Newmark announces it has been awarded the marketing and leasing assignment of 2000 St. James Place, a 332,401-square-foot office building located in Houston, Texas.
Newmark Executive Managing Director David Baker and Director Kristen Baker are assigned to lease the property on behalf of the landlord, Principal Asset Management. David Baker has worked with Principal Asset Management throughout the last twenty-five years and has served as an exclusive leasing advisor for 2000 St. James Place since 2012.
2000 St. James Place is a 13-story, LEED-Gold Certified building situated on a 6.23-acre lot with ample on-site parking, located minutes away from The Galleria Shopping Center – Texas’ largest indoor mall with over 2 million square feet of shops and restaurants. The building’s Class A amenities include a fitness center, conferencing facility, food service area and day care facility.
According to Newmark Research, leasing activity across the Houston office market totaled 2.9 million square feet for the first quarter of 2023, while net absorption edged into positive territory at 584 square feet. While the Houston office market will likely see subdued growth this year, the market’s long-term outlook remains positive and competitive given the market’s long-term demand drivers and strong economic fundamentals.
