HOUSTON--Stream Realty Partners has announced that it has recently been awarded leasing responsibilities for Energy Center I, a 332,000-square-foot, class A property in the heart of Houston's energy corridor. The building is located at 585 N. Dairy Ashford Road and is currently fully leased to a single tenant.

“We are seeing interest from all sizes of companies,” Brad Fricks, vice president at Stream Realty Partners, told GlobeSt.com. “The energy corridor is attractive to companies as the area has the livable work/play environment including quality schools and housing they are looking for.”  

Built in 2008, Energy Center I received LEED Silver certification due in part to reduced consumption of non-renewable natural resources during its construction. This was achieved through the implementation of sustainable strategies that included a building-wide recycling program, high-efficiency glass and HVAC systems, and the use of low VOC-containing materials. The energy-efficient building also offers a water feature at its entrance and an eight-level attached garage with gated parking.

“This building represents a unique opportunity to be directly involved in the energy corridor, which is not just one of Houston's most dynamic office markets, but one of the nation's top markets,” says Fricks. “The energy corridor has a total of 16.8 million leasable square feet, with another 5.4 million square feet under construction. Once this new product delivers, the energy corridor will pass the Galleria as Houston's second-largest submarket.”

Fricks and Paul Coonrod will be handling the leasing of the project.
