  • Immigration Through Investment
    IMMIGRATION THROUGH INVESTMENT THROUGH IMMIGRATION HOUSTON INVEST DOWNTOWN INVEST PROJECT SUMMARY HOUSTON The project will consist of approximately 240 units in an 8-story building. The plan comprises 3 floors of parking with 5 floors of residential units above. The project site is an entire Downtown Houston city block, Block 384, consisting of 62,500 square feet, or 1.4348 acres. The project is being developed in partnership with Allied Realty, a Houston based multifamily developer founded in 1985. Downtown Houston has implemented a tax incentive program to encourage residential development of the Downtown area of Houston. The project is eligible for the program and has been approved by the Downtown Living Initiative board. The program will provide reimbursement of 75% of the increase in property tax revenue associated with the development up to $15,000 a unit. PROPERTY LOCATION The site is located in Downtown Houston near the northwest intersection of I-45 & Hwy 59. The site is within close proximity to the Toyota Center, BBVA Compass Stadium, Minute Maid Park, Theater District and all of the downtown entertainment and hospitality venues. With over 800 million dollars in commercial development to be completed by 2017, the current residential unit capacity in downtown will fall short of satisfying the ever-growing demand. For this reason the City of Houston is welcoming needed residential projects like Block 384. EB5 INVESTMENT Job Creation: Our economists have determined that 319 jobs will be created for this project. The economic impacts were derived using RIMS II Houston final demand and direct effect multipliers. This is sufficient to meet the EB5 investor jobs requirement and provides a very safe 32.9% cushion for job creation, as we are only requiring 240 jobs for this project.
