The Southwest Region has been an active area for Hines since the firm's founding in Houston in 1957. Its regional activities include project presence in Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Phoenix, Denver and Albuquerque. Signature developments include the Houston and Dallas Gallerias and the dozens of buildings surrounding them; a large portion of buildings that define the downtown Houston skyline including BG Group Place (the Southwest Region headquarters); Williams Tower (Hines' corporate headquarters); hotels in Houston, San Antonio and Dallas; major office projects in Denver and Phoenix; and a 10,000-acre planned community in suburban Houston.

A Current Regional Initiative

Eos at Interlocken is a Class A, 186,000-rentable-square-foot, LEED® Gold pre-certified office building currently under construction in Broomfield, Colorado. It is located at the southeast entrance of the Interlocken Business Park, one of the most dynamic submarkets in the Denver-Metro area, with superb visibility along the I-36 corridor. Eos at Interlocken is being developed on a speculative basis, with the belief that the environmentally sustainable building will satisfy strong current demand from tenants seeking to improve energy efficiency as well as their image of corporate environmental responsibility.

One Waterwall is a new luxury multifamily development that will be located on the northeast corner of Hidalgo and McCue streets. The seven-story 322-unit mid-rise will sit on three acres of land surrounded by three of Houston's notable landmarks: Williams Tower; The Galleria mixed-use development; and the Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park.
