The amenity center at Chasewood Technology Park was designed by architect Ziegler Cooper Architects.
HOUSTON—GenCap Partners Inc. has integrated a newly designed amenity center at Chasewood Technology Park, a 463,969-square-foot campus located in the Houston Technology Corridor on State Highway 249. The campus currently consists of four office buildings: One Chasewood, a six-story 107,968-square-foot building; Two Chasewood, an eight-story 153,226-square-foot building; Three Chasewood, a four-story 97,552-square-foot building and Four Chasewood, a five-story 105,223-square-foot building that received a LEED EB O&M Silver certification as well as a BOMA 360 Performance Building certification.
David Lee, Transwestern senior vice president, represents the owner, GenCap Partners, and provides office leasing services for Chasewood Technology Park. Transwestern also currently manages the campus.
"With the new trail system soon coming through our property, it will be easy to hop on a bike and ride to the Kickerillo-Mischer Preserve just on the other side of 249," said Lee. "Ultimately the plan is to have an uninterrupted system of trails and parks from north of IAH to the Waller/Harris county line in west Houston. GenCap is committed to providing state-of-the art facilities to their tenant base, and there is absolutely nothing else like it in this area."
The 7,076-square-foot amenity center designed by architect Ziegler Cooper Architects will provide tenants a lounge with three huddle rooms available on demand, a conferencing center with up to 54 seats that partitions into two rooms, and a gym with equipment, showers, lockers and a bike rack.
"Ownership is committed to providing a tenant-centric amenity base that compliments the goal of recruiting and retaining talent within the complex," Lee tells GlobeSt.com. "With this addition to Chasewood, we believe we have accomplished exactly that. Today's office user is much more discerning than in the past. Ownership recognizes this and wants to stay in touch with a new range of expectations from a facility."
Overall, Houston job growth remains healthy, office net occupancy is showing gains with 58,000 square feet of positive absorption and construction is close to 2.5 million square feet across 16 buildings, according to a report by NAI Partners.
