1550 On The Green, Tour & Happy Hour - Houston

HOUSTON’S MOST FORWARD-THINKING BUILDING

Join us as we tour the first skyscraper in the state of Texas.  The design for 1550 on the Green comes from the renowned minds of the visionary Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and the result is a 28-story Class A office building that will set a new standard for Houston office space. In addition, natural elements and greenery will pull the feel of Discovery Green throughout the building.  

1. Design and Amenities:

   • The building features a unique side-core design and expansive floor plates.
   • It aims to blur the boundaries between park space and office space, with natural light and greenery throughout.
   • The rooftop includes trees, adding to its sustainability and aesthetic appeal2

2. Sustainability and Certifications:

   • 1550 on the Green is being built to qualify for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum certification.
   • It also adheres to other high standards, including WELL Building Standard Platinum and Fitwel Three Star certification.
   • Notably, the building has a 48,000-gallon rainwater collection tank for flushing and irrigation, as well as a district cooling system34

1550 on the Green sets a new standard for Houston office space, emphasizing sustainability, natural elements, and a vibrant workplace environment.
