Fretz Construction Co. led renovation of the former Wilson Stationery and Printing Co. building located at 500 Fannin St. in downtown Houston. The building was constructed in 1932 and had been vacant for more than three decades.
"The challenge we had was to take an 80-year-old building that had been vacant for the last 32 years and make it fully functional and LEED-Gold compliant," says Robert R. Fretz Jr., president of Fretz Construction. "All new systems were provided, the building skin and skylights were restored and the finished product is exceptional."
