Best Houston place to take pictures with downtown building’s background. From the rooftop Looks stunning day or night. This is located on an old post office distribution center, the outside May look like a boring building, but the inside is cool, a lot of quick service restaurants, it’s also a concert venue and an art galleria. You can access the rooftop for pictures. I highly recommend it. Parking is free if there is no event (like a concert going on)
