Hanover, a Houston-based national developer of luxury multifamily and residential properties that began developing industrial projects in 2024, announced the completion of Kirby 288 on Monday.
Kirby 288 was Hanover’s second industrial project in the Houston area. In November, it started its third in the region, this one on the north side.
“Kirby 288 reflects the kind of disciplined industrial development we believe creates long-term value,” Hanover Development Partner James Melody said in a statement. “The facility is functionally designed and strategically positioned to effectively serve Houston’s warehousing and logistics needs.”
Powers Brown Architecture is the architect for the project, and Colliers’ Robert McGee is handling leasing.
Kirby 288 is at 12150 Kirby Drive, just west of State Highway 288 at the northwest intersection of Kirby Drive and Mowry Road in South Houston.
