Transwestern breaks ground on The RO mixed-use project in Upper Kirby

Construction work is officially underway on a long-awaited mixed-use development in the Greenway-Upper Kirby area.

Transwestern Development Co. announced June 24 that it has broken ground on The RO, a 17-acre development at 3120 Buffalo Speedway, near the corner of West Alabama Street and Buffalo Speedway.

When it is completed in 2027, The RO, pronounced “row,” will include Houston’s first luxury Auberge Resorts Collection hotel with attached condo units, a sprawling retail village with up to eight restaurants, more than 700 apartment units and creative office space.

In all, the project will encompass about 740,000 square feet.

Connecticut-based Pickard Chilton is overseeing the master plan. Transwestern tapped New York-based Kohn Pederson Fox to design the hotel and condo building, with Houston-based Dillon Kyle Architects overseeing the condo interiors and New York-based Roman & Williams designing the hotel’s interiors. San Francisco-based House & Robertson Architects was tapped to serve as architect of record for the hotel and condos.

House & Robertson Architects is also serving as architect of record for the retail portion of the project, while the Austin-based Michael Hsu Office of Architecture is the retail design architect.

For the multifamily and office component, Transwestern again hired Pickard Chilton as design architect.

Houston-based MaRS Culture is overseeing the multifamily interiors. Atlanta-based Preston Partnership is the architect of record for the multifamily component, and Houston-based Kendall Heaton Associates is the architect of record for the office component.

OJB Landscape Architecture, based in Houston, is the landscape architect, while Houston-based Tellepsen and Alabama-based Hoar Construction are serving as general contractors.
