Former Texaco Country Club is now part of City’s Coolgreen Park
ChevronTexaco today announced the donation of a 130-acre golf course, formerly The Texaco Country Club, to the Houston Parks Board and the City of Houston. The golf course, combined with an adjacent 34-acre tract of parkland acquired by the Houston Parks Board, is now a 164-acre new city park named Coolgreen Park.
The park is adjacent to Greens Bayou just east of Loop 610, at the intersection of Maxey Road and Coolgreen Street. In addition to a public golf course open for play, the park features wooded acreage that harbors amazing wildlife such as deer, raccoons, fox, herons, egret, kingfishers and ducks.
