We're celebrating!
Join us for our grand opening!
Dear friends,
CoHousing Houston has built the first cohousing community in Texas. It has been a long time coming but we're finally here!
We are so grateful for everyone who has followed along and supported keeping this dream alive. It has been an unexpected journey in many ways (hello pandemic). It's also been a way for a small group of people to change the equation on how neighbors live together in a more connected and sustainable way.
So, we're celebrating & hope you can join us for one of our events July 31-Aug 2, 2026. We'd love to show you the Common House, some of our homes, and the landscaping that is transforming our clay construction lot into something beautiful. Check out our events below and RSVP.
You may notice we are migrating away from CoHousing Houston after the Grand Opening. The cohousing residence will be known as East End Commons (or EECo) once the development stage is complete. You can get a sneak peek at what EECo has to offer HERE.
In community,
Your Texas cohousers!
