Fairmont Museum District

On Dunlavy Street where Montrose, the Museum District and Upper Kirby run together, Fairmont Museum District is a five-story mid-rise and one of the larger single-address communities in the area. Its floor plan list is unusually deep, with more than seventy variations across one- and two-bedroom layouts.

The building is organized around interior clubhouses and a resort-style pool courtyard with cabanas and shaded outdoor seating, with a second pool deck above, plus a fitness center, a business center and a dog park. Staffed concierge service, controlled access and gated parking garages handle day-to-day logistics. Apartments include full-size washers and dryers, high ceilings and private balconies or patios.

Renters here trade a quieter block for short drives in several directions: the Menil Collection and the Montrose bar and restaurant corridor are minutes north, the Museum District institutions and Hermann Park sit to the southeast, and the Texas Medical Center is a straightforward run down Main or Fannin. Listing sources disagree on the completion year, so confirm the building’s vintage directly with the office.
