We were in Houston for a 10K along the Buffalo Bayou. After the run I popped into the visitor’s center located in the Water Works in search of a map of the city, as our hotel was out of maps. Although I didn’t find the city map I was looking for, this visitor center does have free maps & guides to attractions along the Buffalo Bayou plus a nice selection of cards & gifts for sale. Best of all, the two workers there that day, Adriana & Rosemarie, were super helpful when asked for their recommendations for local dog-friendly breakfast spots & breweries nearby. They steered us straight to Saint Arnold’s brewing co, the ideal venue for enjoying a college football game outdoors with a pooch. Next time we’ll try Barnaby’s Cafe, their breakfast recommendation. Our trip to H-town was made more memorable thanks to tips from these gals!

We took the pontoon boat tour along Buffalo Bayou to Waugh Bridge to see the bats leave at dusk. Our pontoon captain was a skilled navigator because the recent rains had Bayou currents running fast and strong. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery and interesting commentary along the tour by the Buffalo Bayou Partnership tour guide (shame on me for not remembering these wonderful people's names).

Its an event space, industrial look inside and out. The inside could fit space could approximately 200 people standing and maybe 100 seated. Ceiling height is about 11ft

Very cool spot for events and catering. Rebecca gave me a tour around the property and it was awesome to hear more about what they offer and such. She was friendly and personable, had a great conversation. Their rooftop view is spectacular as well as the open area/park surrounding the building.

This place is so awesome because you can do alot of things here. It also got some very beautiful views some will take your breath away and some other ones will bring a big smile to your face. You can have fun with the canoes they do some events year round. Or you can simply just come and ride your bike looking at all the beautiful plants,trees, and bayous.. very beaauuuttyiiifffuuuullll..
