46 As agreed by Steven Klineberg, there is unlikely to be any other investment in the greater Houston area that will impact quality of life, quality of space. One that will: 1. Transform an underutilized asset into one that re-defines Houston 2. Provide equitably distributed parks & recreation amenities, making the area #1 for off-street trails 3. Increase the health of our citizens, our environment, and our economy. Thank you!
