Contractor Drafts Seven-Year Lease for Westchase

HOUSTON-JE Dunn of Texas Inc. has leased 12,952 sf at 3500 S. Gessner Rd. in Westchase submarket for seven years. The construction company, which is one of five regional companies under the JE Dunn Group umbrella, expects to move in Nov. 15.

“Dunn was looking to move west and to save some money,” says Mike Boehler with Dallas-based Staubach Co.’s Houston office. The firm will exit 12,000 sf at 3000 Richmond Ave. in Greenway Plaza.

Boehler tells GlobeSt.com that nearly all of Dunn’s employees live near the Sam Houston Tollway or farther west. Moving to Westchase will save 30 to 40 minutes of commute time each day. “Dunn could have found a less expensive building in Greenway Plaza, but [the thought] was if they’re going to move, go ahead and move closer to home,” he says.
