Texas Medical Center³
TMC³ Bioresearch Campus’ economic advantages will be extraordinary. Each year, the State of Texas will benefit from an ongoing annual impact of $5.4 billion. Nearly 23,000 permanent new Harris County jobs will drive that gain, representing virtually all industries, pay scales, tax levels, and educational backgrounds. Not to mention the 17,000+ construction jobs that will help bring the TMC³ vision to life.
The Collaborative Building is the cornerstone of our life sciences initiative, providing a synergistic, state-of the-art environment for the research of four TMC3 founding institutions: TMC, MDA, UTHS and A&M. Designed by world renowned Elkus Manfredi Architects, the TMC³ Collaborative Building is the first shared tenant building on the TMC campus. It provides 187,000-square feet of space across four floors, with research facilities, wet labs, office space, shared core labs, open spaces for impromptu idea sharing, a lecture hall for TED talks and other programs, and ground-level retail – all facing TMC³ Helix Gardens.

City/County Facilities
Harris County Joint Processing Center

With three full floors plus a basement level and secure tunnel connection to other county jail facilities, the 246,000-square-foot facility will serve the nation’s third-largest county jail system, intaking and releasing approximately 800 to 900 individuals per day. The short-term assessment level will house 552 inmates.
K-12 Education

The new four-story Keith and Alice Mosing Middle School features an advanced robotics lab, large maker space, dedicated music rooms for instrumental and choral groups, visual arts studios, and science labs. An added and exciting bonus is that the middle school will have a state-of-the-art performance space with retractable seating in the Petersen Blue Box Theater.

The Sarofim Leadership Center will become the new main entrance to the school and administrative wing.

Churches
Wheeler Baptist Church
The church, founded in 1962 will double space for congregants to worship with a new 80,000 square-foot sanctuary and additional education complex. The educational complex will also be added. The project cost of $35 million for the sanctuary and another $5 million for the 50,000-square-foot education complex. They estimate a 20-month timeline to complete the sanctuary building and shell for the education complex. They’ll then reassess before the next phase focused on the education complex. There will be a number of classrooms, a separate auditorium for Wheeler Avenue’s youth church and a large nursery.
