Harwood International’s environmental philosophy is to give back to the community, through implementation and preservation of green space. We concentrate on including urban revitalization and improvements in the environmental and social attributes of each of our individual developments. The 17-city blocks of the district of Harwood master-planned community has been carefully assembled with The Katy Trailhead on the north end of the district and the Woodall Rodgers Deck Park on the south end of the district.

  • Over 2,000 trees planted throughout the district of Harwood.
  • All office buildings have bike racks as part of the initiative to promote “Walk to Life.”
  • 6.5 acres of land at the district of Harwood  is devoted to landscaped gardens, elaborate green roofs, and public green spaces.
  • Reassurance Program includes wider and well-lit sidewalks to increase walk-ability.

Marie GabrielleTM Gardens

At the heart of Harwood, Uptown’s newest district, lies an enchanting 1.5-acre European rooftop garden. Beautiful oak and river birch trees surround a spectacular reflecting pool, creating the perfect setting for exquisite ceremonies, receptions and events, whether family or business. The Marie GabrielleTM Gardens are a part of the 6.5 acres of greenspace in the district of Harwood.

Additional Marie GabrielleTM Gardens Information

The Marie GabrielleTM Gardens are Harwood’s hidden jewel. Not only are they the perfect place to meet and greet or simply sit and contemplate the day, they are the key to understanding the very ethos that is Harwood.

Sure, elegant buildings of glass and steel punctuate the skyline but it is at ground level that one embraces the heart and soul of Harwood. With car parking and servicing ‘below deck’, so to speak, ‘ground level’ has been given over to the people who live and work in Harwood.

It is nature’s place, an evergreen oasis for all to enjoy.
