Muse at Museum District

Westdale Asset Management runs Muse at Museum District, a five-story building on Richmond Avenue in Montrose. It carries a green-building certification, and its twenty-one floor plans range from compact studios to two bedrooms approaching 1,500 square feet.

Shared amenities are straightforward: a resort-style pool courtyard, a 24-hour fitness center with separate yoga and spin studios, an outdoor lanai, a business center, and a dog park with a washing station. Interiors include granite counters, stainless appliances and in-unit washers and dryers.

Richmond Avenue is one of the more useful cross-town streets in this part of Montrose, which makes the address practical for commuters heading to Greenway Plaza, Upper Kirby or the Museum District. Bars and restaurants are within walking distance, the Houston Museum of Natural Science and Rice Village are short drives, and the Texas Medical Center is reachable down Main or Fannin.
