History

Rice Military/Washington Corridor Map

Click on the map of Rice Military/Washington to enlarge

Washington Avenue’s history dates back to 1849, when a wagon and stagecoach route to downtown Houston was established. When the Houston & Texas Central terminal was built at the end of the street, it became such an important thoroughfare that at the turn of the century it was paved, becoming one of the first paved roads in the city.

During the First World War, the Rice Military area was developed, and Washington Corridor transformed to a middle-class neighborhood popular with European immigrants. By the 1950s, the area began to atrophy, until revisited by today’s builders, who have begun to revitalize the area. Currently, the Washington Corridor area is going through the gentrification and modernization process.

What Makes Washington Corridor Special?

The Washington Corridor area provides the perfect blend of historic properties alongside modern ones. What draws the most people to visit this area is its thriving dining scene. Popular clubs and restaurants provide an enthralling nightlife for those who purchase Washington Corridor real estate. Location is also a crucial benefit, as the commute into downtown is simple from this Inner Loop Houston community, and public transportation is easily accessible.
