Houston's Outdoor Skating Rink - Discovery Green



St. Joseph Medical Center ICE at Discovery Green presented by the Houston Chronicle and Houston Area Land Rover Centres has been a smash hit with Houstonians with more than 250,000 visitors over the last two years enjoying the experience of outdoor ice skating.

The Downtown Houston skyline is perfect backdrop for outdoor ice skating on the model boat basin, which is chilled to a frosty 22 degrees using recycled water from Kinder Lake and powered by renewable energy. Even the ice rink border is made from recycled plastic!
