HOUSTON—The Kirby Collection is a 1.11 million-square-foot luxury mixed-use development located in the Upper Kirby District near Houston's iconic River Oaks neighborhood. The office tower part of the project recently topped off, according to Thor Equities, urban real estate developer, leasing and management company.

The project's 13-story 210,000-square-foot class-A office building is in close proximity to four of the city's largest employment hubs including the CBD, the Galleria/Uptown District, Greenway Plaza and the Texas Medical Center.

In addition, two levels of prime retail space totaling 65,000 square feet will be home to restaurants, nightlife and shopping. Thor recently leased 33,830 square feet at Kirby Collection to Pinstripes, a popular dining and entertainment venue featuring a variety of activities including bowling and bocce, as well as a bistro serving Italian and American cuisine.

Kirby Collection also features a 25-story 385,000-square-foot residential tower with 199 apartments including seven two-story townhomes, and seven two-story loft spaces with private yards. The residences will overlook a deck with more than an acre of landscaped amenities including a pool with cabanas, fire pits and a bar area. The penthouse level will feature a skyview suite available to all residents and office tenants, offering a chef's kitchen and panoramic views of the Houston skyline.

GlobeSt.com learns this upscale mixed-use project includes a 446,000-square-foot, six-level, 1,275-car parking garage.

E.E. Reed Construction is the general contractor for Kirby Collection. Richard Keating Architecture is the design architect, Dianna Wong Architecture + Design is the interior designer and Houston-based Kirksey is the architect of record. Walter P Moore is the structural engineer and Houston-based WYLIE is the MEP engineer.

“Thanks to the tireless work of our outstanding construction, engineering and design team, including over 250 building trades workers, we are excited to be on track for the completion and opening of Kirby Collection in the fourth quarter of 2017,” says Melissa Gliatta, COO of Thor Equities.

In addition to the Kirby Collection, Thor Equities is developing The Shoppes at Cinco Ranch anchored by a new 100,000-square-foot Lowe's store.
