HOUSTON-Bed, Bath & Beyond has picked a 32,000-sf retail site along Kirby Drive for its seventh Houston location. Rice Properties owns the spot that had been handpicked by a Weitzman team.

SEATTLE-Following its merger with a separate operating group of Georgia-Pacific, Plum Creek will be the second largest private timberland owner in the United States, with more than 7.8 million acres of timberlands located in 19 states.

ATLANTA-The new office space, preferably in a northern suburb such as Dunwoody, GA would house Cingular's workers at Northpark Town Center where the company and Bellsouth jointly occupy 300,000 sf on a lease that expires in 2002.

SAN JOSE-Several recent deals show that as long as rates stay reasonable, deals will continue to occur. For example, Capella Photonics just got into a triple net sublease of more than 9,000 sf of office/tech space here for little more than $3/sf.
