Programs : Main Street Square
|
|
Central Houston worked with downtown constituents and allies to design and construct Main Street Square, a three-block pedestrian plaza in the 900-1100 blocks of Main Street. The Square includes a massive fountain -- 250 feet long -- with 13 “jump jets” which shoot water 40 feet high, and 39 smaller “pop jets,” art work, canopies, flowering plants, and more.
The square contributes to a revitalized retail atmosphere and provides a relaxing and social space to the changing downtown environment. Central Houston raised most of the funding for this $8.9 million project from private donations.
Central Houston continues work to enhance Main Street Square with additional enhancements.
