Midtown Address and Upgrades Contribute to Tenant Appeal

The renovation of 5300 Memorial is slated for completion in the first quarter of 2017.

HOUSTON—5300 Memorial, an 11-story 153,000-square-foot office building, is undergoing a multimillion-dollar renovation. Built in 1983 and renovated in 1993, the building’s common areas including its entry, ground floor lobby, elevator lobbies and cabs, corridors and restrooms will be remodeled and modernized.

Specific improvements will include a new building monument sign, a contemporary lobby coffee bar, hotel-grade restroom finishes and LED lighting in common areas. Ziegler Cooper Architects and Basic Builders were retained as the design build team on the project, which is slated for completion in the first quarter of 2017.

“The importance of having modern, updated interiors cannot be overstated in today’s competitive leasing environment,” JLL’s Russell Hodges tells GlobeSt.com. “Renovations add value to an asset, improve the tenant experience and help to attract new tenants to a building. The capital improvements at 5300 Memorial will help the property further differentiate itself from other competing properties.”
