ARISE POST OAK FINALLY RISING IN HOUSTON

While construction has started on the newest luxury high rise to go up on Post Oak Boulevard, the project has been embroiled in litigation after its developer sued an adjacent building’s homeowners association that was opposing the 39-story tower’s size and scale, the Houston Chronicle reports. Developed by Dinerstein Cos., Arise Post Oak will have 383 apartments at 1650 Post Oak at San Felipe. Designed by Gensler, it will have an amenity deck with a swimming pool, a lounge on the top floor and some 15,000 sq. ft. of first-floor retail with a top restaurant. Houston-based Dinerstein purchased the site in 2015 and has been in legal battles about its construction since 2016. It plans to own the building “for the long-term” following its expected completion in summer 2021.
