Mayor Bill White was honored with the Allen Award for Civic Enhancement during a luncheon on Thursday.
The award is handed out annually by the Central Houston Board of Directors.
President Robert Eury said, “the Mayor has done so much to enhance the lives of Houstonians,” during his years in office.
It was five years ago when Mayor White first announced his vision for Discovery Green in the heart of downtown. This month Discovery Green welcomed its one millionth visitor!
Mayor White, who is term limited and running for the U.S. Senate, says he believes that it will take more green space, jobs, commuter rail and housing to entice more people to live and work downtown.
