The Shops at Houston Center

Although it's not the city's largest shopping center, The Shops at Houston Center is a godsend for downtown professionals and visitors. The complex extends across two blocks and sits beneath an atrium, so you can be sure that shopping is a bright, airy prospect. A food court is available, and the facility is connected to the downtown tunnel system. Its approximately sixty businesses include Dress Barn, a Hallmark store, Jos. A. Bank, a fitness center, and a bank branch. You'll also find plenty of options for fast-food or sit-down dining.
