4411 San Felipe: 8-Story Office Building


Recommended Posts

The D in DC is Davis. It’s a collaboration with his business partner Robert Contranaous (sp?). On a related note, I know some people don’t like his designs but are there quality issues too? I’m shocked at how low some of his resale’s are like the Astoria which has high end finishes and units in the 450 per sq ft range which seems really low compared to other recent construction. His builder, GT Leech, is same one who built the ultra expensive The River Oaks.

4Q 2019 completion

Quote

Situated on San Felipe with easy access to I-610, minutes from the Galleria and Uptown Park and walking distance to River Oaks District, 4411 San Felipe offers the ideal  “park and stay” work environment. The property features three levels of Class A Office Space above high end retail.

The mixed-use mid-rise will be the future headquarters of DC Partners. Eight combined levels in the heart of Houston offers beautiful terrace space for office tenants and an easy commute from anywhere in Houston or the surrounding suburbs.

Isn't it surprising this isn't a highrise?

 

Not really. Only retail was proposed originally,  demand for office isn't great at the moment and Randy has always owned the site - he wouldn't want to upset his new condo buyers at Arabella. ;)

not even a little surprising... this isn't a very big site to begin with, the galleria market doesn't call for nor need any sort of high rise project (besides the fact that this is going to be owner occupied), and the last thing the developer  wants to do is a build a highrise that immediately blocks the best views of the condo tower they literally just built.

I didn't know Randall Davis owned this site. Makes perfect sense now.

So is this going to start now. Can they finish this in less than 12 months?

Didn't I see where they were quoting 4Q/2019 completion date.

 

Certainly looks like it. Didn’t think they were starting this soon but if that’s really what’s happening that’s awesome news.

Did SkyHouses do poorly in Houston? They did two in Downtown and this one and don't think they did any more, you don't hear much about who the losers were in the oil downturn, I can't think of any real estate or bank failures this time like First City and Texas Commerce for example

 

Putting three buildings in any city, and in a relatively short period of time is pretty successful. Thats hard for anyone to do, but if then compared to what others are doing in this town and it pales in comparison. Not to mention that the portfolio of development kinda sucks. Yeah, fantastic, you built 3 buildings, but they all look the same. Not exactly a great look honestly. They all look the same in every other city that has one. Hanover and Hines are just doing more and have a better wide ranging portfolio.

What's prompting the question on Skyhouse? The fact that there were 3 built here (whereas every other city they've built in only has one) would indicate they did well. 

 

Dallas has 2, Atlanta has at least 4 (not to mention plenty of other developments, but that's where they're based).

 

Novare has at least 4 residential high-rise developments in Nashville, 3 in Charlotte, and 2 in Austin (including a 44-story building).  They may not be called "Skyhouses" but I'm not sure what that has to do with anything.

There were some trucks on the site yesterday and now there are a few small posts/flags up so I'm hoping that means construction will actually begin soon. Certainly nothing substantial yet though.
