Project Row Houses

Project Row Houses is a development in the Third Ward area of Houston, Texas. Project Row Houses includes a group of shotgun houses restored in the 1990s.[2] Eight houses serve as studios for visiting artists.[3] Those houses are art studios for art related to African-American themes. A row behind the art studio houses single mothers.[2]
