Post Oak Central

Post Oak Central is a commercial complex in Uptown Houston consisting of three 24-story towers that provide about 1.2 million square feet of office space and 90,000 square feet of retail space. The site features parking for over 4,000 vehicles and integrates offices with dining establishments, hotels, and shops throughout the surrounding neighborhood.

Development of the complex began in 1975 with the first building, followed by a second tower in 1979 and a third in 1982. This construction phase established Uptown as a separate business hub distinct from downtown Houston.

The buildings house several international consulates, including those from Qatar, South Korea, and Turkey, bringing diplomatic activity into the heart of the business district. Walking through the complex, you notice the mix of languages and international visitors conducting official business.

The complex provides ample parking and convenient access to restaurants and shops in the immediate area. Its central Uptown location makes it easy to reach and explore alongside nearby attractions.

Renowned architect Philip Johnson designed the towers, shaping the identity of the Uptown district. His architectural choices influenced how the area developed into a modern business hub that continues to attract further development.
