Long-Awaited Missing Mile Means Redevelopment

HOUSTON—The “missing mile” provides an important alternative route to the Katy Freeway and the new segment opens up public transportation options for those who work and live in the Energy Corridor.

Park Row The four-lane thoroughfare is parallel to the Katy Freeway (Interstate 10).

HOUSTON—The first segment of Park Row was developed in the 1970s in Park Ten by Wolff Companies, which envisioned the need for an alternate route to the Katy Freeway. The final mile connector project broke ground in 2013 and was opened to traffic earlier this month.

The four-lane thoroughfare that runs parallel to the Katy Freeway (Interstate 10), now stretches continuously from Dairy Ashford Road at Interstate 10 and continues to the west, through business parks, the Texas Medical Center–West Campus and into Katy. The newly completed segment, the “missing mile,” provides an important alternative route to the Katy Freeway and will open up public transportation options for those who work, live and play in the Energy Corridor.
