O'Quinn O'Quinn's trademark spires reach 477 feet above street level.

HOUSTON—Located at 6624 Fannin St., O'Quinn Medical Tower includes 445,725 square feet of doctor's offices above a 1,192-car parking garage. The 27-story building was designed by architect César Pelli and constructed in 1991. The property's trademark spires reach 477 feet above street level, making it one of the tallest medical buildings in the world.

The Baylor Clinic building, located at 6620 Main St., is connected to O'Quinn Medical Tower by a sky bridge. Built in 2003, the Baylor Clinic has 227,670 square feet of medical office space on five floors situated above 10 stories of parking.

Texas Children's Hospital has named JLL as exclusive property manager for O'Quinn Medical Tower and Baylor Clinic building, located in Houston's Texas Medical Center. The firm will provide a full range of property management services for the two medical office buildings, which total approximately 700,000 square feet.

The JLL team handling the property management assignment includes COO Mary Stanton, managing director Peyton Collins and senior general manager Roger Singleton. The addition of these properties has raised JLL's total property management portfolio in the Houston region to 8.4 million square feet.

“JLL assumed operation of O'Quinn Medical Tower and the Baylor Clinic building last month,” Collins tells GlobeSt.com. “As always, the primary focus upon moving on site, is to ensure all life safety systems are fully operational, including backup systems for critical environments, such as the three-floor surgical center. Our goal is to be sure tenants, their employees and guests experience no interruption of services during the transition of management.”

In addition to being selected to provide property management services, JLL provided brokerage services on behalf of Texas Children's Hospital for the acquisition. Dan Bellow, David Bale and Mindy Berman were the broker representatives for the hospital.

“Texas Children's Hospital continues to expand its reach in the Texas Medical Center and greater Houston area,” said Collins. “By leveraging the human capital and best practices of JLL, Texas Children's can continue to focus on superior patient care while ensuring these newly acquired assets are functioning at the highest level and supporting their mission as a leading healthcare provider.”
