Thompson Hotel and Retail

Project Type: New Construction
Asset Class: Mixed-Use

The 172-room, luxury Thompson Hotel overlooking Houston’s Buffalo Bayou Park includes three on-site restaurant concepts from world-class chefs, a one-acre pool deck and an award-winning spa. Leveraging upon the previous success of properties in San Antonio, Austin and Dallas, The Thompson targets travelers with contemporary sensibilities and an appreciation for mid-century modern design.

Impact

By obtaining C-PACE financing, the property owner was able to upgrade the building envelope, HVAC, plumbing, domestic hot water, lighting systems and controls, which enabled Harris County to further its sustainability and economic development goals while reducing demand on the Texas electrical grid. The improvements are expected to reduce annual energy usage by 17% and annual water usage by 51%.
