About the project
The proposed development would be located at the southwest corner of Bissonnet Street and West Loop South on the east, near an AT&T corporate office building.
According to the June 13 agenda item, the building would house six levels of doctor's offices above a ground floor lobby and retail space.
- Property owner: Bissonnet Street Ventures
- Applicant: Project Luong
- Property size: 1.99 acres
- Dimensions: Approximately 79,000 square feet with a maximum height of 90 feet
In the application, officials said the building height will allow for ADA-compliant parking on each level of the garage and direct access to medical offices from any floor of the garage. The city's Development Services Department is recommending approval of the application.
Something to note
The property currently exists as a green space with developed sidewalks on site.
P&Z held a public hearing on the item May 9, during which some speakers shared concerns about preserving the large trees on the property. According to the site plan proposal, Luong committed to complying with the city's tree ordinance, including recently strengthened protection standards.
- Only four of the trees are intended to be removed.
- Removed trees will be replaced according to the new ordinance.
- The proposed building and parking garage are positioned largely away from the remaining trees.
Next steps: If the request is approved at the P&Z meeting, the item will move to Bellaire City Council for a vote.
