A Special Thank you!

Cortland Museum District is an absolutely beautiful and stunning community! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how clean, modern, and well-maintained everything is. The atmosphere feels upscale yet welcoming, and the location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the Museum District, close to great restaurants, parks, and downtown Houston.

A special thank you to Mgbore, the Community Relations Associate, for making my experience wonderful. She greeted me with a warm, genuine smile and... gave such a thorough, detailed tour of the property. I never felt rushed, she patiently answered every question and made sure I had all the information I needed.

The amenities are just as impressive, from the resort-style pool and modern fitness center to the beautiful resident lounge and outdoor spaces, everything feels thoughtfully designed.

If you’re looking for a place that combines luxury living, prime location, and exceptional service, I highly recommend checking out Cortland Museum District!

Friendly & helpful staff

I needed temporary housing for 3 months & was put up here & the apartment was well equipped and laid out. The entire staff was friendly and helpful, Ericka in particular dealing with the issues involving a temporary housing company.

The service here has been exceptional compared to typical rental experiences. The front desk staff and Maggie are consistently friendly and efficient, and the valet service has been a convenient benefit for both myself and my guests. Throughout the past six months of my lease, the property has remained clean, quiet, and well managed.

The Cortland Museum District has been our home for 6 years and it has been a pleasure to be a resident here. We went through the pandemic, the terrible freeze and hurricane Beryl. The building is an outstanding landmark to the style and quality of Gerald Hines. But it is the present management team and staff of Stephanie, Erica, Maleek and Maggie that have made all the difference. They have created a community energy that has been far superior in their professionalism, warmth and true desire to... meet the needs of the residents.

Thank you so much for sharing your incredible experience! We’re honored to have had you as a resident for the past six years and are thrilled to hear that your time here, through both challenging and memorable moments, has been positive.

It’s... wonderful to know that the building’s iconic design and quality resonate with you, but even more rewarding to hear that our management team—Stephanie, Erica, Maleek, and Maggie—has made such a meaningful impact. Their professionalism, warmth, and dedication to meeting residents’ needs are exactly what we strive for, and your recognition of their efforts truly means a lot.

We’re grateful to have residents like you who appreciate the sense of community we aim to foster, and we look forward to continuing to provide a welcoming and supportive home for all who live here.
