Downtown Houston was the original founding point of the city of Houston. Headquarters to many prominent companies, downtown Houston is connected through an extensive network of pedestrian tunnels and skywalks.
Developers have invested more than $4 billion in the last decade to transform Downtown into an active city center with residential housing, a nightlife scene and new transportation. The Cotswold Project, a $62 million project started in 1998, has helped to rebuild the streets and transform 90 downtown blocks into a pedestrian-friendly environment by adding greenery, trees and public art. The resurgence of Downtown is the result of careful urban planning and local foresight. The baseball, basketball, and hockey teams have moved into Downtown facilities. January 1, 2004 marked the opening of the "new" Main Street, a plaza with many eateries, bars and nightclubs, which brings many visitors to a newly renovated locale.
