HOUSTON--The Port of Houston, the Grand Parkway and other industrial-related topics were the focus of the second panel at RealShare Houston on Tuesday at The Houstonian Hotel.
The oil-market situation casts a long shadow, but panelists agreed that the national media is portraying a misleading case about the current market.
“We've got a target on our back,” said David Boyd, co-managing director at Boyd Commercial/CORFAC International.
David Hudson, senior vice president, Houston at Duke Realty, related a similar story, recalling a recent visit of tentative investor groups.
“They thought Godzilla was roaming around Houston,” he said.
However, Curtis Spencer, president of IMS Worldwide Inc., observed the “real dichotomy” of the market.
“People like paying half-price for gas,” he said.
TGS Cedar Port Industrial Park, the massive enterprise in southeast Houston, was also discussed, with panelists agreeing that the outer boundaries of the city are widening with every development and transaction.
Other panelists included moderator Rhett Miller, regional director, southeast at VTS Inc.; Walker Barnett, principal, Houston, at Colliers International; and Jordan Frisby, economic analyst for the Port of Houston Authority.
