What People Are Saying About Williams Tower

Featured Review

The View – Architect Philip Johnson envisioned a structure that would cut through the ceiling of Houston smog. His creation, a striking, neo-deco tower of power, penetrates the urban sprawl with a soaring, 64-story upward thrust. It's one of the tallest suburban office buildings in the world. Capping the tower is a 7,000-watt revolving light that cuts through the humid night sky like a searchlight beam in Gotham City. – – The Appeal – Equally impressive is the nearby Water Wall, a shimmering man-made feature that sends thousands of gallons of water hypnotically…

Was the Trasco Tower

by Blogging Bebe Butters

The waterwall is refreshing and dogs like to run in the soft lawn. There are not any doggie bag stations, but there are trashcans. Smokers and parking are a challenge here. You can park at the Galleria IV's Nordstrom.

Refreshing Park with Lush Lawn

by HoustonTexReview , Citysearch Contributor

This is not an official dog park; however, the waterwall is refreshing and dogs like to run in the lush lawn that proceeds it. Even though there is water misting in your faces, you will need to bring water for you and your pooch. The waterwall smells of chlorine, so don't let Fido drink from it.

There are not any doggie bag stations, but there are trash cans. Kids play in the lawn, so try to encourage your dog to go to the restroom by the trees that line the park.

People do smoke at this park which is a bummer.

Parking is a challenge here. You can park at the Galleria IV's Nordstrom. Area: Galleria / Transco

  • Pros: Waterwall
  • Cons: Parking; Not really a dog park

Houston WaterWall

by ClogginKitty

My fiancee was highly disappointed last night on Valentines Day. He had it all planned out to give me my engagement ring there since he took me there on our first date to Houston. Why would they turn the lights off at night when its in its most beautiful state?? Is the water still turned on?

Why, why, just why do they have to change the operating hours

by willyman0282

For anyone who has lived in Houston, he/she will know at 6 P.M. the sun is still way up there in the sky. The water wall is at it's most beautiful sight during the evening when all the lights are on and in contrast to the night sky. Why would anyone turn the water wall off by 6 P.M., now when I drive pass it after dark, it's just that, pitch dark. I just want to say: " nice way of using your brain, idiot."
