Built to Inspire: 2910 McKinney
Step inside 2910 McKinney, a bold reinvention of a 1949 industrial warehouse in East Downtown Houston that now pulses with creative energy. Formerly home to the Peaslee-Gaulbert Paint Company, this 65,500-square-foot mixed-use hub blends art, fashion, food, design, and retail in a space that celebrates collaboration and culture. Join the design team for an immersive tour exploring how careful preservation and minimal interventions transformed a dormant building into a vibrant destination. Exposed brick, steel windows, and concrete beams frame an ever-evolving mix of tenants from florists and chefs to makers and curators who bring the space to life through shared experiences and cross-disciplinary energy. Learn how adaptive reuse strategies supported both sustainability and storytelling, turning environmental and regulatory constraints into design opportunities. This tour highlights how flexible planning, heritage conservation, and bold restraint come together to foster community and innovation in the heart of Houston.
Refreshments and light bites will be provided.
