Garden Oaks History

The Garden Oaks subdivision was established in 1937 by Edward L. Crain. Garden Oaks is located north of the Houston Heights and 610 Loop between Yale and Ella. Once a Houston secret, Garden Oaks is now becoming one of the Hottest areas to move too and build in. The over-sized lots and mature trees make one forget how close to the city they really are. Garden Oaks has it all including bungalows, cottages, ranch-style, contemporary, mid century and even farmhouse chic. This area is rich with culture and is only minutes away from unique dinning and entertainment.

  • Houstonia magazine stated that beginning in 2000 Garden Oaks began attracting “creative types” who wanted to establish families or who could not afford the Houston Heights or Montrose.
  • In 2010 Richard Connelly of the Houston Press said that Garden Oaks “used to be an underrated neighborhood but now is on everyone’s radar.”
  • In 2013 Houstonia stated that Garden Oaks was one of the “25 Hottest Neighborhoods” in Houston
