right Meyerland Plaza is a large shopping center located in southwest Houston, Texas, United States. Meyerland Plaza is located in the Meyerland neighborhood of Houston and is just outside of the 610 Loop. ==History== Meyerland Plaza opened on October 31, 1957. Around the time the ''Houston Chronicle'' stated that Meyerland Plaza was "in the heart of the luxury residential additions of Southwest Houston." A ''Houston Chronicle'' article from October 27, 1957 stated that Meyerland Plaza was developed to maintain the suburban atmosphere that was present in surrounding areas.〔Gonzalez, J.R. "(Meyerland Plaza in Pictures )." ''Houston Chronicle''. February 3, 2010. Retrieved on February 15, 2010.〕 Meyerland Plaza was originally built as Houston's second "regional mall".〔Rutledge, Tanya.
