Former ExxonMobil Site Finds New Life as Republic Square

The rollout of the new buildings will be adjusted to meet demand.

HOUSTON—A year after first announcing long-term plans for the redevelopment of the former ExxonMobil Chemical headquarters campus and renaming the future mixed-use district at 13501 Katy Freeway as Republic Square, good progress continues to be made on the project. The project’s sole owner and developer, Third Palm Capital, is in the process of repurposing the existing buildings on this approximately 35-acre Energy Corridor site.

“Our vision for Republic Square remains intact, but given [the] changes in the market, the rollout of new buildings will be adjusted to meet demand,” according to Randall Tuller, executive manager for Third Palm Capital. “Boxer Property has helped us to realize the immediate value of this one-of-a-kind holding, and at this time, we’re looking forward to bringing new life to a dynamic pair of thoughtfully designed buildings, while beginning to create a sense of community and place with amenities and programming that take advantage of an irreplaceable setting.”
