IntheKnowHouston Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) 1201 W 43rd St and 1205 W 43rd St were listed for sale and for lease until recently. Tex-Mex restaurant Berryhill is located 1201 W 43rd St. The Blue Ox Group listed the properties on behalf of the owner. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1201-W-43rd-St-Houston-TX/25751415 https://images1.loopnet.com/d2/2qp98-Mn_lbcEXSx5GigosTJmwXS9dFkXz09IrBitz4/Ella W 43rd Flier.pdf Despite its proximity to Oak Forest Shopping Center, 1201 W 43rd St and 1205 W 43rd St are not part of the retail development.

IntheKnowHouston Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) 1201 W 43rd St and 1205 W 43rd St recently changed hands, according to county records registered last week. An entity named Corner Forty Three, LLC acquired both parcels. I think the entity is tied to local real estate firm Orr Commercial. https://www.orrinc.com Edited January 30, 2023 by IntheKnowHouston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
