Here's Midway's press release about CityCentre 6. https://www.midway.team/blog-posts/midway-unveils-plans-for-citycentre-six Midway Unveils Plans for CITYCENTRE Six (HOUSTON, TX) – Houston-based Midway, the privately owned, fully integrated real estate investment and development firm, today announced plans for CITYCENTRE Six, a 19-story, 320,000 square-foot Class A office tower. Situated at the southern end of the CITYCENTRE north site, adjacent to Marathon Oil’s headquarters, the building is poised to be a landmark addition to Houston's premier mixed-use district and will include a new half-acre urban plaza. Midway has secured a confidential tenant for 65 percent of the building's office space, underscoring the strong leasing demand at CITYCENTRE, which is currently 100 percent leased. "Our plans for CITYCENTRE's north site have been in the works for almost a decade, and CITYCENTRE Six is a significant step towards realizing our long-term vision for the development," said Chris Seckinger, Vice President of Investment and Development at Midway. “CITYCENTRE’s thriving blend of office, retail, hotel, and residential offerings is a testament to the growing appeal of this area, and we look forward to introducing a new standard for Class A office space while also growing the pedestrian-focused master plan of the district.” CITYCENTRE Six will include 308,000 square feet of office space, with a large portion dedicated to the anchor tenant and up to 100,000 square feet available for lease. The tower will sit on a nine-level podium parking structure, providing ample and convenient parking for office workers. Approximately 12,000 square feet of retail and dining concepts on the building’s ground floor will support the surrounding office tenants, complementing CITYCENTRE’s existing mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment offerings. CITYCENTRE Six and the adjacent Marathon Oil building have been master-planned around a new half-acre urban plaza that will serve as a sophisticated new entrance to the original CITYCENTRE development. Designed by OJB Landscape Architecture and curated by Midway's Urban Park brand, the space will be hardscaped with materiality, with natural elements incorporated throughout and built-in assembly seating overlooking the area. CITYCENTRE Six’s retail fronts and patios will spill out onto the landscaped plaza, maintaining the view corridor and providing a natural pedestrian-focused connection back to CITYCENTRE. “As we continue to shape the modern workplace, we recognize the importance of creating an environment that transcends functionality and sparks inspiration,” said Brad Freels, Chairman and CEO, Midway. “This new urban plaza, in line with Midway's urban park brand, will offer a unique setting for professionals to connect, collaborate, and find moments of respite within the bustling CITYCENTRE environment. It's about creating a place where people want to be, and we believe this new addition will further enhance the appeal of CITYCENTRE Six as a premier destination for businesses and their employees.” Additional members of the project team for CITYCENTRE Six include Kirksey, Architect of Record; Munoz+ Albin Architecture and Planning, Design Architect; and OJB Landscape Architecture, Landscape Design. Construction is scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2024, with delivery expected in 2026.

"Gordy said the company’s next development project likely will be on a 6-acre parcel the family owns next to the office building at 100 Waugh Drive. “At the original site, we had plans to build three high-rise office buildings, a hotel and a green space,” Gordy said. “I think that will all happen one day. It’s just a matter of seeing what happens in the world of offices. We had plans to do something as recently as six months ago, so we have some ideas for what we want to do. But the costs are still out of sync with the return.”

With the address on Ayala Ave, according to the site plan Paco provided, Domain would be on Parcel O, north of the existing parking garage.

I believe this is no longer listed for lease by any 3rd party brokers, but Howard Hughes is keeping the dream alive. https://www.thewoodlands.com/wp-content/upload10Waterway-Brochure-2023.pdfs/2023/06/10Waterway-Brochure-2023.pdf

https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2023/12/09/levit-green-life-sciences-hines-phase-one-sino.html First tenant all moved in at Hines’ Levit Green life sciences campus Dec 9, 2023 The first building in Houston-based Hines’ 53-acre life sciences campus Levit Green, near the Texas Medical Center, is home to its first tenant. Chinese biotechnology company Sino Biological Inc. moved into the five-story, 296,000-square-foot Building 1, where it is leasing about 10,000 square feet of purpose-built lab and office space, in early October. The building, which received its certificate of occupancy last February, is the first of nine planned buildings on the campus, which will offer a mix of research and biomanufacturing facilities, office, retail, residential and outdoor amenities. When it’s complete, the complex at 3131 Holcombe Blvd. will have a total of 4 million square feet of leasable space. It broke ground in October 2021, with the first phase completed on schedule and under budget, Hines Senior Managing Director John Mooz said. He declined to disclose the development cost. While the majority of the 53-acre site is still undeveloped dirt, a new four-lane boulevard with a grassy median — Levit Green Boulevard — runs through it, connecting Dixie Drive to the north and Holcombe Boulevard to the south of the campus. Along it are a pair of recreational detention ponds and native plants throughout. The second building is currently in the schematic design phase with no groundbreaking date yet. While the first building was built specifically for biomanufacturing, Building 2 will be more focused on labs that meet cGMP, or Current Good Manufacturing Practice, standards. In addition to Sino’s space, Building 1 features 18,000 square feet of fully furnished turnkey lab space. It also includes 25,000 square feet of build-to-suit lab incubator space and features a 5,800-square-foot fitness center with locker rooms, a 7,000-square-foot conference center, balconies on each floor, an 18,000-square-foot standalone vivarium and an attached 700-vehicle parking garage with a bicycle parking area. Outside, terrace and green space along an artificial lake offers those working in the building a place to relax. A waterfront café and restaurant space is currently under construction. The campus is within walking distance from Hermann Park and connects to the 4-mile Columbia Tap Rail-Trail, which runs through the Third Ward and ends in East Downtown. In an emailed statement, Sino Chief Business Officer Rob Burgess said his company could not be happier with its decision to locate its Sino Biological Center for Bioprocessing at Levit Green. “Levit Green represents the ideal ecosystem for all of Sino Biological’s research, development and contract research service needs,” he said. “Its location adjacent to Houston’s Texas Medical Center allows for close in-person interaction with leading researchers and clients. Its state-of-the-art design provides the necessary laboratory- and business-focused essentials and amenities for success in the life sciences bioreagents and related services sector.” Sino Biological is headquartered in Beijing but has subsidiaries in Suzhou, China; Taizhou, China; Frankfurt, Germany; and Wayne, Pennsylvania. The company provides mammalian cell-based recombinant proteins, antibodies and related contract research services. Its space at Levit Green is the company’s first manufacturing facility in the United States. Meanwhile, Hines is in talks with several national and international life sciences companies and is confident to be able fill to most of the building by the end of next year, Mooz said. The quoted annual rent is $60 per square foot for the build-to-suit space and $70 for the fully furnished turnkey space. The structure of the building was built using additional steel and concrete reinforcements, as well as spring-based anchoring, to provide the maximum amount of vibration attenuation. Because many fields of life sciences research involve highly sensitive experiments, vibration attenuation is critical for a dedicated laboratory space, Mooz said. The building also has a 100% redundant backup power system to ensure electrical disruptions do not affect any of the experiments being conducted in the building. With flooding a major concern in Houston, Hines raised the site, which has never flooded, 2 feet above the 500-year floodplain, Mooz said. Anyone is welcome to stroll through the campus and use it as recreational space. The development of the campus is part of an increased effort to build a life sciences ecosystem in Houston. Less than 2 miles from Levit Green, the Texas Medical Center’s 37-acre Helix Park recently opened its first buildings. Farther north, The Woodlands is trying to establish itself as a commercial life science hub. In October, Pasadena, California-based Alexandria Real Estate Equities Inc. (NYSE: ARE) opened the 12-acre, $200 million Alexandria Center for Advanced Technologies there, along with its first tenant, San Francisco-based Nurix Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: NRIX). Mooz said he sees no competition between Levit Green and other life sciences campuses in Greater Houston. “The more current, best-in-class life science development to come to Houston, we are all better off,” he said.

Is Gilbane still the CM for this? Also, I know Arquitectonica did the conceptual design, but I doubt they are the AOR. Here's that Biz Journal article. Not much detail. TMC hotel serving MD Anderson Cancer Center patients to receive additional funds for expansion Nov 22, 2023 Rotary House International Hotel, which provides a place for cancer patients to stay while receiving treatment at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, will soon undergo a major expansion to increase its capacity by 55%. The University of Texas System Board of Regents unanimously approved a measure to increase the expansion's budget to $112.3 million, citing rising construction costs and the addition of an elevated pedestrian walkway. Rotary House International Hotel, which is located at 1600 Holcombe Blvd. in the Texas Medical Center, is owned by the UT System but is operated by Maryland-based Marriott International Inc. (Nasdaq: MAR). Dr. Peter Pisters, president of MD Anderson Cancer Center, told the board of regents during a Nov. 15 meeting in Austin that the hotel has the highest occupancy rate of any hotel in Marriott’s global portfolio. By adding rooms, Pisters said Rotary House will be better able to serve the additional patients and families receiving treatment following MD Anderson’s own $668 million expansion in the TMC. “We’re seeking to expand this to enable us to accommodate the increased number of patients and the families that will be coming as we expand our Texas Medical Center campus over the years ahead,” Pisters said. The hotel expansion project was originally approved in 2020 and was added to the UT System’s capital improvement program last year with an estimated cost of $83.5 million. The expansion of Rotary House International Hotel will include the addition of a new 12-story wing attached to the existing building. In all, 180 additional guest rooms and suites will be added, according to a board of regents agenda for the meeting. The project will also involve renovating the existing hotel to improve its amenities, including upgrades to the kitchen and dining services areas to serve the additional guests staying at the hotel following the expansion. The renovations will require the hotel to lose seven existing guest rooms. However, the hotel will gain 7,300 square feet of shell space that will be used for future amenity areas. Upon completion of the project, the hotel is expected to have a total of 495 guest rooms and suites. The new pedestrian walkway will be adjacent to, but not directly attached to, the hotel and will provide greater access to an MD Anderson parking garage. The walkway is being constructed as an extension of the existing elevated pedestrian walkway system to allow faculty and staff to access the parking garage without having to cross six lanes of traffic, Pisters said. The board of regents did not say when the project is expected to break ground or who will be overseeing its construction. The Houston Business Journal has reached out for additional information. Rotary House International Hotel was built in 1992 and was last renovated in 2007. As part of the 2007 renovation, a 10-floor wing was added, providing 155 additional guest rooms.

Mods, we prob need to change the title on this. Adding the Biz Journal article from yesterday: https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2023/11/21/garden-oaks-sears-store-mixed-use-development.html The longtime Sears store in Garden Oaks, which has been closed since 2020, will soon be demolished to make way for a new mixed-use development. Sugar Land-based Lamasar Capital acquired the property at 4000 N. Shepherd Drive, with financial support from Houston-based Summit Capital and Delta LP, paying an undisclosed price for the parcel, according to a news release. While the terms of the transaction were not disclosed, the 11.7-acre property near the intersection of North Shepherd Drive and Garden Oaks Boulevard had an assessed value of $15.6 million as of Jan. 1, according to Harris Central Appraisal District records. The property includes the primary Sears store as well as an auto repair center. Specific details about what the mixed-use development will include were not provided. However, Ashiq Ali, co-founder of Lamasar Capital, said it will include both retail and residential components. “Our vision for a vibrant mixed-use development in this thriving neighborhood aims to create not just residences but also a spectrum of destinations and services,” Ali said. “Our goal is to establish a legacy that integrates innovation, serves the community, and becomes a focal point for the neighborhood's growth and prosperity for years to come.” Lamasar Capital has tapped Bellaire-based Fidelis to oversee construction of the new development, which is scheduled to wrap up in the next three to four years. “Our overriding goal in our developments and redevelopments is always to align the interests of all stakeholders — residents, merchants and landlord — to provide the best redevelopment possible to maximize the shopping, service and living experiences for our community and tenants. Everyone wins when this is achieved,” Fidelis CEO Alan Hassenflu said. “This site represents a perfect opportunity to redevelop commercial uses to meet the retail and residential demand growth in the area.” The Sears store at 4000 N. Shepherd opened in 1949 and had been in operation for more than 70 years before shuttering three years ago as part of a wave of Sears closures. In October 2018, CBRE Senior Vice President Mark Witcher said the Sears locations at Memorial City Mall and 4000 N. Shepherd Drive presented the best redevelopment opportunities. The Sears at Memorial City Mall closed in November 2018, one of the chain's most noteworthy closures in Houston. The mall's owner, Houston-based MetroNational, announced in May 2019 that plans were underway to transform the mall, driven by the Sears closure. The Memorial City Sears store was demolished in 2020, and MetroNational plans to replace it with a 27-acre urban infill development, dubbed Memorial Town Square. The development eventually will feature a mix of retail, coworking, traditional office and multifamily spaces. Also in 2020, the Sears stores at Willowbrook Mall in northwest Houston and Deerbrook Mall in Humble shut down. Prior to that, the Mall of the Mainland Sears in Texas City, southeast of Houston, was among the closures announced in August 2019. Another noteworthy local Sears closure was in Midtown, where the company had a storefront at 4201 Main St. for 73 years before it closed in January 2018. That property has since been transformed into the Ion, the centerpiece for Houston's growing innovation district.

https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2023/10/26/new-hope-housing-third-ward-nhh-gray-community.html New Hope Housing breaks ground on new community inHouston’s Third Ward Houston’s historic Third Ward neighborhood will soon be home to Houston-based New Hope Housing's latest affordable housing complex. The project, called NHH Gray, broke ground on Oct. 25. Located at 2675 Gray St., the property will offer 135 apartment units and services for seniors who are 55 and older. The units will come in one- and two-bedroom floor plans and will be equipped with in-unit washer and dryers, energy-efficient kitchen appliances, granite countertops and individually controlled central air. Services will include weekly senior-oriented events and on-site wrap-around services, among other things. Houston-based GSMA is the architect for the building, and Houston-based Camden Builders will serve as the general contractor. This is one of two New Hope Housing projects financed by Houston-based Amegy Bank — the other is NHH Berry, which will be located at 706 Berry St. NHH Gray also received financial support from the National Equity Fund and the Midtown Redevelopment Authority, which donated $5 million in land. The Center for Civic and Public Policy Improvement worked closely with the Midtown Redevelopment Authority to bringing NHH to Third Ward. Additionally, the Houston Housing Authority, a vital partner in helping NHH expand its reach, is also is providing 67 project-based vouchers for NHH Gray residents. NHH Gray is set to open in 2025 and will serve residents who earn 60% and below of the area median income. New Hope Housing said the new community supports the nonprofit's commitment to helping Houstonians have access to safe, affordable housing as well as services to meet the needs of families, individuals and seniors at risk of or experiencing housing instability. In a recent equity study for Houston, the city received an overall score of 41.3 for housing. A score of 100 indicates no disparity among racial and ethnic groups in Houston, while a score of 0 indicates the largest disparity possible among such groups. Thus, the housing score illustrates gaps in homeownership between people of color and white residents in Houston, Daniel Potter, senior director of research from Rice's Kinder Institute, explained in July. More specifically, the city scored a 46 for home ownership and affordability, 24.7 for housing quality and 53.3 for housing risks. Within this, Houston's low-value housing stock was scored a 1. For instance, but many homes there are priced at less than $100,000, and the quality is lost, Potter said at the time. In its "2023 State of Housing in Harris County and Houston" report released in July, the Kinder Institute for Urban Research found that 58% of homes within Houston’s city limits were rented in 2021. Meanwhile, the Kinder Institute’s Houston Area Survey earlier this year found that one in five adults said the cost of housing is the biggest problem facing the region. In Houston, the median household income for a renter was just above $43,000 in 2021, up 24.7% from $34,462 in 2015. But during that same period, monthly rent in Houston increased 30.1% — from $873 to $1,136 — according to estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey cited in the State of Housing report. Thus, Kinder researchers found that about 51% of renters in Harris County and the city of Houston in 2021 qualified as cost-burdened under federal standards, meaning these individuals spent more than 30% of their income on housing. This number is up from 48% in 2019. “As rent prices have soared post-pandemic, closing the affordability gap for low- and moderate-income Houstonians has never been more important,” Joy Horak-Brown, New Hope Housing’s president and CEO, said in an Oct. 25 statement. “NHH Gray alleviates the burden for seniors in search of comfortable and high-quality living spaces, and for their families, ensuring necessary housing and services without financial strain.” Affordable housing is also a “boon to development,” Garnet Coleman, former Texas State Representative for House District 147, said during the Oct. 25 groundbreaking event for NHH Gray. “People are going to take advantage — in the right way — of [NHH Gray],” Coleman said. “I know that this project is going to create a lot of development around it and positive development for the area.” Horak-Brown said having affordable apartment homes in Third Ward has been a goal of hers for nearly 20 years, so the groundbreaking for NHH Gray has been a long time coming. New Hope now operates 11 properties throughout Houston and has more in development, including NHH Berry, which also broke ground this month.

https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2023/10/20/mill-creek-residential-beckett-apartments-conroe.html Mill Creek Residential starts construction on new apartment complex in Conroe A Florida-based multifamily investment company has started construction on a 408-unit apartment complex near Lake Conroe. Beckett West Fork will be located at 10485 League Line Road in Conroe, between Interstate 45 and the southern part of Lake Conroe. It is being developed by Boca Raton, Florida-based Mill Creek Residential Trust LLC, which acquired the 26-acre property from a local investor in August, according to Jeb Cox, senior managing director of development at the company. The one- and two-bedroom units will range from 850 to 1,250 square feet and rent from about $1,500 to $1,800, Cox said. They will feature 9-foot ceilings, wood plank-style flooring, stainless steel appliances, electric ranges, granite countertops, kitchen islands, custom cabinetry, walk-in closets and full-sized washers and dryers. Community amenities include a 5,000-square-foot clubhouse, swimming pool, grilling area, outdoor kitchen, fitness center, landscaped courtyards, pet park and rentable private garages. “Beckett West Fork will offer the best of both worlds in that residents will experience a small-town vibe while remaining within commuting distance of the area's key employment and entertainment centers," Lucas Sandidge, vice president of development at Mill Creek, said in a statement. “The community will provide a nature-centric living experience at a much more reasonable price point than many of the surrounding suburban locales.” The Conroe area has been one of Greater Houston’s fastest-growing apartment markets in recent years. As of last February, there were 70 properties totaling more than 15,000 apartment units in the Conroe-Montgomery-Willis area, according to MRI ApartmentData. “Montgomery County is a fast-growing county, (and) Conroe has seen a lot of population growth,” Cox said. “There's a need for housing in the area.” About a mile east on League Line Road, Scottsdale, Arizona-based Alliance Residential Co. is developing Prose in the Pines, a 264-unit apartment complex. Next to it, Pennsylvania-based luxury homebuilder Toll Brothers Inc. (NYSE: TOL) has developed Teaswood Avenue, a gated community of 55 single-family homes. Beckett West Fork will be Mill Creek’s seventh apartment complex in Greater Houston, though the company has developed and sold others over the years. It opened the 360-unit Beckett Cottingham at 13958 Cottingham St. in southeast Houston this past summer. Two other communities are under construction: the 327-unit Modera Garden Oaks at 641 W. Crosstimbers Road in Independence Heights and the 392-unit Modera Waugh tower at 716 Waugh Drive south of Buffalo Bayou Park. Both are slated to open for leasing by the end of this year or early next, Cox said. Mill Creek, founded in 2011, develops, acquires and operates apartment communities and as of June has 128 complexes totaling more than 35,000 units across the United States. Mill Creek broke ground on the three-story, 14-building complex the same month and expects to deliver the first apartments for lease by the end of next year. The community is part of the company's new attainable housing brand, Beckett by Mill Creek, and was designed by Houston-based EDI International.
