A new roughly 6-acre mixed-use development breaking ground in Houston’s East End brings...
Triten Real Estate Partners, a Houston real estate firm, is breaking ground on the first phase of The Mill, a nearly 840,000 square-foot, 6.23-acre development at 2315 Navigation Blvd., at the corner of Canal Street and Navigation Boulevard. Plans for the project include converting a decaying brick building into a boutique office and retail site surrounded by restaurants, open-air plazas and apartments.The Mill is poised to help reshape one of the East End’s key entrances from downtown Houston.
The Mill will be centered around an outdoor plaza inviting the restaurant diners, tenants and members of the public to mingle in greenspaces.The boutique office project will wraparound the existing brick building on the site. The start of the office construction has not been scheduled, but in the interim, Triten plans to clean up the brick building and enhance the grounds so that it can be turned into a temporary art gallery, beer garden or space for live music or an artisan market.
The Mill will be centered around an outdoor plaza inviting the restaurant diners, tenants and members of the public to mingle in greenspaces.The roofline on two of the retail buildings will have a saw-tooth-like top as a nod to the site’s roots as an 1890s lumber mill. Brick, exposed metal paneling and textured grit-like elements on the exterior will make it “look like some of the old industrial forms,” seen throughout the East End, said Jeff Clarke, partner at Michael Hsu Office.
At Forth at Navigation, a luxury apartment community that opened last year across the street from The Mill site, the project’s 300 units are 94 percent occupied with rents ranging between $1,700 to $3,700, according to the developer, Chicago-based Marquette. When Marquette first acquired land for the site there weren’t many newer luxury apartments in the vicinity, so the developer wasn’t sure how quickly the project would lease, said Darren Sloniger, president of Marquette.
