KBR Says It's Moving To Energy Corridor

[musicman]

Houston-based KBR plans to develop a west Houston office campus in order to be closer to its growing employee and customer base, the company said Friday.

The move will put the engineering and construction giant near the Energy Corridor, an area along Interstate 10 known for its concentration of oil and gas companies and the firms that service them. The development will include more than 910,000 square feet of space in low-rise buildings at the southwest corner of Grand Parkway and Interstate 10 near Katy.

KBR, which was spun off from Halliburton last year, will join the likes of ConocoPhillips, Shell and BP with big complexes in this region.

The new location also will give the company better access to a skilled labor pool.

I'm glad we bought out here in last year. Housing prices have been rising steadily. Lot's of remodeling and massive gutting going on as well.
