Four Oaks Place, Commercial complex in Uptown Houston, United States
Four Oaks Place is a skyscraper complex in Uptown Houston, Texas, managed by CBRE. It includes the 420 ft (128 m) 1330 Post Oak Boulevard, the 25-story 351 ft (107 m) BHP Billiton Tower at 1360 Post Oak Boulevard, the Wells Fargo Tower at 1300 Post Oak Boulevard, and 1400 Post Oak Boulevard. The buildings were designed by Cesar Pelli & Associates Architects, and a newer addition, 1500 Post Oak Boulevard, houses Woodside Energy.
Four Oaks Place was designed by Cesar Pelli & Associates Architects. In 1993 BHP Petroleum moved its US headquarters from San Felipe Plaza to the Cigna Tower at 1360 Post Oak Boulevard, bringing 200 clerical and professional employees. Weatherford Enterra was headquartered there in the 1990s before leaving Houston by 2000. In February 2014 the foundation was poured for Five Oaks Place, using 2.5 million pounds of reinforcing steel and over 8,000 cubic yards of concrete.
The complex houses several international consulates, with representatives from Chile, Italy, and Germany located in different buildings. This presence makes it a gathering place for people from many nations who conduct business or visit for diplomatic purposes.
The site offers ample parking facilities with roughly three spaces provided for every thousand square feet of office area. Visitors can navigate easily as the different buildings are arranged as a connected complex with clear visual landmarks throughout.
The 2.5 million pounds of reinforcing steel and over 8,000 cubic yards of concrete poured on 22 February 2014 formed the foundation of Five Oaks Place, the complex's planned fifth tower, not of the existing buildings. The tower was designed by Cesar Pelli & Associates Architects, the firm behind the rest of Four Oaks Place.
