Transforming Houston: The Bold Vision for George R. Brown Convention Center
Houston is about to embark on a transformative journey that will reshape the city's skyline and boost its economic prowess. Houston First Corporation has made a game-changing move by selecting Hines, a global real estate powerhouse headquartered right here in Houston, to lead the ambitious transformation of the George R. Brown Convention Center (GRB) and its surrounding district. This landmark project is set to turn the 37-year-old convention center into a vibrant, world-class destination that will attract larger conferences and meetings, providing a significant economic boost to downtown Houston.
