3009 Post Oak to start immediately

Skanska USA Commercial Development said today it will start construction “immediately” on a new office building in the Galleria area.

The 20-story tower, which has been in the planning stages for almost two years, at least, will go up on 2.3 acres at the site of the old Tony’s Ballroom near the Water Wall.

The company said the 302,000-square-foot project would be “self-financed.” It did not say it had a tenant in hand for the space.
