HOUSTON – A joint venture between Patrinely Group, USAA Real Estate and CDC Houston has begun construction on a two-building campus for Hewlett Packard Enterprise just north of Houston.

Planned for completion in spring 2022, the HPE development will comprise two five-story buildings at the southwest corner of East Mossy Oaks Road and Lake Plaza Drive, offering approximately 440,000 square feet of rentable space.

Located in Spring, the campus becomes the fourth major corporate presence at CityPlace at Springwoods Village, joining HP Inc., Southwestern Energy and the American Bureau of Shipping.

“Breaking ground on HPE’s campus is another major milestone reinforcing CityPlace as the most important and vibrant, 18‑hour mixed-use destination in north Houston,” said Robert Fields, president and CEO of Patrinely Group, the managing partner of the joint venture. “2019 was a significant year with the opening of the ABS headquarters, the HP Inc. campus, Star Cinema Grill, 24 Hour Fitness, and two Class A multi-tenant buildings, CityPlace 1 and 1401 Lake Plaza Drive.”

Pickard Chilton serves as design architect, Kirksey is the executive architect, REES is the interior architect, and D.E. Harvey Builders is the general contractor. Ronnie Deyo, John Roberts and Beau Bellow of JLL represented Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Dennis Tarro of Patrinely Group, together with Chrissy Wilson and Russell Hodges of JLL, represented the landlord.

The development will include a structured parking garage with 2,055 spaces.

CityPlace is a 60-acre mixed-use center serving the expanding area along the Grand Parkway corridor near the 3 million-square-foot ExxonMobil campus.

Once fully built out, the project will feature a full-service Houston CityPlace Marriott, up to 8 million square feet of Class A office space, approximately 500,000 square feet of retail and multiple multifamily residential buildings.

The development’s Class A office towers, ranging from five to ten stories, will provide structured parking at ratios up to 4.5 cars per 1,000 rentable square feet, with all spaces located in structured parking facilities.

CityPlace functions as the commercial hub of Springwoods Village, a 2,000-acre master-planned community about 20 miles north of downtown Houston.
