Community in Houston, Texas
Sharpstown
is a
master-planned community
in the
Southwest Management District
(formerly Greater Sharpstown),
Southwest
Houston, Texas
.
[1]
It was one of the first communities to be built as a
master-planned
,
automobile
centered community and the first in Houston.
Frank Sharp
(1906?1993), the developer of the subdivision, made provisions not only for homes but also for schools, shopping and recreation areas. While this model has been duplicated countless times in the past fifty years, at the time it was quite revolutionary, attracting national media attention. The development was dedicated on March 13, 1955.
Overview
[
edit
]
The residential
architecture
in Sharpstown consists of post?
World War II
bungalows
, modern and traditional homes. The materials used in building these homes were of sound quality and have withstood the wear and tear of the
baby boomer
generation as well as the test of time.
History
[
edit
]
Sharp donated a 300-foot-wide strip of land through the development to the state of Texas for construction of the Southwest Freeway (
Interstate 69
/
U.S. Highway 59
). This routing ensured easy access from
Downtown Houston
to homes in the neighborhood, as well as to
PlazAmericas
(formerly Sharpstown Mall and Sharpstown Center) (1961), Houston's first
air-conditioned
, enclosed
shopping mall
.
From the 1980 U.S. Census to the 1990 Census, many African-Americans left traditional
African-American neighborhoods
and entered parts of
Southwest Houston
such as Sharpstown. The Hispanic population increased by an amount between 1,000 and 3,500 per square mile. Many Asian-Americans also moved into the Sharpstown area, creating one of the largest concentrations of Asian-Americans in Houston. Glenda Kay Joe, an Asian community leader, said in a 1991
Houston Chronicle
article that the Sharpstown Civic Association and the
Southwest Advocate
newspaper opposed Asian-American settlement in Sharpstown. According to Joe, once Sharpstown residents became accustomed with Asian immigrants, the opposition disappeared.
[2]
Sharpstown was affected by the
Sharpstown scandal
. The scandal combined with a set of apartment complexes that became run-down ensured that Sharpstown became a neighborhood surrounded by
crime
by the mid-to-late 1990s.

Crime increased in the 1990s with the deterioration of area apartment complexes.
[3]
A 1992
Houston Chronicle
article described Sharpstown as "a racially mixed neighborhood with a strong
Vietnamese
community."
[4]
With Sharpstown's close-in location, there is renewed interest in revitalizing the neighborhood. In 2005, median home prices in Sharpstown had roughly doubled since 2000.

In a 2007
Houston Press
article journalist John Nova Lomax said "residential Sharpstown never changes" and that "the houses are still decent and the apartments still rotten."
[5]
In 2010,
Mary Ellen Carroll
, a conceptual artist who taught at Rice University's School of Architecture realized Phase I of the work
prototype 180
. The catalytic moment was the 180 degree revolution of the single-family home and its surrounding lot at 6513 Sharpview in Sharpstown Section I. prototype 180 occupies architecture to make it perform, albeit as a work of art. It is a collection of processes that utilize land-use policy or no zoning, and the lack thereof in Houston as a material condition and is an example of 'considered urbanism'. The site functions as a visible museum of post-war planned communities and architectural interventions. prototype 180 raises questions regarding planning and policy in aging first ring developments.
[6]
In 2017, the structure that had been compromised during
Hurricane Harvey
was 'unbuilt' in a performance on November 11, 2017 in front of an invited, live public audience for Phase II of prototype 180. The unbuilding of the structure was titled
Daringly Unbuilt
and was introduced by the Charles Renfro, a partner in the firm
Diller, Scofidio + Renfro
and the performance artist
Joseph Keckler
sang a requiem accompanied accompanied by the acclaimed violinist
Ruben Rengel
.
Phase III for prototype 180 will be the rebuilding of the structure that will be done with a proprietary process that incorporates a substrate made by reconstituting the salvaged building materials to rebuild the original structure and the creation of an ethno-botanic garden in the land surrounding the structure.
During the same year the
Houston Press
named Sharpstown the 2010 "Best Hidden Neighborhood." The
Houston Press
stated that Sharpstown "is less a "hidden" neighborhood than it is one that's undervalued and underrated."
[7]
In 2013
Houstonia
magazine stated that Sharpstown was one of the "25 Hottest Neighborhoods" in Houston.
[8]
Cityscape
[

Government and infrastructure
[
edit
]
The
Houston Fire Department
operates the Fire Station 51 Sharpstown along
Bellaire Boulevard
, a part of Fire District 68.
[9]
Station 51 opened in 1962. Since then it had two facelifts and a renovation in the financial year of 1999.
[10]
After the 2012 redristricting process, Sharpstown is split between
Texas's 7th congressional district
and
Texas's 9th congressional district
The neighborhood is served by two
Houston Police Department
patrol divisions. Areas north and west of
Interstate 69
/
U.S. Route 59
are served by the Midwest Patrol Division. Areas south and east of I-69/U.S. 59 are served by the Fondren Patrol Division.
[11]
The portion that is now in the Midwest Patrol Division was formerly in the Westside Patrol Division.
[12]
At one time the police department operated the Sharpstown-area police storefront at
Bellaire Boulevard
at Rogerdale.
[13]
The City of Houston Health Department operates the Sharpstown Health Services clinic.
[14]
Harris Health System
(formerly Harris County Hospital District) designated Valbona Health Center (formerly People's Health Center) in
Greater Sharpstown
for ZIP code 77074. The nearest public hospital is
Ben Taub General Hospital
in the
Texas Medical Center
.
[15]
Political representation
[
edit
]
The City of Houston instituted the current nine city council districts in 1979. Sharpstown has been districted in District F since 1980. District council members elected to the Houston City Council have been past presidents of the Sharpstown Civic Association ? John Goodner (1980?1993), Ray Driscoll (1994?1999), Mark Ellis (2000?2003),
M.J. Khan
(2004?2010), and
Aloysius Hoang
(2010/11 ? prior to the City of Houston redistricting). As of 2011, Sharpstown was redistricted into District J where Mike Laster is the newly elected council member.
Houston City Council
District J now covers Sharpstown.
[16]
District J was created to allow Hispanics to more easily elect representatives who cater to them.
[17]
Robert Jara, a political consultant of the group Campaign Strategies, drew the boundaries of District J in order to ensure that Sharpstown and
Gulfton
were together in one area. That way, the Hispanic residents could lobby for influence with their city council representative, whether he or she is of Hispanic origin or not.
[18]
City Council District F previously covered Sharpstown. As of 2008 M. J. Khan represented the district.
[19]
[20]
[21]
In 1989, during a city council race, many in Sharpstown voted for Jim Westmoreland for an at-large position. In one precinct 68.5 percent of the voting residents voted for him. Westmoreland drew controversy after reports of a joke that was characterized as racist spread. Westmoreland was defeated in that race. In a 1989
Houston Chronicle
article, Nancy Palm, a Republican Party activist from western Houston, said that the residents who voted for Westmoreland had social ties with them and did not see the controversy as significant.
[22]
In the first 1991
Mayor of Houston
election most Sharpstown voters voted for
Bob Lanier
.
[23]
[24]
By December 3, 1991, increases in crime and changes of demographics in southwestern Houston neighborhoods lead to many challengers desiring to fill the city council seat of District F.
[25]
In 2005 Khan promoted an anti-graffiti campaign in Sharpstown and other communities in his district.
[26]
Culture, parks, and recreation
[
edit
]
The city operates Sharpstown Park and the Sharpstown Golf Course along
Bellaire Boulevard
, in Sharpstown Country Club Estates Harbor Town Addition.
[27]
[28]
[29]
In 2003 Wendy Grossman of the
Houston Press
said that the course "looks like a rundown city park with yellow paint chipping off the curb." The course has an on-site pro shop and an on-site restaurant behind the shop. An employee in the on-site pro shop stated that Sharpstown Park Golf Course was the flattest course in the city.
[30]
The golf course first opened in the 1950s as the Sharpstown Country Club Golf Course. At the time it housed fifty sand traps, five lakes, and a special kind of grass. The lakes had
bass
and
perch
. In 1964 the $50,000 Houston Golf Classic was at the golf course. In 1976, the owners of the course had not made a payment on their $5 million mortgage in five years, leading to the course's closure. The City of Houston proceeded to buy about two-thirds of the course two years later; real estate developers bought the rest of the course. The course is the home course of the
Wisdom High School
golf team; the school is about 4 miles (6.4 km) from the course.
[30]
The city operates the Sharpstown Green Park at 6300 Sharpview Drive.
[28]
The city operates the Sharpstown Community Center at 6600 Harbor Town Drive.
