Miami-based AHS Residential has purchased the last remaining parcel in the Ten Oaks development.

The project will be the company's first foray into Houston and its second in Texas. The buildings will have 576 units in total, with typical amenities such as a clubhouse and fitness center.
The parcel was sold by Wolff Cos., whose Chairman and President David S. Wolff has been dubbed the father of the Energy Corridor and credited with coming up with the name for the area. The Energy Corridor includes a slew of other multifamily, retail and hospitality venues as well as Houston Methodist West Hospital and Texas Children’s Hospital’s West Campus. The development has been quiet since 2016, when Hunington Properties purchased 3.3 acres for The Shops at Ten Oaks, 20K SF of retail and a quick-service restaurant.
