ABOUT DOWNTOWN HOUSTON

Downtown Houston is home to the city’s central business district and cultural center. This part of Houston remains the primary office node of the region and is home to a diverse mix of tenants. In addition to the large concentration of energy companies, several professional and business services firms, banks, Fortune 500 companies, and government entities call downtown Houston home. Thanks to billions of dollars in investment and the arrivals of Minute Maid Park, Toyota Center, and the Downtown Living Initiative, downtown Houston has also become a true live/work/play environment.

From a warehouse and distribution perspective, downtown has direct access to major highway arteries such as interstates 69 and 10, key arteries that cross the city and offer passage to other major markets in the Southern United States.

The industrial tenant base is diverse and includes retail, manufacturing, business services, and logistics tenants. Conversions are more popular than new construction in this area. For example, just a few years ago, the former home of Maxwell House Coffee was transformed by Kentucky-based Elemental Processing’s into a 1.2 million-square-foot hemp and CBD production facility. Other larger occupiers include Macy's (470,000 SF), Continental Coffee Products Co. (325,000 SF), Delta Steel (280,000 SF), and Texas Department of Agriculture (280,000 SF).

Downtown Houston presents an attractive value proposition to tenants in terms of rents, which consistently come at a discount compared to the rest of the metroplex.
