Introduction

The Greater Greenspoint Super

Neighborhood is located in north

Houston, bounded by the Hardy Toll

Road on the east, and bisected by

the North Freeway (I-45) and the

North Sam Houston Tollway (Beltway

8). Fundamentally, the neighborhood

is divided in quadrants by the North

Freeway and the Beltway, which

simultaneously connects the area

to the city and divides the areasneighborhoods.

The Greenspoint area was primarily

developed between the 1970s

and the 1980s. Most notably,

Greenspoint Mall, completed in 1976,

sparked economic growth and the

development of hotel, business and

office centers in and around the area.

Greenspoint, in its heyday, became

the home to young professionalswho worked in the areas office

complexes.

Since the 1980s, Greenspoint has

experienced gradual disinvestment

and a virtual halt to economic

development. Greenspoint Mall,

once the largest enclosed mall in

Houston, is now the fourth largest,

and has lost most of its national

franchises. The demographics of thearea have also changed over the last

three decades, and Greenspoint has

gone from a community comprised of

mainly single professionals to an area

that is home to many young families.

The Greenspoint area developed

primarily in the 1970s soon after

Houston Intercontinental Airport

was completed in 1969. Many of

the multi-family developments in

the area were built in the1970s. In

1976, Greenspoint Mall opened and

became the largest and one of the

most popular shopping malls in the

city. The mall sparked additional

investment in the area. In 1989,Exxon Mobil moved its headquarters

to the Greenspoint Business District

sparking even more investment and

job growth in the area. Greenspoint

became an attractive area for

young professionals looking for

job opportunities, housing and

entertainment.

In 1987 the price of oil collapsed and

the Houston economy slumped. The

Greenspoint area was hit hard. Many

of the apartment complexes had high

vacancy rates and crime increased,

as it did throughout the city.

In 1991, the Greenspoint area was

incorporated into the City of Houston

and the Greenspoint Management

District was created. Crime reduction

was one of the main priorities for the

Management District, which in 1994opened a Public Safety Center at

Greenspoint Mall. Following a tough

decade, the Greenspoint areas

residents and property owners were

encouraged when in 1998 the Archon

Group acquired over 5,000 apartment

units in the area for renovation and

upgrading, with plans to secure

additional units. The goal was to

again make the area popular for

young professionals. While many

apartments were renovated, overall

the project was not successful, and

in 2010 three of the complexes once

held by Archon were foreclosed and

purchased by Kaplan Management.

The goal for Kaplan is to increase

civic programs in the complexes,

such as a clinic, tutoring, vocational

training, a police storefront and other

services.

The Greenspoint Management

District and the TIRZ are enhancing

the overall attractiveness of the

district, building parks and open

spaces, and working to enhance

economic opportunity. But there

remain significant challenges for area

families, including poverty, access to

healthy food, and transportation.

Greenspoint Mall opened in 1976.

Until the late 1990s the Mall was the

largest in the Houston region, today

it is the fourth, behind the Galleria,

Memorial City Mall, and Willowbrook

Mall. The mall was initially anchored

by Sears and Foleys, but in the late

70s the mall was expanded and four

additional anchor stores were added,

Lord & Taylor, JCPenney, Joskes and

Montgomery Ward. In 1989, the mall

had the highest occupancy rate in the

city at 94%.

As Houstons economy slumped in

the late 80s, the Greenspoint area

began to see some disinvestment,

the effects of which were also felt in

the mall. Lord & Taylor closed and

was replaced by Mervyns in 1989,

Neighborhood is located in north

Houston and covers an area of

roughly seven square miles. The

neighborhood is bounded on the

east by the Hardy Toll Road, and

divided into quadrants by the North

Freeway (I-45), which runs north and

south, and the North Sam Houston

Tollway (Beltway 8), which runs

east and west. Greens Bayou windsthrough the northern quadrants of the

community.

The major thoroughfares in the area

are Greens Road and Airline Drive.

Greenspoint is approximately seven

miles from Bush Intercontinental

Airport, and is twenty minutes from

Downtown Houston. Greenspoint

Mall (with 1.5 million square feet) and

the Greater Greenspoint BusinessDistrict (where 78,000 work) are

anchors in the community.

The Greenspoint area is in many

ways a tale of two cities: one city that

caters to those who work in the areas

office buildings; and one city for those

who call the area home. Finding

ways to bridge across the different

users of the area is important for its

future.

Neighborhood is divided into distinct

land uses that operate independently,

acting almost like islands separated

from other uses. Multi-family housing

makes up over 85% of all housing

units in the area and is concentrated

in the northern sections of the

community. Single-family detached

housing makes up only 15% of all

housing units and is concentratedin the southeast portion of the

neighborhood.

Office and commercial space in

the area totals over 18 million

square feet. Office development is

concentrated just east of the Mall

and in the northwest quadrant of the

community, west of I-45.

Major investment in the Greenspoint

area began in the early 1970s. In

1976, Greenspoint Mall opened

and beginning in the late 1970s and

early 1980s office buildings, hotels,

and additional retail space begin to

be developed adjacent to the mall.

The largest of these developments

was Greenspoint Plaza, originally

developed by the Friendswood

Development Company, andincludes six office buildings with two

prime development sites for future

buildings.

Exxon Mobil is one of the major

employers in Greenspoint. The

company opened offices there in

the late 1980s. Currently Exxon

occupies over 2 million square feet,

approximately 16% of all office space

in the area. Recently the companyhas announced a move further north

to a new campus in Spring. The

Management District is sure that this

space will be filled in the future.

Greenspoint has one of the largest

concentrations of multi-family

housing in Houston. Most of the

housing was developed between

the mid-1970s through to the mid-

1980s. The median year housing

was constructed in the Greenspoint

area is 1977. Most of the multi-

family housing is concentrated

along Greens Road in the northern

quadrant of the community. Ofthe 13,559 total housing units in

the Super Neighborhood nearly

11,000 of these are multi-family.

Furthermore, multi-family complexes

with 10 or more units make up 65%

of all housing in the area.

Single-family housing is concentrated

in the southeast portion of the

neighborhood. This area holds

nearly all of the 2,000 single-familyunits.

In total Greenspoint will have 48acres of parks once those currently

under construction are complete.

According to City of Houstons

guidelines for parks this falls far short

of the recommended park space.

Over 24% of Greenspoint households

do not have access to a vehicle, as

compared to 10% in Houston overall.

The area is served by three Metro

bus routes: the 56 Airline; the 86

FM 1960 Crosstown; and the 102

Airport. These routes have very high

ridership. The 56 Airline ranks eighth

among Metro bus routes for weekday

boardings, fourth for Saturday

boardings, and first for Sundays.

The transit lines connect the

area to the airport, Downtown

Houston, Airline flea markets, and

other destinations. The edge of

Greenspoint Mall along Greenspoint

Drive serves informally as a transit

center, with all three routes stopping

adjacent to the mall.

In addition to bus service, it has been

proposed that the Northside Light

Rail line be extended north to serve

Bush Intercontinental Airport. The

route would come north along Airline,

jog over to Greenspoint Drive, and

then travel east along Greens Road

to reach the airport. This extension

remains a future possibility.

Neighborhood is in the Greens Bayou

watershed. The bayou flows east

and west along the northern portion

of the neighborhood and is prone to

flooding. As a result, much of the

area sits within either the 100-year or

500-year flood zone.

41% of all housing is in the 100-year

flood zone, while 16% is in a 500-year zone. 72% of all multi-family

housing is in a flood zone, as much

of it was developed along the banks

of the bayou. As a result, many of

the structures have been flooded on

numerous occasions, creating an

ongoing risk for tenants.

Neighborhood is in Aldine ISD.

There are three elementary schools,

one public charter elementary, two

middle schools, one ninth grade

campus, and one high school in the

area. All of the public schools are

south of Beltway 8 making it difficult

for young people to walk to school.

Remington College has a campusoff of Greens Road on the east side

of I-45. There are also a number of

other adult education facilities in the

area.

The northeastern section of the

neighborhood has bew basic

amenities. There are no full-service

grocery stores in this area, only

small mini-marts and convenience

stores, and this area is the mostdensely populated sector of the

neighborhood.

Neighborhood is just over 7 square

miles and is home to approximately

39,000 people. The population

density of the area is approximately

5,500 people per square mile, 50%

higher than the average population

density in the city of Houston, though

much of the land area is vacant.

The Greater Greenspoint SuperNeighborhood is majority Hispanic

(68%). 5% of the population is White,

25% Black/African-American, and 1%

Asian. 37% of the population was

born outside of the U.S. compared to

28% in Houston.

Over the last twenty years the

population in Greenspoint has

increased by 48%, where Houston

has grown by 34%. Since 1990,an additional 12,500 people call

Greenspoint home even though only

1,720 new housing units have been

constructed. This fact illustrates the

increasing density of Greenspoint as

families have replaced singles in the

many apartment complexes. In fact,

in Greenspoint 36% of the population

is under 18 years of age as compared

to 27% in Houston. In 1990 only 9%

of the population of Greenspoint wasunder 18.

Neighborhood is a successful office

center, but the neighborhoods

residents are not having the same

success. 34% of households in

Greenspoint live on incomes below

poverty level, and many are children.

The nearly 11,000 apartment units

are in need of maintenance and many

face an ongoing risk of flooding. The

complexes have become islands,each separated from the larger

community.

We have identified four opportunities

for improvement in the Greenspoint

area: Greenspoint Mall; the highway

underpasses; the system of parks

and trails; and revitalization of multi-

family housing. The opportunities

could work to support the diverse

user groups in the area while alsopointing to potential strategies for

weaving the different land uses and

amenities together.

Greenspoint Mall

Opportunities

Greenspoint Mall, completed in 1976,

was once the largest and one of the

most prestigious malls in Houston.

Today the mall has fallen on hard

times. Anchor stores have closed

and national franchises have been

replaced by smaller, and in some

cases, local franchises. Recently, a

new cinema, the Premiere Theater,

opened on the site of the former

JCPenney.

The mall site is bounded by I-45 on

the west and Beltway 8 on the south,

and is directly across the street from

the Greenspoint Business District that

draws 78,000 office workers each

day, with average incomes far above

the Houston median. In contrast, the

residents of the area are struggling

economically. According to the

Greenspoint Management District,

there are 85,000 people within a

three mile radius, and nearly 200,000

within a five mile radius.

within the 100 acres

The mall is a primary opportunity

site within the neighborhood. The

100 acre site could be strategically

re-considered both as a structure to

add-on to or as a site for intervention.

New programs for the mall could

build on the existing conditions. For

example, the eastern edge of the site

along Greenspoint Drive currently

serves as an informal transit center, a

re-designed transit center could better

integrate with the mall to allow transit

riders a place to get a cup of coffee

or a bite to eat. The area could also

cater to air travelers providing auto

service, pet boarding, dry cleaning,

or other services. Housing, open

space, and educational facilities are

other opportunities for programmatic

intervention on the site. Finding

ways to simultaneously meet the

needs of residents and area office

workers could result in new success

for the mall. BELOW: Greenspoint MaOPPOSITE PAGE: Aerial o

Re-connecting the quadrants of

the neighborhood by developing

a strategy to enhance the

attractiveness and connectivity of

underpasses throughout the area is

an opportunity.


District has been actively pursuing

ideas to transform the underpasses,

and have completed a project

focused on painting the columns in

shades of blue and green under I-45

and the Beltway.

Other strategies might include

public art, lighting, programmatic

interventions, a transit center, or

Mutli-Family

Greenspoint has been designated a

Multi-Family Revitalization Zone by

the City of Houston. The program

focuses on distressed multi-family

housing, particularly housing in

the flood plain. The program

provides resources for demolition,

green space, and reconstruction.

Greenspoint has nearly 11,000 units

of multi-family housing, much of it

concentrated in the flood plain.

Developing strategies for selective

editing of multi-family complexes

in Greenspoint, and re-purposing

these areas as detention and

open spaces, could be benefical.

In addition, strategies to add

supportive programming to the

complexes could be explored. For

example, after-school programs,

health services, job training, day

care, business incubators, or other

programs.
