Northwest Crossing is located at Hollister Drive and West Little York near Texas 290. Todd D. King, vice president of McShane's Houston office, tells GlobeSt.com that McShane elected to build office-flex in the Texas 290 area because it is noticeably absent in the submarket, which is known for its high sf of industrial product. King cites the 112,000-sf office building by Yancey-Hausman Development, which broke ground in February, as the only other new project offering office space in the submarket. The project building has been designed with aesthetics in mind, emphasizes King.

Phase two will total 53,000 sf. The entire project sits on eight acres that were bought in February. Cadence McShane Corp., a related company, has done the design-build construction along with Ambrose, McEnany and House Architects.

Stephen Schneidau of Cushman & Wakefield of Texas Inc. is the project's leasing agent. He says there has been tremendous interest thus far and talks are under way with two prospective tenants.

Floor plates range from 5,000 sf to 61,800 sf. The building features high exterior glass and office ratios, semi-dock truck access, multiple fiber provider options, high-demand electrical power sources and four to one parking ratios.

McShane's first Houston project was the 525,000-sf 3100 Main building. McShane bought the mid-town property in 1999 and later sold it to Houston Community College. McShane opened its doors in Houston in 1999. The company also has offices in Austin, Dallas and Phoenix.
