News: Randall Davis Company - The Titan Condo High-Rise

The Titan

HOUSTON, TX – March 13, 2008 – From New York’s Madison Avenue to Paris’ Champs Elysées, the world’s great cities each have a distinctive address that epitomizes the destination’s vibrancy and sophistication. In Houston, that street is Post Oak Boulevard, the heart of the Uptown District (www.uptown-houston.com). On the evening of March 5, 2008, developer Randall Davis of Houston-based Randall Davis Company (www.randalldavis.com) welcomed more than 500 business and social elite to Post Oak for a combination sales launch of Titan, poised to be his most desirable high-rise condominium project to date, and VIP cocktail preview of Cosmopolitan, the fastest selling high-rise condominium project in Texas which will welcome its first residents this summer.

With the reservation process for Titan now underway, Davis anticipates a 2010 completion of Titan, a sleek, 26-story tower on a prime 25,000-square-foot site just north of the intersection of San Felipe – soon to be home to a new Whole Foods market – and across the street from the 22-story Cosmopolitan. Ranging in price from the $400,000s to over $3-million, eighty, fully-customizable “made to measure” residences will average 2,000 square feet and incorporate 10-foot ceilings, expansive balconies, steam showers, air jet tubs, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances plus granite, marble and exotic hardwood surfaces. Six multi-level penthouse units will offer private sky pools, and a third of the building’s homes will feature private elevator entrances. Additional highlights will include 24-hour concierge, six floors of controlled access garage parking, wine room, state-of-the-art fitness center, screening room and seventh floor rooftop infinity pool.

Over the past five years, Davis has almost single-handedly changed the multi-family landscape of Post Oak – once primarily commercial – adding four new landmarks to the neighborhood’s skyline, which in its infancy, gained notoriety for important architectural works crafted by the likes of Cesar Pelli and Philip Johnson, including Johnson’s 64-story Williams Tower, the tallest building in the country outside of a central business district. Uptown is a mecca for shoppers, and two of its most popular amenities, The Galleria and Uptown Park, respectively serve as the southern and northern anchors of Post Oak Boulevard. Titan and Cosmopolitan are located near Uptown Park, while his mid-rise Empire and Manhattan projects are situated on the southern end.

Located just five miles from downtown Houston via scenic Memorial Drive, Uptown is a bustling urban center that is comparable in size to the downtowns of Denver and Seattle and boasts one of the highest per capita incomes in the country. A unique and almost surreal landscape of architecturally significant buildings and post modern street accents, including one-of-a-kind signage that appear to float above intersections and reflective arches that span Post Oak Boulevard, is enhanced by lushly planted esplanades, green spaces and tree-lined sidewalks. This incomparable environment attracts more than 22 million visitors from around the world each year with its eclectic and comprehensive mix of more than 2,000 businesses, approximately 600 specialty boutiques and retail stores, nearly 30 upscale hotels plus 100 restaurant and nightlife venues.

In addition to Uptown Houston developments, Randall Davis Company will be breaking ground on Sonoma, a mixed-use, mid-rise condo project in Houston’s sought-after Rice University/Village area in May 2008, is currently in the construction phase of Diamond Beach, a mid-rise, beachfront condo project in Galveston, TX, and will complete Sapphire, a South Padre, TX oceanfront high-rise condo in summer 2008.
