Questions about 77003
How far is 77003 from downtown Houston, and what transit serves it?
EaDo sits directly east of downtown across US-59/I-69, so most of the ZIP is one to two miles from the central business district. METRORail's Green and Purple lines stop at the EaDo/Stadium station, and I-45, I-10 and I-69 are all nearby. TxDOT's North Houston Highway Improvement Project is planned to rebuild the freeways along EaDo's western edge, so check project maps for blocks near US-59.
What types of homes are in EaDo and the Second Ward?
Three- and four-story townhomes make up much of the newer housing in EaDo, alongside converted warehouse lofts and mid-rise apartment buildings. The Second Ward side has early-1900s bungalows and cottages mixed with newer infill homes.
Is flooding a consideration when buying in 77003?
Buffalo Bayou forms the northern edge of the ZIP, and some blocks near the bayou fall within mapped floodplains. Check any address in the Harris County Flood Control District's Flood Education Mapping Tool and review the seller's flood disclosure, which Texas requires.
What parks and outdoor spaces are in or near 77003?
Guadalupe Plaza Park and the Navigation Esplanade sit along Navigation Boulevard, and EaDog Park on Polk Street has fenced dog areas. Discovery Green is a short walk west across US-59, and the Buffalo Bayou East trail network runs along the northern edge.
