A low-slung winter sky sits over Market Square Park as the group gathers beneath iron lamps; the city’s loose-heeled past seems to unclench and breathe into the street. On this private, two-hour walk, a local guide threads together alleyway lore and the clink of pint glasses, moving from Market Square through Downtown Houston and into the Warehouse District where exposed-brick facades and converted warehouses set the stage for old stories and newer brews.
