Houston-based Midway has landed yet another company's headquarters as a tenant for its sprawling East River mixed-use development near downtown.

Houston-based Suderman & Young Towing Co. has leased 6,000 square feet of office space in East River’s Trail Head 1, which is also referred to as Building F. The building is situated next to a bayou-side greenspace, Midway said March 21.

“We are thrilled that Suderman & Young has chosen to office at East River, and we look forward to welcoming their employees to experience the dynamic and amenity-rich work environment we have curated,” said Anna Deans, vice president of investment and development for Midway. “We are right on target for debuting this transformational project in the fall as we close out building construction and move into the next stage of tenant build-outs.”

Suderman & Young Towing was founded in Galveston more than 100 years ago to provide towing and ship-assist services to a variety of vessels in Texas Gulf ports. The company provides such tug services as ship docking, undocking and harbor assistance; vessel escort; rig and special projects; and vessel assistance for liquefied natural gas terminals.

Suderman & Young’s new offices in East River will replace the company’s existing headquarters at 2777 Allen Parkway.

East River Adding Art to the Mix

HOUSTON – (Realty News Report) – Another public art installation will be joining Midway’s mixed-use East River project.

Houston-based RE: site Studio will be creating a permanent, signature element for a hub location between two greenspaces within the 150-acre project’s commercial, retail and dining spaces, and related connecting trails adjacent to Buffalo Bayou.

As designed, the stretched-out rhombus of a sculpture celebrates the East End’s multicultural diversity — as well as its history and landscape, press materials indicate.

A BLEND OF ‘NATURAL AND INDUSTRIAL’
More specifically, the recently commissioned piece will feature a tidy assemblage of custom, vertically bundled steel pipes that have been cut “artistically” on the diagonal to reveal colorfully painted interiors. Their patch-worked palate draws inspiration from African American and Louisiana Creole quilts and textiles and from Mexican palm baskets and deshilado embroidery (a form of drawn threadwork).
