Studio Movie Grill, which is taking 37,940 sf, is pushing to open by year end on a second floor of the 1.1-million-sf project at 800 W. Sam Houston Pkwy. Tuscan Grille and Yard House, both planning to open between spring and summer, have taken 9,000 sf and 8,531 sf, respectively. The leases average 10 years.
Retail asks are in the low $40 per sf, net, with tenant-improvement allowances averaging $50 per sf for the 539,319-sf retail component. "Many of the retailers are spending $175 to $200 per sf and some of the restaurants are spending as much as $300 per sf," says Jonathan Brinsden, executive vice president and COO for the Houston-based developer, Midway Cos.
Brinsden tells GlobeSt.com that CityCentre is more than 50% committed on the retail side, with most of the big users and restaurants in place. "Beyond the office, there were three critical components to this: Lifetime Fitness, the hotel and movie theater," he says. "Those three components really shaped the project."
