Crafting a master plan that truly preserves and even enhances its natural surroundings was a goal of the developers of the Bridgeland community, and one proving auspicious for its residents.

The Bridgeland community is located within and along the eastern boundaries of the Katy Prairie, an environmental gem that provides refuge and foraging areas for more than 300 species of resident and migratory birds, as well as various mammals, reptiles and amphibians. Bridgeland developers work closely with the Katy Prairie Conservancy to protect the valuable lands, including the historical Cypress Creek corridor, a significant creek system occurring along the Bridgeland community’s northern boundaries. Residents will enjoy the beauty of the Cypress Creek area when the first phase of a six-mile trail opens later this year. Winding through a canopy of trees and including environmental signage, the trail will include observation sites where hikers may glimpse some of the 140 species of birds already identified in the area. Mallard and Ramey lakes, natural lakes existing within the Cypress Creek corridor, also will be conserved.
