Regent Square
Houston, TX - 2006
Regent Square is designed to create an intimate, urban environment that will be a focal point for living, shopping and entertainment in the evolving, mixed-use district south of Allen Parkway. Shops and restaurants with residences above will front shaded sidewalks, creating a walkable neighborhood that will be home to over seventeen-hundred residents. In addition to creating a place that will be highly integrated with the surrounding community, the master plan establishes a network of streets and squares that promote pedestrian activity. The plan establishes two interior streets that both subdivide and knit together the development’s 24-acre, four-block site. A public square fronting onto West Dallas Avenue is located at the intersection of these two interior streets. Buildings facing the square increase in height from four stories, to eight stories, reinforcing the importance of this place as the project’s primary public gathering space. The project’s first phase will accommodate 230,000 SF of retail and restaurant uses, 740 residential units and 60,000 SF of office space. Later phases will add another 100,000 SF of commercial uses, an additional 1,000 residential units and a hotel.
