Board of Directors

For the past 20 years, Downtown has experienced an exciting renaissance and a remarkable economic rebound. Today, Houston region residents and visitors are seeing Downtown as more than a workplace. It is now a place to live, visit, enjoy the arts, learn, worship and to recreate. The District’s role in this transformation has been significant, thanks to a dedicated and passionate board of directors and team of professionals that are responsible for managing, promoting and taking care of Downtown 24/7.
