A new construction project near Amos Street is aiming to bring a high-end place for residents and doctors to stay in a gated community near the Texas Medical Center.
About the project
Project manager Patti Prasher said the community, called Diran at Amos Homes, will consist of 14 identical patio homes at about 3,600 square feet with a 3-bedroom layout and en-suite bathrooms.
Other amenities will include:
- A second floor with a powder room
- A balcony off the main living area
- Two-car garage
- Amazon lockers on-site
The new community will be located approximately one mile from the MD Anderson Cancer Center and other nearby hospitals in the TMC, Prasher said.
Why now?
Prasher said the owner of Diran, Samuel Okediran, and his fiancée, Angela Nwankwo, who just completed her residency, wanted to create a unique place for medical center employees and other locals to have a place to live nearby.
"Our primary reasons for choosing this location area its proximity to the Medical Center, the opportunity to invest within an Opportunity Zone and our broader vision for community development in the area," Okediran said.
Looking ahead
The project is expected to break ground in May and take approximately 12 months to build, with a move-in date slated for mid- 2027.
