Upon completion earlier this year, the BBVA Compass Plaza became one of the first new high-rise structures built in Houston's uptown section near the Galleria in more than 30 years. The 22-story structure features 12 levels of offices and 318,000 sq ft of floor space.
Eight floors comprising 180,000 sq ft will be designated for BBVA Compass, the U.S. unit of BBVA, a Spanish-based financial services firm. The building consolidates the company's work force from five different offices in the Houston area.
