Thomas Properties Group Signs Intec Engineering
to Retain Headquarters at Intercontinental Center
Santa Monica, California - April 6, 2006
HOUSTON -- Thomas Properties Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:TPGI), has signed INTEC
Engineering to an eight-year lease for 81,765 square feet at Intercontinental Center, retaining
the tenancy of the headquarters of this international leader in deepwater pipeline and production
system engineering for the oil and gas industry.
“INTEC is an innovative international leader in complex engineering systems in one of Houston’s most important industries,” noted James T. Thomas, CEO, Thomas Properties. “As a premier tenant, INTEC’S decision to stay at Intercontinental Center reinforces the center’s
position as a desirable headquarters facility.”
Intercontinental Center at 15600 JFK Boulevard is just south of Bush International Airport, well-located for international companies like INTEC whose executives travel frequently. INTEC has maintained its headquarters at Intercontinental Center since January 1995.
“We have found Intercontinental Center to be an exceptional location for INTEC’S headquarters because our staff travels worldwide, serving customers in every offshore arena,” said Bruce Crager, CEO of INTEC Engineering. “Further, we are excited about many improvements that Thomas Properties is planning to the building to better serve our
employees.”
Founded in Houston in 1984, INTEC is known for its ability to handle the most challenging marine hydrocarbon development projects in the frontier and deepwater areas of the world. INTEC has designed subsea production and pipeline systems in water depths once thought impossible to reach, in locations as diverse as the Black Sea, Mediterranean Sea, the Arctic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, offshore West Africa, offshore Brazil and the South China Sea.
Thomas Properties Group acquired the nine-story, 195,000-square-foot Intercontinental Center in August 2005 as part of a 2.5- million-square-foot acquisition of signature Houston office properties through a joint venture with the California State Teachers’ Retirement System. The building was renovated in 1991 with extensive upgrades to the lobby and entrances. Renowned local granite sculptor Jesus Morales created original sculptures that enhance the entry plaza. Visitors also may view a lobby display that showcases the creative process behind the sculptures. Thomas Properties Group plans to make additional investments in the building’s systems.
Earlier this year, Thomas Properties Group announced a collaboration with Houstonbased Colvill Office Properties to lease and market its Houston properties. Chip Colvill, in conjunction with David Baker of Transwestern Commercial Services, completed the INTEC leasing transaction on behalf of Thomas Properties Group. Steve Hesse, Clare Flesher and Mark Pillsbury of CB Richard Ellis represented INTEC.
“Houston is a market that we have identified as a high priority target and we are actively seeking to grow our portfolio through additional acquisitions,” said John Sischo, executive vice president, Thomas Properties Group.
Thomas Properties’ Houston portfolio also includes the 45-story, 959,466-square-foot San Felipe Plaza, 25-story, 574,216-square-foot 2500 City West and Brookhollow Central I-III, a three-building complex totaling 797,971 square feet.
