Transwestern to Lease Central Square Plaza

HOUSTON—Claremont Property Co. has selected Transwestern to lease 2100 Travis St., known as Central Square Plaza. 

The property occupies the entire city block bordered by Travis, Milam, Gray and Webster streets in the booming Midtown submarket. The new construction-quality redevelopment the class A, 280,000-square-foot office building, with more than 20,000 square feet of first-floor retail, is nearly complete. Central Square Plaza will be ready for occupancy by January 1, 2016. Transwestern executive vice president David Baker and associate vice president Evelyn Ward are providing leasing services for the office space.

“Central Square's unique Midtown location appeals to companies that want to attract the millennial work force, as well as tech start-ups,” Baker told GlobeSt.com. “Central Square has the largest block of class A space available, and can uniquely fill this market niche.”

Upgrades to the property include a floor-to-ceiling, high-performance curtain wall exterior and five high-speed elevators and mechanical systems. The building will feature on-site management, a tenant conference center holding up to 40 people, structured parking and 24-hour security.

“When we purchased the building, we believed that it is a perfect space for medium-sized owner-operated businesses as well as possibly back office space for a large medical or engineering user,” says Keeley Megarity, owner of Claremont. 

The building features modern finishes for both common areas and tenant spaces and is conveniently accessible from all mass transit options, including METRORail, METRO Park & Ride and local city bus stops, with the building itself featuring on-site bicycle racks and shower facilities.
