This project was the second phase of parks implementation outlined in the District's Parks Master Plan, which was completed by EHRA in 2007. Utilizing the site of a recently demolished former wastewater treatment plant provided an opportunity to create a passive park space for District residents.
EHRA worked with the District to create a comprehensive Parks Master Plan, which included recommendations for the development of over two miles of hike/bike trails adjacent to local streets, and within flood control and utility pipeline easements. The District began implementation of the Plan by prioritizing the beautification of West Road, a major arterial street that runs through the District.
EHRA completed a site-specific planning and visioning study for the proposed 470-acre San Jacinto Boulevard District (SJBD) in Baytown, Texas.
Identified as a top priority during the development of the District’s Parks Master Plan, this portion of trail was the first phase of over two miles of planned trails to provide connectivity and recreation for District residents.
EHRA assisted with the district creation of Montgomery County Municipal Utility District No. 126 to accommodate a ±329 acre master planned community located in northern Montgomery County in the City of Conroe, south of League Line Road, west of Longmire Road, and adjacent to Lake Conroe.
If you've ever traveled Texas, you've seen some pretty amazing briges, and a few that just look like art. A few from the Houston area have made an impressive list of Beautiful Texas Bridges. Rainbow Bridge, Bridge City: The first time I saw this thing I was terrified driving from Houston. As Texans, especially around here, we see nothing but flat land, but somehow in the distance I saw car lights way up in the sky and wondered what in the world was happening. Why is the Rainbow Bridge so high? (It's the tallest in Texas.) The city of Beaumont thought it would interfere with shipping, so the builders had to agree to make it high enough to accommodate a U.S. Navy ship that dirigibles hooked up to, which was the tallest ship in the fleet at the time. Fred Hartman Bridge, Baytown and La Porte: This bridge is famous for its sail motif. Ridden by more than a few cyclists, it's a popular one on the way to many beach spots close to Houston. Martin Luther King Bridge, Port Arthur: Old Texans still refer to this by its original Gulfgate Bridge name. Also impressive, it warrants a visit as well.
