District just east of downtown Houston, and along Buffalo Bayou. We are particularly interested in areas near the Harrisburg light rail line, due to be completed in late 2013.

    howdy, east enders!

    my fiance and i recently moved into the 'hood. we are really starting to explore different parts of the east end, and are enjoying our home purchase decision thus far.

    just wanted to chime in---lots of informative threads in here, i'm sure we'll run into somebody from these boards some time.
