Five-year celebration planned

The facility includes a 6,000-square-foot community center, a fitness center, two lighted tennis courts, two playgrounds and a resort-style pool with two 30-foot tower slides, diving wells, water volleyball and a spray park. Residents also enjoy catch-and-release fishing, disc golf, a maze garden and other themed parks, complimentary use of recreation equipment and classes and community events planned by an on-site activities director. [...] Bridgeland will have a larger Town Center designed as an employment center and shopping, dining and entertainment hub for the community and surrounding area. [...] the state of Texas is moving rapidly toward the extension of the Grand Parkway from U.S. 290 to I-45, which would mean an easy 20-minute commute from Bridgeland to the new Exxon Mobil campus opening in 2014. [...] we can refine our existing plan for the Town Center, which will be located in Bridgeland along the Grand Parkway, said Houghton.
