Ofcourse the biggest business district by number of office space is Downtown, and Uptown comes second to no other district. Then you got West Chase and Energy Corridor. Would you consider Greenspoint a business district? And are there any other major business districts? If so, what are they?

Downtown is the biggest
TMC comes second in terms of employees
Uptown is third
The Energy corridor is 4th with over 20M sq feet
Greenspoint is definitely a business district with more office space than DT San Antonio
You forgot Greenway Plaza it is 6th
Westchase is 7th

Sugarland and The Woodlands are others
The Ship Channel is technically a business district too
Midtown/ Montrose and Allen Parkway are also sizeable districts that are counted as distinct from Downtown.

The new Exxon Campus will most probably evolve into a 13th

Where is the galleria on this list? I thought it was pretty significant alone and probably bigger than The Energy Corridor at least....for now

The Galleria is a mall, not a business district. The District around said mall is on my list as Uptown, the proper name for the district.

I am out of date, use to referring to the area as galleria not just the mall. Thanks for the continuing education of an old timer like me!
