Construction stalls on 33-story co-living skyscraper in Houston's Museum District

Construction of a 33-story co-living apartment project in the Museum District has stopped, leaving the project, called X Houston, partially complete and dormant with no clear indication of when work will continue.
X Houston was expected to be one of the city’s first co-living projects built from the ground up. Co-living is a form of roommate housing in which renters lease space by the bed, often with more affordable, flexible lease terms, while sharing common spaces.
X Co., its Chicago-based developer, did not respond to multiple requests for comment about why the 750,000-square-foot project between La Branch and Crawford north of Binz has paused. Neighbors say construction activity at the site stopped two to three weeks ago.
That timeline would align with when X Co. halted construction on a co-living project in Phoenix. Noah Gottlieb, the developer's CEO, told the Phoenix Business Journal that he expected work on X Phoenix would resume "very soon,” adding that company was still planning to break ground on a separate apartment tower in downtown Phoenix called X Roosevelt.
