Great Things are Happening in Houston's East End!

We are celebrating incredible success this month, a culmination of many months of hard work and dedication from our committed members!

• The City and County approved an agreement to build the Houston Dynamo Stadium in the East End!
• Five new METRO Board Members were appointed by Mayor Parker with commitment to build light rail that is an attractor for eocnomic development, rather than a deterrent!
