1701 Harvard

Greater Heights sits northwest of downtown Houston, with the White Oak Bayou corridor and its trails shaping the area’s outdoor feel. Houston’s hot, humid summers and mild winters make shaded walks and patios especially appealing. The Heights Hike and Bike Trail links green spaces and connects with the wider bayou trail network; parks and playgrounds offer room to get outside, and the Heights Neighborhood Library provides a local indoor stop. Historic homes and commercial buildings reflect the area’s past, while 19th Street and nearby commercial strips mix independent shops, cafés, restaurants, bars, and galleries. Residents can reach downtown by car, bike, bus, or trail connections, though Houston’s heat and distances can make driving useful for errands. For the Greater Heights neighborhood, median rent is $2,625 per month, with a typical range of $850 to $16,900.
