East River is a place where culture and business collide — and it's going up right in Houston.
The 126-acre development going up along Buffalo Bayou in Fifth Ward will include a mix of retail, living spaces and offices.

The first of four phases planned for the East River, which will provide breathtaking views of the city, is expected to begin construction this summer, per KTRK-13's Jeff Ehling.
According to Chris Baldwin of Paper City Magazine, it's the largest site still available within the 610 Loop, allowing for the creation of a new mini city within the city.
"We are really focused on creating a very walkable, inviting, outdoor environment in all our project. There will also be 360 multi-family units," said Anna Deans with Houston-based developers Midway, as reported by Ehling. "We are very fortunate. While it seems counterintuitive being located on the bayou, it is actually high and dry."

A visit to the site right now will reveal a massive mural where people are already taking selfies and a makeshift drive-in theater for your enjoyment, per Ehling.
It will take several years to finish the entire project.
