Avison Young negotiates 11,970-sf office lease on behalf of UHY
September 3, 2024Houston, TX – Avison Young announced today it has negotiated a long-term, 11,970-square-foot (sf) office lease on behalf of its client, UHY. The space is located at 1177 West Loop South in Houston, TX.
Avison Young Principals, Anthony Squillante and Dustin Devine, who are out of the firm’s Houston office, represented the tenant. The landlord, Hicks Ventures, was represented by Senior Vice President, Kelli Gault, and Executive Managing Director, Doug Little, of Transwestern.
UHY is one of the nation’s largest professional services firms providing audit, tax, consulting and advisory services to clients primarily in the middle market. The firm is growing its presence in the Houston market which has resulted in the move to 1177 West Loop South. The company was previously occupying 8,158-sf at 10613 West Sam Houston Parkway North.
“UHY selected 1177 West Loop South because it has great ingress/egress by virtue of its location on Loop 610 and the ability to access I-10 quickly. Also, in addition to wonderful building amenities like a conferencing center, fitness center, and a deli, the property is located very close to Uptown Park, thus providing our client’s team members access to numerous dining options,” said Squillante.
“The 18-story, 341,947-sf, Class A office building recently underwent major renovations and offers the amenities that UHY deemed critical for its employees,” added Devine.
The property features a grand lobby, conference room, fitness center, and on-site café with an outdoor patio lounge, among other amenities, and provides direct access to the 1,500-acre Memorial Park.
“The entire Houston team is thrilled about our new office space. It will not only accommodate our rapid growth but will help us be more central to our client base and attract talent to our firm,” said Michael Landers, UHY Houston Office Managing Partner.
“We are excited to welcome UHY Advisors Inc. to 1177 West Loop South and we look forward to building a long-lasting relationship with their team,” said Pat Hicks, Founder and CEO of Hicks Ventures.
