HOUSTON—Brookfield Properties recently unveiled its vision and plans for the redevelopment of Houston Center, a four-building mixed-use downtown complex. The renovation focuses on creating a more connected experience at Houston Center by engaging users at street level.
“The fact that Brookfield owns the properties on both sides of McKinney has given our design team the unique opportunity to incorporate the street into an expansive and seamless plaza,” says Gensler principal Dean Strombom. “Building on the pedestrian-friendly and program-rich environment of nearby Discovery Green, this new district will be an energized place for Houston Center office users during the day, and for the public on nights and weekends.”
