Rube88 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 So I started working in Kingwood In August so I pass by Generation Park daily and it seems like the FMC building with the two cranes has managed to be stuck at 2 1/2 floors since I started. Anyone know why there hasn't been any more vertical movement on the building? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Could be shortage of materials. Or labor. Or both. Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston19514 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Let's just say McCord is pretty new to this development thing... FMC bought the land from McCord. I doubt McCord is involved in the construction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortune Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Construction is still progressing, looks to be on the 3rd or 4th floor. Also the parking garage has started going up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rube88 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Here is the pic from Friday. Same as I have seen for last couple of months, at least on the main structure. I do know the cranes are moving as they are in different positions from morning time until I get off work. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxtethogrady Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 It won't be possible to tell without a close-up. Just the fact that the cranes are moving means something's going on. Either they've got a spot of bad concrete and have to redo some work, or some of their materials are late in arriving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are only building the two, but they're large floor plates. The additional buildings are going to be more warehouse/industrial, as far as I know. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) an update of the master plan. Apparently they just signed a lease with an office tenant for a building in the northeast corner of S.Pa North (the next phase). Edit: I wonder if the McCord rep was talking about the two buildings labeled Stolt-Neilsen Limited. Has the announcement for them signing on been made yet?

lockmat Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 I like the soccer and softball field. I hope it's at least semi-open to the public and not just for a single corporate company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I wonder if the McCord rep was talking about the two buildings labeled Stolt-Neilsen Limited. Has the announcement for them signing on been made yet? They are in the process of moving their Connecticut offices here. Their (our), current building is going under renovations to accommodate their operations department. I'm not sure about the rest of their departments.Edit: it would be bitter sweet to move there. It's a longer commute but a much more desirable area than Channelview. Plus the current building is dated and has irrigation issues. Edited May 15, 2015 by Montrose1100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 This entire area has so much potential. If all goes according to plan this area will be the next Galleria or Energy Corridor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mab Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 San Jacinto College said Wednesday that it will build a new campus on 57 acres in Generation Park, the 4,000-acre planned development in the far northeast Houston area.The new campus will be located across Lockwood Road from the 173-acre FMC Technologies corporate headquarters currently under construction at Generation Park. The developer McCord Development donated 3.8 acres at the intersection of West Lake Houston Parkway and Lockwood Road to the college.“We couldn’t be more excited to be part of what’s going on at Generation Park, San Jacinto College and even more broadly, in northeast Houston,” said Brenda Hellyer, the college system’s chancellor.Ryan McCord, president of McCord Development, said San Jacinto College “recognized the value” of the location and “the benefits of being part of a truly master-planned enterprise park.”“We can offer them something nobody else can: direct relationships with world-leading companies who want to work together to developer Houston’s next generation high-tech workforce — particularly subsea and downstream energy,” McCord said.The northeast Houston area accounts for 42 percent of the U.S. base of petrochemical manufacturing, with 400-plus chemical plants employing 33,000 workers. Billions of dollars in projects are on the books.FMC Technologies, which makes subsea equipment for the oil and gas industry, broke ground last year on its project at Generation Park, which will consolidate 10 Houston locations to the new business park. The first employees are to move there in early 2016.Hellyer said San Jacinto College is in the planning stages of the campus.http://blog.chron.com/primeproperty/2015/05/generation-parks-newest-tenant-is-san-jacinto-college/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortune Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 "Lots of firsts for Generation Park: its first anchor tenant is also its first Fortune 500 corporate campus: FMC Technologies acquired 173 acres, which is nearly the same size as the new ExxonMobil campus. McCord Development’s John Flournoy (nice catch, John!) tells us that the subsea technology giant for the oil and gas industry will be consolidating all of its Houston-based operations at Generation Park, including its global HQ, and is nearing completion of its first phase on 70 acres. Early next year, approximately 2,000 FMC employees will be moving to Generation Park in over 1M SF of office and workshop space as part of the first phase. Also new is the S.PA, Generation Park’s first corporate lifestyle center. The 52 acres is scheduled to break ground later this year and will be home to corporate office users and a mix of amenities like restaurants, hotels, conference centers, healthcare centers and child development centers. Stolt-Nielson, a leading European logistics company, recently acquired acreage in the S.PA and by winter, two hotels will be under construction. Yet another first: a 57-acre San Jacinto College campus will focus on serving the community and partnering with companies located in Generation Park to help train their current and future workforce."Read more at: https://www.bisnow.com/houston/news/commercial-real-estate/generation-park-hooks-big-fish-47939?utm_source=CopyShare&utm_medium=Browser 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The center will prepare students for technical careers in the energy industry at places like FMC Technologies, which is currently building its new campus in the park, said John Flournoy, director of sales and leasing at Generation Park. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
