HOUSTON--StreetLights Residential (SLR) has broken ground on a 20-story luxury high-rise residential development in the city's Museum District.
Sitting on nearly two acres, The Carter will be located between Montrose and Travis streets, near downtown, the Medical Center and Rice University.
“The Carter high-rise is a wonderful addition to the Montrose area's rapidly growing population with its close proximity to several of Houston's main attractions,” says SLR CEO Doug Chesnut. “We pride ourselves on creating a luxury, hotel-like environment with each of our projects, and we believe the high-end amenities and multiple living options in this development achieve that vision. The Museum District is rich in culture and the arts, and we are certain the future residents are going to enjoy the neighborhood.”
Designed by Gromatzky Dupree & Associates (GDA), the building will be comprised of 305 units with one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans in addition to townhouse and penthouse options. Units will feature 10-foot-tall ceilings, keyless entry systems, “sound system-ready capabilities, stone countertops, stainless-steel appliances and gourmet prep islands. Additional amenities will include a resort-style pool with multiple lounge areas and fire pits, a 19th floor lounge with kitchen, dining and entertainment areas, a private game room, fitness center, resident lobby bar and lounge, outdoor covered dog park, Wi-Fi throughout common areas, private garages and garage parking with electric car-charging stations.
Lynda Tycher & Associates will design the landscape; SLR Texas Construction is serving as the general contractor. The Carter is expected to deliver its first units in early 2016, with project completion slated for 2017.
A rep with StreetLights was unable to return a request for additional comments by press time.
