H-Town Man Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Looks a little project-y. Just a little, though. This is becoming an interesting little area. Michael Hsu is design the redevelopment of the warehouse on Shepherd at the hike and bike trail. He also did Heights Revival to the east. It might make sense to connect 6th Street through the retention pond at some point. Then the last couple warehouses at 6th and Waverley could give way to something with a little height (considering the views), maybe a mixed residential and office development. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skooljunkie Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I didn't see a drawing--only a photo of an existing HHA project used as artwork on the Report Cover. Is there a rendering? I would assume this would be a dense mid-rise or something similar like the one planned in Uptown a few years back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buildings, first constructed in 1909, were formerly a meat packing and distribution facility for Swift & Company. The Swift site is immediately adjacent to Triten’s m-k-t Heights project and gives Triten 16.5 contiguous acres and over 2,000 linear feet of frontage along the Heights Hike and Bike Trail. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 By Olivia Pulsinelli – Senior web editor, Houston Business Journal May 21, 2019, 8:03am CDT Updated 5 hours ago A mixed-use project repurposing more than 200,000 square feet of industrial buildings in the Heights has secured its first tenants. Houston-based Radom Capital and Houston-based Triten Real Estate Partners are developing the 12-acre site at North Shepherd Street and 6th and 7th streets. Two restaurants have been confirmed for the development, dubbed M-K-T, while some other tenants are still being finalized, according to a press release. Shop Cos. is handling retail leasing for the project. Leases signed, expected to open in late summer or early fall 2020: Mendocino Farms Sandwich Market, which plans to open its first Houston locations in Rice Village this summer, in Uptown Park this fall and at 609 Main downtown this winter, according to its website. Honeychild's Sweet Creams, the first brick-and-mortar location of the Houston-based frozen custard company, which sells its products in various grocers, stores and farmers markets in the Houston area and Bellville, per its website. Per the release, "a national lifestyle-oriented concept featuring simple, seasonal healthy salad and grain bowls made from scratch using produce delivered that day" also signed a lease but has not been named. Leases still being finalized: A locally operated ice house to anchor the south side of the property along the White Oak Bayou Trail. It will include a large patio, hammock grove, movie screen and a large outdoor game area. Heights-based yoga studio, which also will operate a 70-foot yoga lawn along the trail. Other types of tenants M-K-T expects to add include a local clothing boutique, a coffee shop and several retail and beauty concepts. The Houston Business Journal has reached out to the developers for information about the brokers that represented Mendocino and Honeychild as well as the size of their leases. M-K-T will contain 100,000 square feet of creative office space and 100,000 square feet of chef-driven restaurants, first-to-market retailers and studio fitness concepts, HBJ previously reported. It also will feature an abundance of green space and a boardwalk-inspired gathering space around the Heights bike trails. Russell Hodges and Bubba Harkins with Chicago-based JLL's Houston office will handle the office leasing, HBJ reported in November. Boston-based Long Wharf Capital LLC is financing the project. Michael Hsu Office of Architecture designed the project, Houston-based Method Architecture is the architect of record, and SWA Group is the landscape architect. The project is about five times the size of Heights Mercantile, another mixed-use redevelopment from Radom Capital, Managing Principal Steve Radom told HBJ in November. The 40,000-square-foot Heights Mercantile delivered in 2017 and won a 2018 HBJ Landmark Award. It was sold in July 2018. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijonmang Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Personally I think it makes more sense to merge these topics into one consolidated thread since this whole thing is connected. Similar to the BLVD Place thread that aggregated a few different buildings into one place for easy to follow updates. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Urbannizer Posted May 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2019 It's a group of developers working together, similar to Studemont Junction (same with BLVD Place as well). Triten Real Estate, Radom Capital for the retail portion and Block Companies for the multifamily side. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Urbannizer Posted May 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2019 32 minutes ago, CrockpotandGravel said: Thanks. I see that as I read the documents that entities Lakeside Place and Standard in the Heights entered into a lease for the property as part of a partnership. And if you KNEW this was part of M-K-T , then why didn't you merge this sooner? No one in this thread brought that up at all and the thread about it was very visible. But when I bring it up, everyone wants to gang up on me by liking all the comments directed towards me as a way to flip me the bird when I have been actively adding to the M-K-T thread since last fall, posting info no one else bothered to post about M-K-T. The least you could do @Urbannizer is add the address back in the title which is 600 N Shepherd Dr . You ALWAYS leave that out when you merge or rename threads, mostly ones from me. Thanks. I didn’t know. The overview map you posted confirmed it as such. Seems to be the other way around Crockpot. You're the one who’s insolent towards others, specifically when someone posts something they didn’t know was already mention or when you tend to disagree how topics here are organized. We do appreciate your contributions, just please stop getting so riled up. 14 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intencity77 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Not to totally derail this topic but I really dislike the many “address only” titled topics. They are completely useless and rarely read on my part. Names of businesses and/or developments need to be included in the title if there is to also be an address. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmitch94 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) I wouldn't know what anything was if it was addresses only. Edited May 23, 2019 by jmitch94 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
