Old rendering 1 Tower.


New Rendering 4 towers


From Houston Business Journal.

The 24-acre Regent Square project stands out from the mixed-use crowd because GID Urban Development Group says the company is now on track to break ground in the second quarter of 2009, following more than a year-long delay.

The project is slated for an area bounded by Allen Parkway, West Clay, Rosine and Tirrell. GID, a division of The General Investment & Development Cos. of Boston, has owned the site formerly occupied by the Allen House Apartments for 20 years.

Plans call for 225,000 square feet of retail space, 150,000 square feet of office space and 635 apartments on the site, with an opening date in late 2011.

The first building on the south side of W. Dallas as you come east on W. Dallas will be a 22 story condo tower (the tower in the lower right corner on the 2nd rendering). Second, the building on the SE corner of Allen Parkway and Tirrell will also be condos,however, they are planning on building the W. Dallas tower first and then the one on Tirrell when market conditions are right, so it (the Allen Pky & Tirrell tower) is not part of phase one.

The building at the SW corner of Dunlavy & Allen Pkwy will be an office building and have some sort of LEED certification (as will the condos, but not the apartment buildings). The whole complex has some sort of LEED rating for being mixed-use.

Not much info on the towers but, the tower in the lower left corner will be 11 stories, office use and part of phase one.
