Mission
See Schedule OEstablished in 1986, Buffalo Bayou Partnership (BBP) is the non-profit transforming and revitalizing Buffalo Bayou. The organization's geographic focus is the 10-square mile stretch of the bayou that flows from Shepherd Drive, through the heart of downtown into the East End, and on to the Port of Houston Turning Basin. BBP creates and cares for inclusive public spaces such as Buffalo Bayou Park, constructs hike and bike trails, removes trash and debris from the waterway, and promotes the economic and social well-being of surrounding neighborhoods through affordable housing. BBP also activates the bayou with unique programs, public art, volunteer events, and recreational opportunities that enrich Houston's quality of life.
