    I've been a member a long time, but I've finally decided I won't be back to this location…read more Air conditioning has been broken or working poorly for the last few summers and attempts to repair haven't worked. Currently have "temporary cooling". The parent club of this location has removed equipment and sent it to its sister club. The equipment is adequate, but messy. No attempt to make sure dumbbells, plates etc. are put away after use. Its messy. The lack of investment in maintenance and facilities indicates that eventually this club will close. The parking is a pain. Although member parking is validated, the old ticket system would not work frequently, which means waiting and negotiating with parking management to get out. The newly installed program has similar problems. Parking management is not friendly. The on site staff is friendly and do their best under poor conditions. If you are looking for a fitness center on the east side of downtown, don't bother with the downtown club.

    Amazing and friendly staff. Within just a couple visits they have your name and number memorized :)…read moreClean facilities. Nice locker room. Decent free weights. Decent cardio equipment. Ok functional training area. Nice full size basketball court. Decent indoor track. Couple of nice group rooms. Overall, the gym is clean, easy access for downtown workers and livers. It is a little pricey, but you also get most of the gym to yourself often. It is almost never busy, which I actually like quit a bit. No waiting, etc... Food service is currently closed, not enough members have come back yet. It was good before the big cough. There are also 2 racquetball courts.

    Menil Park is the large field that is right next to the Menil Museum. If you're into arts and have…read morenot been to The Menil Collection, I highly recommend you check out this FREE museum. Make sure you reserve tickets during the pandemic. After the museum, spend some time outdoors at the Menil Park. This a great spot for a hangout with friends or a picnic in the field. While you have time, walk over the Rothko Chapel next door as well and enjoy some time in front of the Broken Obelisk structure. The Broken Obelisk is an iconic sculpture sitting atop a reflecting pool. Six of these sculptures exist across the US and the one in Houston was dedicated to MLK at the request of John and Dominique de Menil in 1971. Parking is available on the streets surrounding The Menil. The park is within a neighborhood in the Montrose District of town. This park may get busy during peak hours, but there is always a parking spot available. Just pay attention to the no parking signs as Montrose is a heavy tow district.

    Visit on museum Thursday's. This was my first time hearing about this museum, and it was very…read moreinteresting. (Menil Museum has 3-4 buildings thats part of the Menil company). I parked on Main street, between Menil and Saint Aug Hotel. Which is two streets from the main Menil building. Which was a bit confusing to me. Trying to get to the museum. To be honest I didn't see any signs of a park. Just grass field and buildings.

    I've been to Emancipation Park so many times but this time was so scary. I read the program that…read moresaid we couldn't bring a cooler or glass alcohol drinks. I seen a lot of people with coolers and alcohol in glass containers. The one thing that really scared me is that I saw someone with medium size knife in the back of his belt. This time we missed one of the best singer we cane to see. It was not fair for them to play music from a dj for over 1 hour instead of having the singer perform. I won't come back here again it's not safe enough. So sad!

    I love Third Ward, especially its history rooted in Emancipation Park. The recent Juneteenth…read moreFestival held there was overflowing with Black joy, much like many of the other events I've attended there on there (Jazzy Sundays, Zydeco Festival, etc.). The nearby street parking makes it easy to access and the plentiful grassy areas, shaded huts, and even splash zone and well-maintained playground makes it an ideal family-friendly community gathering space. There was a full-on food cookoff and I got to meet some incredible chefs serving navy beans and rice, crawfish cornbread (a first for me!), and hands down the most tender barbecue I've tasted in all of Houston courtesy of Chef G. What I loved most was that even with the crowd and all the community and vendor booths, it never felt packed.Each community booth spotlighted a different historically Black neighborhood in Houston, and the live performances on stage kept the vibe going. To learn the deep history of Emancipation Park, there's a clean, beautiful mosaic pillar with biographical info on Richard Allen, serving as a reminder that this isn't just a park, but moreso a monument to freedom, resilience, and celebration.
