Description
Not many people can say they live in an authentic historic landmark, particularly in a sleek, modern city like Houston. However, this is the real beauty of living at Alexan Lofts. Noted in the National Register of Historic Places as part of the revitalized Warehouse District, Alexan Lofts are a chic urban address with heavy-duty character and industrial strength personality.
To develop Alexan Lofts in the spirit of its heritage, Trammell Crow focused on preserving the architectural integrity of this extraordinary address. Incorporating the original warehouse buildings, Alexan Lofts are designed to showcase sixteen-foot ceilings, original brick walls, historic wooden floors, and massive beams harvested from hundred-year-old Texas Heartwood Pines.
Once known as the El Mercado del Sol, Alexan Lofts are the creative conversion of six warehouses built on the property between 1880 and 1920. During those 40 years, Houston established itself as a capital of commerce built from cattle, cotton, and crude. Located on the southern banks of Buffalo Bayou, this historic piece of land has hosted Houston's transformation from a small southern town to a major international metropolis in less than a century.
Today, Alexan Lofts are home to Houstonians of all ages who appreciate historic roots, a deep sense of place, and the exciting new promise for Houston's future.
