Apartment Buildings in Montrose and the Museum District
Montrose and the Museum District cover the blocks between Westheimer, Montrose Boulevard, Main Street and Hermann Park. This directory tracks 15 buildings of 50 or more units across them — 4,620 apartments — spread over four ZIP codes, with the bulk in 77006 and 77004.
This category holds both the oldest and the largest records in the entire directory. The Block at Montrose dates to 1958, and The Circle at Hermann Park, with 795 apartments, is the single biggest address anywhere on this site. Hanover Montrose is the tallest at 30 floors, followed by Cortland Museum District at 24 and The Museum Tower at 19. Recent construction has been steady rather than dramatic: UNITI Montrose opened in 2024 and The Heron Museum District in 2025.
Location is the draw. The Museum of Fine Arts, the Menil Collection, Hermann Park, the Houston Zoo and Rice University all sit inside or on the edge of this area, and the METRORail Red Line runs down Main and Fannin past the museum stops. Montrose itself is a walkable grid of restaurants and shops along Westheimer, which is why the mid-rises here tend to be built to the sidewalk rather than set back behind parking.
Every listing below carries its street address, unit count, year built, floor count, leasing phone number and the property’s own website.
