Constructed in 1927 and 1941 respectively, Esperson is the only iconic structure of Italian Renaissance in Houston’s most densified employment center. The property is currently 62% leased with 4 years remaining average lease term and is situated on 1.447 acres, a full city block. Located at the intersection of Rusk and Walker Street, Esperson has direct access to Houston’s METRO Rail and 7.5 mile underground tunnel system. Over the last 36 months, ownership invested nearly $9 million in non-leasing capital, positioning the asset at the top of its competitive set. Today, considerable value creation is achievable through rolling current in-place rents to market and through the lease up of the remaining 226,561 square feet of vacant space. Redeveloping and expanding Houston’s CBD infrastructure – realized through rebuilt streets – highways, new mass transit and enhanced public utilities coupled with new office, multi-family, and retail projects have transformed Houston’s core into a vibrant, modern 24/7 environment for people to live, work and play.

Over the past year, office employees have adapted to working from home, hospitality groups have rolled out new services options and staycations, residential properties have adopted technology to conduct virtual space tours and the construction sector has continued grow. More than $1.9 billion in construction projects are currently underway in Downtown Houston, an area defined by IH-45 to the west and south, Highway 59 to the east and IH-10 to the north. “In recent years, Downtown Houston has transitioned from a central business district to a prime destination to live, work, play and stay,” said Bob Eury, president and CEO of the Houston Downtown Management District. “While the pandemic has resulted in some set- backs, we’re seeing confidence in the market: businesses and office employees have adapted to the new normal with agility, developers are leveraging the opportunity to maximize construction across all sectors and the area remains a culinary and cultural destination for Houstonians and visitors.” Office Projects Downtown Houston remains a dynamic business center with a workforce of approximately 158,000 employees and more than 51 million square feet of office space.

Morris House AGENDA ITEM: D.1 OWNER: S.I. Morris Interests, Ltd. HPO FILE NO.: 15PL124 APPLICANT: David K. Morris DATE ACCEPTED: Apr-15-2015 LOCATION: 2 Waverly Court – Museum District HAHC HEARING DATE: May-21-2015 SITE INFORMATION Lot 2, Waverly Court, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. The site includes a historic two-story, contemporary style single-family residence facing west on Waverly Court at the corner of Bissonnet Street. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Protected Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Mr. and Mrs. S.I. Morris House is a contemporary residence at 2 Waverly Court in the Museum District south of downtown Houston. The house was designed by prominent Houston architect Seth Irwin “S.I.” Morris, Jr. (1914-2006) and completed in 1952 as his family’s home. Morris’ firms – Wilson, Morris & Crain, AIA; Wilson, Morris, Crain & Anderson, AIA; S.I. Morris Associates; Morris*Aubry Architects and Morris Architects – left a timeless imprint on Houston through their crucial roles in creating such treasured landmarks as the Astrodome (1965), Pennzoil Place (1976), Transco (now Williams) Tower (1983) and Gus S. Wortham Theater Center (1987), among many others. In Building A Houston Practice: The Career of S.I. Morris, Barry Moore notes that Morris insisted the only building he had ever personally designed was the house built at the corner of Waverly Court and Bissonnet in the 1950s. That house remains in the Morris family and is home to the architect’s widow, Mrs.
