Welcome to Memorial
What to Expect
Easy access to the Energy Corridor but suburban tranquility too.
Memorial is an ideal homebase for those working in Houston’s Energy Corridor, the nearby district where many international energy companies have put down corporate roots. Memorial Real Estate is also just as convenient for residents to head home at the end of the day to the area’s serene, secluded subdivisions.
The Lifestyle
An appreciation for good retail, restaurants, and recreation.
There’s no need to trek into the Inner Loop for a little retail therapy or a memorable evening out; Memorial residents can make the short drive over to the Memorial City Mall, the 37-acre CityCentre, or Town and Country Village for first-rate shops, restaurants, and entertainment options. Two massive nature preserves--Bear Creek Pioneers Park and George Bush Park--are within striking distance too.
Unexpected Appeal
The neighborhood’s quaint throwback vibe.
“Pleasant” is a word that comes up a lot in descriptions of Memorial (which is also known as Memorial West, to distinguish it from the adjacent Memorial Villages area). It’s the kind of place where kids play in sizable yards in front of picturesque homes, and it’s not unusual to see families out for evening strolls or kids enjoying the splash pad at the 22-acre Nottingham Park.
The Market
Ample lots and lots of exquisite, updated offerings.
While many of the area’s original one-story ranch homes, developed in the sixties and seventies, have been replaced, you can expect to see lots of gigantic Georgian, Mediterranean, and traditional brick two-stories that went up in later decades and have been thoroughly modernized. Homes for sale in Memorial that are brand-new builds are popping up too.
You'll Fall in Love With
Memorial’s secret gem of a park.
Terry Hershey Park may not be as well known as expansive Memorial Park, a few miles to the west, but it’s no less beloved by Memorial residents who frequent its bucolic six-mile hike and bike trail, which runs along Buffalo Bayou.
