Mission
Created in 1986, the Buffalo Bayou Partnership is a coalition of civic, environmental, governmental and business representatives responsible for developing and facilitating improvements to the Buffalo Bayou greenway system. The Partnership coordinates the integration of major amenities into the Bayou greenbelt and seeks ways to increase community involvement through pedestrian, boating and biking amenities, permanent and temporary art installations, and other natural and built attractions. In the past seven years, the Partnership has raised and leveraged over $45 million for improvements along a 10-mile stretch of Buffalo Bayou from Shepherd Drive to the Turning Basin.
