I'm not a local, but I've always considered the core of Houston to be the roughly triangular area with its corners at Downtown, Uptown-Galleria, and the TMC. Not only because those are the areas with the densest and tallest concentrations of highrises, but also because the districts in between contain the majority of major civic institutions and culturally notable neighborhoods. They are also the areas - i.e. Upper Kirby, River Oaks, Allen Parkway, Midtown & Museum District - that are seeing the majority of highrise infill outside those corner points.
