When you land
Things to do in Houston
Houston runs on energy, and much of the industry’s business still gets done face to face: in downtown towers, along the Energy Corridor on the west side and at the refineries and petrochemical plants that stretch toward the coast. Add the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, the Port of Houston and NASA’s Johnson Space Center, and you have a city where executives, physicians and engineers are constantly moving between meetings across a metro area that sprawls in every direction.
