First Montrose Commons Historic District, located between Westheimer Road and Richmond Avenue, is a historic and walkable Houston neighborhood with early-20th-century bungalows and a tree-lined streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Westheimer at Montrose Boulevard, where patios, galleries, and late-night eateries set a steady street-level hum. Architectural details lean Craftsman and cottage, with deep porches and mature oaks framing narrow lots. Nearby cultural pillars such as the Menil Collection and Rothko Chapel shape a museum-and-mural rhythm. Buffalo Bayou Park and the H‑Town greenway network add long, linear routes for running and cycling. Side streets stay calm, while Montrose’s dining and design scene keeps the edges active.
