Site to Multifamily Developer: Wolff Sells Energy Corridor

In Houston, Houston-based Define Living, a wellness-focused development multifamily firm, has purchased 10.4-acres in the Energy Corridor area for a 388-unit apartment development.

The land, located in the Central Park development, was purchased from Wolff Companies, which has developed a significant number of business parks in west Houston.

The new apartment project will be located on Park Row Blvd., on the north side of I-10, near Central Park West Blvd and Terry Hershey Park.

The new apartments will be called Define Living: Park Row.

“We are thrilled to announce the site of the future home of our second Define Living community, for which we expect to break ground late 2025,” said Henry Richardson, founder of Define Living. “We believe your home should energize and restore you. We designed Define Living: Park Row for people who want more than just a place to live—they want a place to thrive.”

Every resident will have a personal wellbeing coach. Other wellness amenities at the new apartments is set to include daily DEFINE fitness classes, indoor cycling and yoga studios, infrared sauna and cold plunge, two pickleball courts, a dog park, bicycle spa, fresh juice for post-workout recovery, and direct access to scenic walking and biking trails.

“Central Park’s proximity to the abundant greenspaces of Addicks Reservoir and Terry Hershey Park and connectivity to Bayou Greenways’ miles and miles of hike and bike trails made the Wolff Companies property an ideal site for Define Living, whose company vision and mission focus on wellbeing,” said Carolyn Wolff Dorros, Executive Vice President, of Houston-based Wolff Companies. “Wolff Companies has a long history of creating spaces in the Energy Corridor that enhance the lives of those who live, work, and play there.”

The mid-rise four-story community will have one- and two-bedroom apartment units ranging from 657 SF to 1,089 SF.

Following the success of its flagship community, 1888 Brittmoore, Define Living continues its mission to create spaces where residents can live intentionally and feel restored at home.

“With wellness programming for all ages, a built-in sense of community, and a location central to Houston’s business and outdoor hubs, Define Living: Park Row is setting a new standard for apartment living,” Richardson said. “We look forward to welcoming new residents and creating an environment where they can reach new levels of wellbeing.”

Mucasey & Associates will design the new apartments. Blazer Building will oversee construction, expected to begin in Q4 2025.

The largest remaining parcel of land available for development in The Energy Corridor, Wolff Companies’ Central Park is a large-scale planned environment located on the north side of Interstate 10 between North Eldridge Parkway and State Highway 6, and with the purchase by Define Living, now only has one remaining parcel for sale. Central Park is home to MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Central Park is adjacent to Terry Hershey Park and Addicks Reservoir, ensuring 50% of the development will always be bordered by permanent green space. Quality land purchase, thoughtful planning and high standards assure that Central Park, like all Wolff Companies communities, will not only maintain, but increase in value, over time, Wolff Companies said.

Last month, Memorial Hermann Health System has purchased 40.3 acres in Wolff Companies’ 587-acre Beacon Hill development along U.S. 290 in the fast-growing Waller community on the northwest side of Houston.
