📰About The Audrey Restaurant
The Audrey at Aspire Post Oak is a new 5,480 sq ft restaurant interior build out located at 1616 Post Oak Blvd, Suite 1A, in Houston’s Greater Uptown neighborhood. The project, filed under the name The Audrey Restaurant, was completed with a final TDLR accessibility inspection in August 2026. This confirms the construction phase is finished and the site has met state accessibility standards.
TDC Properties serves as the owner of record for this private development. The design was led by Studio V Architects, a firm that has registered six other projects totaling over $42 million across Texas, including locations in Corpus Christi, Dallas, and Midland. The estimated cost for this specific build was $1,200,000, which works out to $219 per square foot.
Construction Timeline and Scale
Construction began in February 2025 following plan review completion in January 2025. The scheduled build window was 187 days, a duration shorter than the 272-day median for new construction projects in Houston County. While the estimated cost is above the county median of $1,000,000, the project size is smaller than the median 8,201 sq ft.
The project is privately funded on private land. It sits in a commercial corridor near established businesses such as Kenny & Ziggy's New York Delicatessen and Maggiano's Little Italy. According to local coverage from bethwolff.com, The Audrey Restaurant & Bar was described as a second location for the brand, situated on the first floor of the Aspire Post Oak high-rise. The TDLR record confirms the structural and accessibility work is complete, though business operations are a separate matter from the construction filing.
Paul J Glenn is the registered accessibility specialist associated with this filing. The project was registered with TDLR in January 2025. The final inspection passed in August 2026, marking the end of the regulatory review process for the physical structure. The area profile for ZIP 77056 indicates a median household income of $101,932 and a median owner-occupied home value of $807,300, according to U.S. Census estimates.
