Park 249 Business Park in Houston, TX

Building 1 at 16225 Tomball Parkway in Houston, Texas, is a 443,500-square-foot facility that underwent a significant renovation and alteration. The project, filed under the name Park 249 Business Park, involved tenant improvements to include office and warehouse upgrades. With an estimated cost of $11,200,000, the work was completed in August 2020, and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) closed the project file at that time.

The renovation was privately funded and executed on private land for private use. Panattoni Development served as the owner and developer of record, while Mackenzie was the design firm listed in the filing. The registered accessibility specialist for this project was Sharareh Abdi. The work began in March 2020, following the initial registration in January of the same year. This timeline indicates a construction window of 147 days, which is longer than the Harris County median of 92 days for similar renovation and alteration filings.

In terms of financial scale, the project’s estimated cost of $11,200,000 places it in the top quarter of Harris County renovation projects, significantly above the county median of $250,000. However, the cost per square foot was $25, which is below the county median of $80 per square foot for comparable work. This suggests a large-scale, efficient renovation effort typical of major industrial or business park developments in the Willowbrook area.

The surrounding area includes various industrial and service businesses, such as Airtron Heating & Air Conditioning and Amazon HOU7. While third-party listings for other "Building 1" properties in Houston exist, such as at Sam Houston Center or Union Crossing, this specific project is distinct, tied to the Park 249 Business Park filing and completed in 2020.

The project's closure by TDLR marks the end of the accessibility review process. The work was a one-off renovation for this specific building, not part of a larger chain of new constructions by Panattoni in this immediate vicinity during that period. The completion of the tenant improvements in August 2020 finalized the physical changes to the office and warehouse spaces as described in the original filing.
