Lennar’s 69,000-SF Houston HQ underway

HOUSTON – A new two-story, 68,950-sf office building at 681 Greens Pkwy. is underway. It will be the new Houston headquarters to Lennar Homes of Texas Land and Construction Ltd.

Lennar, whose parent company is based in Miami, is the largest home builder in Houston, based on its 2013 gross local revenue of $575 million, according to Houston Business Journal research.

The new office building will be across the street from its current offices and will house 225 associates from Lennar, Village Builders, Friendswood Development Co., Universal American Mortgage Co. and North American Title Co.

Dallas-based commercial real estate development and investment firm KDC and Dallas-based Sarofim Realty Advisors are developing the project.

The built-to-suit project will include a 5,000-sf design center to showcase Village Builders’ in-home product offerings, plus an open, two-story lobby. It will be adjacent to a five-acre detention pond, which will feature a walking trail and extensive landscaping.
