You’re a city kitty. You transform office attire into evening glam while switching lanes on 610 and de-stress by navigating the crowds at the Galleria. Even the busiest metropolitan multi-taskers need to trade their Blackberry for fresh air every once in a while.

Escape the concrete streets with your cashmere mafia and celebrate spring at the Houston Arboretum. This 150-acre green space on the edge of Memorial Park is our city’s spacious backyard. As you traverse the five miles of trails, you’ll meet urban dwellers of a different kind – the natural habitat is home to birds and butterflies, flowers and fish and other wildlife.

Development in H-town is good for everyone – but lucky for us, they haven’t paved all of paradise.
