Arguably at Houston’s most valuable corner, Post Oak Blvd and San Felipe Rd, the project enjoys being a part of an immediate region with thriving growth, constant new residential construction, outstanding consumer income levels, and <5 min access to three major freeway thoroughfares - I-610 W (307,000 cpd), US-59 (341,000 cpd) and I-10 (338,000 cpd). In addition, the project is located seconds away from The Galleria, Houston’s premier shopping destination that has more than 30 million visitors each year and just recently completed a $250mm renovation adding an additional 130,000 SF of retail, increasing the total retail space to 2.4mm SF. Median household income levels in nearby wealthy neighborhoods - Uptown, The Memorial Villages, River Oaks, and West University - are $90,000 - $120,000.

  • The Shape of Things to Come: Houston Storm Water Management Post-Harvey
    The Shape of Things to Come: Houston Storm Water Management Post-Harvey John S. Grounds, III, PhD, PE, CFM, D.WRE Vice President, Director of Water Resources November 26, 2018 The Shape of Things to Come: Houston Storm Water Management Post-Harvey Hurricane Harvey has proven to be an historic event on many fronts. While the scale and breadth of destruction from the record rainfall cannot be understated, Harvey demonstrated widespread failures of a system intended to protect the fourth most populous city in the country. Numerous public and private entities are looking ahead to rebuilding and fostering new development in the most “flood-proof” ways possible. Changes to the way data is gathered and used for floodplain mapping was underway prior to Harvey, specifically Atlas 14, which is a compendium of precipitation-frequency estimates by region. What will be the impact of these changes on Houston’s floodplains? How are the regulatory agencies changing design and analysis criteria and building codes? What are the resulting implications? What will adoption of these changes mean for jurisdictional bodies? Read on for a current assessment of possible changes, and how they could drastically change Houston’s landscape. “WHILE REDUCING RISK IS POSSIBLE, ELIMINATING RISK IS NOT.”: HOUSTON’S HISTORY WITH STORM WATER MANAGEMENT The Allen brothers landed in Houston in 1832 where White Oak Bayou meets Buffalo Bayou, on the northern edge of present day downtown. The first steam ship arrived in Houston from Galveston Bay in 1837. By 1840 an accumulation of sunken ships along that stretch of Buffalo Bayou made access to downtown so challenging that a $2,000 taxpayer-funded program began removing the wrecks.

  • Can a Market-Oriented City Also Be Inclusive?
    Can a Market-Oriented City Also Be Inclusive? WILLIAM FULTON Rice University nce a traditional Southern city — at least in terms of its racial composi- tion — Houston has emerged in the last 30-plus years as one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the United States. At the same time, however, Houston represents a challenge for inclusiveness that is both unique and important. It has a reputation as one of the most market-oriented cities Oin the nation for real estate development — and yet it nevertheless has a regulatory system, an abundance of land, and an uncoordinated set of financial incentives for economic development and real estate development, all of which combined create a sub-optimal situation for equitable development. At a glance, Houston would appear to be a city of unparalleled opportunity for this diverse population, and in many ways, it is. The Houston metropolitan area has almost tripled in population since 1980, from 2.2 million to 6.3 million. It was the fastest-growing metro area in the United States in both 2014 and 2015, according to the US Census Bureau. Houston has moved far beyond the traditional white-black racial dynamic that once characterized the region. As Figure 1 shows, approximately 40 percent of the residents in Harris County, the region’s core county, are Hispanic, a number that is expected to grow to 60 percent by 2050. Houston has one of the biggest South Asian populations in the United States — 118,000 Indian-Americans alone — much of which is located in suburban Fort Bend County, especially the affluent suburb of Sugar Land.
