Despite the uncertainty over oil prices, Houston continued to add jobs in November, up 16,000 from October and 125,000 since November of last year. Total job count is now 2,955,000. And the unemployment rate is 4.5%.
I'm not sure there is a public school where students who play instruments DON'T practice in the bathroom. That's what we did at my high school. Terrible acoustics though, play the right note and make the toilet seats vibrate harmonically

The hotel in KP Plaza will be a high end, full service hotel. Major brand names are available to choose from.
The market feasibility study revealed that the market is demanding a high end hotel with 250 rooms along with the proportional space for amenities.
The hotel will be managed by professional management company to offer the best possible luxury accommodation for business travelers as well as leisure customers.
Once the hotel is in operation, it will have huge impact to local economy. It will not only create a great number of job opportunities, but also high end consumers to the restaurants and other retailers in the KP Plaza.
High rise residential condominium is the complementary component in KP Plaza development. It will offer monthly rent to needed parties, a unique niche market in WestChase business district. The Condominium is also an upscale development that will share the amenities in the hotel.
The 120 unit condominium will be sold to public at certain time at market price. The convenience, the easy lifestyle, and the luxury feeling of living environment will certainly attract both X generation as well as some empty nesters.
The site is reserved for an A class office building of 200,000 SF. There are more than 500 parking spaces will be assigned to office building tenant in nearby garage.

We are open to talk to potential tenant, office broker and investment fund to build a specific office building according to their needs. We are also open to office building owner who want to use the building as their office, or office building owner who want to expand their building portfolios. At last, if someone insists on using the site to design and later build their own building, the option will be considered as well.

“I expect we will see a major mixed-use development on Washington Avenue similar to the CityCentre mixed-use development,” Rotan said. “This is a great opportunity for Midway and Lionstone.”
