The Richland Cos. Buys West Loop Office

HOUSTON—The Richland Cos. has acquired 550 Post Oak from Japan-based Synerfac, an oil and gas company, and will move its corporate headquarters to the West Loop building, reps for the company have told GlobeSt.com.

“The new boutique office property is in a more central location than Richland’s previous headquarters, in the heart of Houston’s Galleria, Uptown and River Oaks area,” says Edna Meyer-Nelson, president and CEO of The Richland Cos. “As we continue to acquire properties throughout the Houston metropolitan area and the surrounding submarkets, it makes sense for us to move to a more central location which has easy access to 610, 59 and I-10, and close proximity to all of our properties throughout Houston.”
