McCord Development plans to build a new hotel, apartment complex and an office/retail building in Generation Park, a massive business park northeast of Houston.

 

The Houston developer is planning the first phase of Redemption Square, an urban mixed-use district within the 4,000-acre Generation Park, located off Beltway 8 in the West Lake Houston region.

 

McCord Development is under contract for a Courtyard Marriott hotel with 147 rooms and an urban apartment project with 243 units, the developer of which is yet to be announced.

 

In addition, the developer has begun preleasing for a five-story spec building with 85,000 square feet of Class A office space and 15,000 square feet of ground-level retail space. A 1,000-space parking garage is also planned.

 

Eventually, Redemption Square — formerly called S.PA — will feature 1.5 million square feet of Class A office space, 800 residential units, 650 hotel rooms, 275,000 square feet of retail space and 21 acres of parks.

 

Future phases of Redemption Square will also include an extended-stay hotel, fitness centers and a 4,000-seat auditorium.

 

The 52-acre urban district will be located just west of Houston-based FMC Technologies’ new 173-acre corporate campus, where 2,000 new employees are expected to start relocating around March. San Jacinto College also is expected to open a new campus on 57 acres in Generation Park.

MDI is currently in the process of selling land and partnering with other parties for the development of the initial phase of the 52‐acre mixed use urban center which has been renamed “Redemption Square” within the District. Redemption Square is a planned urban center to be developed specifically for corporate users, hotels, multifamily apartments and a mix of restaurants and lifestyle amenities. Stolt’s (hereinafter defined under “THE OTHER DEVELOPERS”) 6‐acre land purchase represents the first land sale in Redemption Square. MDI has announced an initial phase of Redemption Square which includes:

 

Courtyard by Marriott Hotel

 

Schematic design has been completed for an urban‐style 144‐key Marriott Courtyard that will serve FMC and area’s lodging needs. The hotel is scheduled to break‐ground in mid‐2016 with completion expected in mid‐2017. The developer is a privately held national real estate development, construction and management company with experience developing more than 20 hotel assets with leading brands including InterContinental Hotels Group, Hilton and Marriott.

 

Urban Adaptive Mixed‐Use Office Building

 

Adjacent to the Courtyard by Marriott hotel, MDI is planning to start construction on a 5‐story, 85,000 square‐foot class‐A multi‐tenant office building in mid‐2016. MDI’s corporate headquarters will locate there upon completion. Five different companies have expressed interest with space requirements totaling over 100,000 square feet. On the ground floor, up to four restaurant spaces are planned to be leased by Transwestern. The general contractor, architect and engineers have been selected and the target completion date is March 2017. Concurrently, construction documents are also underway for an approximate 711‐car parking garage that will serve the office building, the Courtyard by Marriott hotel and the media company building. The parking garage is expected to break ground in mid‐2016 with an early 2017 completion.

 

240 Unit Luxury Rental Apartments

 

Together with a national owner and developer of residential apartments, MDI is under design on an approximately 240‐unit multifamily property in Redemption Square, located near the mixed‐use office building and Courtyard by Marriott hotel. The 4‐story and garage‐parked project is being designed by Humphrey’s & Partners Architects and construction is expected to commence mid‐2016 with a completion in 2017.

 

Transwestern High‐Rise Class A Office Building

 

Together with Transwestern, MDI has designed and is offering for lease a 300,100 square foot, 14‐ story class A office building located at one of the corners of Redemption Square. Conceptual Design has been completed by architectural firm HOK, and a marketing package has been finalized. MDI & Transwestern are actively seeking an anchor tenant and have submitted proposals on a number of opportunities.

 

Redemption Square Linear Park

 

Architectural firm TBG has been contracted to complete schematic design and produce construction documents for Redemption Square’s Linear Park and plaza, which will be designed to include a signature water feature, an array of amenities and multiple event spaces. The park will be the central gathering place for Redemption Square and is scheduled break ground in 2016 for a 2017 completion.

 

Local Media Company Headquarters

 

In November 2015, a local media company’s executive board unanimously approved a $150,000 budget for the funding of the implementation of their pre‐development package for its new headquarters at Redemption Square. The pre‐development scope includes schematic design package and selection of a fee developer, general contractor, architect and civil engineer. Their Redemption Square building program is for 5 stories and approximately 120,000 square feet

Every time I see a rendering like this for an area like that I think "I'll take the office building and the residential building for midtown please." 

Yeah but imagine the guilt that comes with trying to walk into a meeting at an office at Redemption Square!

"Hello sir I'm looking for company that provides a service I need"

"WELL HAVE YOU REDEEMED YOUR SOUL TO OUR LORD AND SAVIOR YET"

 

Honestly though, McCord is 0/2 on naming schemes.

Every time I pass this area I can't help but think about the original statement about all the trees and how they will play a vital role in the development but so far it's flat grass like every other suburban office complex.

 

Where the construction is taking place now the trees where cleared long before McCord purchased the land. So basically they started with a empty field.

 

I have lived in the area about 17 years. When I moved to the area the previous owner was going to build a neighborhood on the land called Summer Creek. 

 

McCord has has planted hundreds of live oaks and other plants along the newly constructed portions of WestLake Houston Parkway and Lockwood Rd. as well as around the man made lake they created. 

 

The thousands of pine trees they planted on their property on the other side of the beltway are still standing.

 

I'm sure once they complete construction on the buildings they are working on now, they will plant trees around them.

The 4000-acre master-planned development near Summerwood partnered with the Lake Houston Area Chamber of Commerce to release a survey asking what residents would like to see in the development. The survey requests feedback on dining options, shopping and fitness facility preferences as well as health and beauty options. The survey launched Thursday, April 20 and runs through Thursday, May 11.

I'll take a mattress firm, a nail salon, a cheap donut and kolache place, a second mattress firm, and a starbucks, adjacent to a public storage and a poorly maintained convenience store with taco trucks out front. Home sweet home.

New industrial park underway at Generation Park

 

Houston-based McCord Development Inc., the entity behind Generation Park, is underway on a new industrial park in the massive mixed-use community in northeast Houston.



 

McCord Development is underway on Lockwood Business Park, a speculative project that's already secured an anchor tenant, Ryan McCord told the Houston Business Journal.

 

McCord is developing three speculative facilities at the 25-acre park; two buildings will house roughly 57,600 square feet of flex office or industrial space, and the third building will contain 44,800 square feet of space, per the park's marketing materials.

 

The anchor tenant, which will relocate its corporate headquarters to the park, wasn't disclosed. Two of the industrial park's five proposed buildings have been leased, according to marketing materials. Lockwood Business Park's first speculative building should deliver in the first or second quarter of 2018.

 

The park is located at 13300 Lockwood Rd., across the street from Houston-based TechnipFMC Plc's headquarters campus that opened last summer. Generation Park is a 4,000-acre commercial development located off Beltway 8 in the West Lake Houston region.
