Conversion of office space to residential is gaining steam – lead by Jetall Capital’s Ali Choudhri, at several of his Galleria area properties.
November 4, 2022 (HOUSTON, TX) – Houston-based real estate company Jetall Capital has announced plans to convert multiple floors of Class A properties in the Galleria area of Houston into residential living spaces. This process, known as adaptive reuse, involves repurposing existing buildings for a new project, and can often be more cost-effective and eco-friendly than starting from scratch or tearing down and rebuilding.
Jetall is currently adapting several floors at premier properties in walking distance from the Galleria, such as 2425 West Loop South and 1001 West Loop South. These properties will offer a range of luxurious amenities, including gyms, delis, wellness and meditation spas, acupuncture, and more. Some of these spaces will be available for short-term rentals through platforms like Airbnb, while others will be available for longer term commitments.
According to Jetall CEO Ali Choudhri, “Companies are becoming accustomed to managing office staffs who are increasingly demanding more flexible work environments. Turning old office buildings into apartments or condos is nothing new, but doing it to Class A property within walking distance of Galleria, River Oaks, and Uptown Park is highly unique and has never been done before in Houston.”
The demand for housing in Houston is on the rise, and Jetall is well-positioned to provide some much-needed relief with its luxurious living spaces. As Choudhri pointed out, “While the world population grows, we increasingly see people committing to ‘Live, Work & Play’ from a single location. Less driving time and more time with friends and loved ones. Whether it is commercial building renovation or developing unique specialized projects, Jetall Capital will continue to be the thought and action leader in the symbiotic relationship between home and office. We love Houston and finding new ways to make this wonderful city truly a HOME for all our businesses and families.”
The decision to adapt these Class A properties for residential use is in line with the growing trend of flexible work environments, as more and more companies are accommodating employees who are seeking a better work-life balance. By offering living spaces within walking distance of the Galleria, River Oaks, and Uptown Park, Jetall is catering to this trend and providing a convenient and comfortable place for people to live, work, and play all in one location.
