Houston, Texas

The Telephone Road Elderly Apartment Project is an existing mid-rise 162,597sf 7-level apartment complex. The property is located at 6000 Telephone Road, Houston, Texas, on the East side of Telephone Road between Dixie Drive and Belfort Street and is owned by Houston Housing Authority. The property was constructed in the mid 1970’s consisting of 200 Living units with supporting facilities and common spaces for tenants. The living units are organized into 180 one-bedroom and 20 two-bedroom units.

The scope of work for this project includes upgrades to the existing site, elevators, and canopy. The existing roof will be replaced. All exterior and interior will receive new Signage. Existing electrical, plumbing, and HVAC will be upgraded. Interior renovations will be done to the living units, administrative spaces, common spaces, and corridors. The existing fire alarm system will be upgraded and new
fire sprinklers will be installed in the living units. Due to previous reports of water leakage at the envelope of the building, an allowance will be provided for the general contractor to perform a water test prior to construction.
