TCC will develop the corporate campus at the intersection ofInterstate 10 and Grand Parkway near Katy. Construction is slatedto begin before year's end, with completion planned for 2010. TheKBR campus is expected to take up about half of TCC's land, withthe remainder earmarked for mixed-use purposes. The project costsis still being calculated.

KBR's offices are located at 601 Jefferson St. in the DowntownHouston. In a press release issued late Friday, KBR says it willcontinue to keep a CBD presence after the campus opens.

The campus plan speaks to the residential growth and jobcreation in the far west submarket. "This site is on the westernedge of the Energy Corridor, where a lot of activity is takingplace, both with energy contractors like KBR and other explorationand production companies," says Matt Khourie, president of TCC'ssoutheast operations.
