THIS MONTH WILL BE THE 2-YEAR MARK SINCE
WOODLANDS FOUNDER GEORGE MITCHELL DIED.
MITCHELL PURCHASED LAND IN 1964 FOR THE
GROGAN COCHRAN LUMBER COMPANY, WHICH
EVENTUALLY LED TO A $50,000,000 LOAN
APPROVED BY THE GOVERNMENT IN 1972 UNDER
THE HOUSING ACT OF 1970 TO BEGIN THE
WOODLANDS PROJECT. TWO YEARS LATER PEOPLE
CELEBRATED THE GRAND OPENING OF THE
WOODLANDS AND THE HOME SALES BEGAN
WHICH RESULTED IN THE WOODLANDS BECOMING THE FASTEST-GROWING, NEW HOME SALES IN
THE HOUSTON METRO AREA. IN 1990 THE
WOODLANDS OPENED THE CYNTHIA WOODS
MITCHELL PAVILION, WHICH NOW HOSTS A VARIETY
OF CROWD-DRAWING CONCERTS AND SHOWS.
WITH A POPULATION OF ABOUT 8,000 PEOPLE IN
THE 80’S AND NOW OVER 109,000, THE
WOODLANDS HAS GROWN TO HAVE SOME OF
THE MOST AMAZING RESTAURANTS, COMPANIES,
SHOPS AND MUCH MORE.
