Bryan Kang’s Dos Lagos Asset filed documents detailing plans for adaptive reuse of the former 292-room Hilton Houston Galleria at 6780 Southwest Freeway. A multifamily complex is planned, but the number of units wasn’t included in the filing. Conversion of the 200,000-square-foot, 13-story building has an estimated cost of $40 million. Dallas-based design firm Huitt Zollars is attached to the project. Construction is expected to start in April, with an estimated completion date in September 2025. Originally constructed in 1978 and remodeled in 2016, the Hilton Houston Galleria has been vacant since its lender foreclosed on the property in 2022. The hotel had closed because of the pandemic. It remains real estate-owned, according to the Harris County Appraisal District. Its 2023 assessed value was $7.2 million. While office-to-resi conversions make the headlines, hotel-to-resi reuse developments comprise 58 percent of Houston’s conversion market, according to RentCafe.

🌟 Why Corner Sites in Property Development Are Often Worth More 🌟   Have you ever noticed that corner sites in real estate often command higher prices and more attention? As a seasoned architect with development experience, I'll explain why corner sites can be particularly rewarding for developers:     1. Premium Street Frontage 🏡   Corner sites boast not one, but two street frontages, offering double the curb appeal and access. It's like having a VIP street entrance for each unit, enhancing exclusivity and appeal.     2. More Buildable Area 📐   With facades facing the road, corner sites often allow for more building bulk, providing extra square footage to utilize. Whether it’s adding an additional unit or expanding living spaces, corner sites maximize your building potential.     3. Faster Sales with No Strings Attached 🏷️   Forget the complexities of shared driveways and managing common areas. New town houses on corner sites typically offer independent access to roads and services, making them an uncomplicated sell. It's like offering buyers the freedom of their own standalone property—free from entanglements!     The Takeaway 🌐   Investing in a corner site can significantly enhance development potential. Whether you're developing for sale or retaining your investments, these properties can elevate your portfolio's value and appeal.   💬 Have insights or questions about property development?
