THE POST
POST is surrounded by some of the city’s top cultural, recreational and civic amenities. As part of the Houston Theater District — the nation’s second largest after Broadway —, POST offers easy access to performances by Houston’s world class theater, opera and dance companies. Moreover, the Theater District is undergoing major upgrades with the renovation of the Lynn Wyatt Square for the Performing Arts and the Bagby Street Improvement Project which will include better pedestrian and bike access.
At our front door is Buffalo Bayou Park, a 160 acre green network that includes a skate park, picnic areas, a children’s play area, dog park and miles of bike and hiking trails. The hundreds of thousands of visitors that enjoy the park each year can also kayak on the waterway or visit art installations at the Bayou’s iconic Cistern. Enter the Park through Sesquicentennial Park or the George H.W. Bush Monument directly across the street from POST.
Step back in time at the Julia Ideson Library, a Spanish Revival style library opened in 1926 and elegantly restored in 2011 or take a quick lunch break at the Hermann Square plaza in front of City Hall, which hosts food trucks serving everything from tacos to halal kababs.

Lastly, POST is connected to the city’s civic monuments and buildings through Bagby Street. Bagby acts as a civic trail that connects the city’s most important historical and public spaces: The Heritage Society at Sam Houston Park, Houston Public Library, Julia Ideson Library, City Hall, and Tranquility Park. The Heritage Society painstakingly documents the history and evolution of Houston from the 1800s to the mid-1900s. Explore authentically restored houses from the 19th century or visit an exhibit celebrating Texas suffragists struggle to gain the right for women to vote.
