The Ismaili Center Houston, a massive, eye-catching cultural center, continues to take shape in the heart of Houston. The seven-story structure, with two of those levels underground, will serve as a gathering place for Ismaili Muslims and members of the Houston community at large – where Ismailis can pray and others can take part in programming such as performing arts, conferences, educational seminars and civic events – while being surrounded by gardens, green space and water amenities such as fountains. Construction began last year and is expected to be complete by the summer of 2025.
