Sugar Land City Council approved the preliminary concept for Lake Pointe Green, a 53-acre redevelopment plan for the former Fluor Corp. campus.
Houston-based Lovett Group will develop Lake Pointe Green, a pedestrian-friendly community with 25 to 30 acres of compact housing, including townhomes and roughly 720 multifamily units, plus parks, trails and green spaces.

Fluor left behind its 1.2M SF Sugar Land office campus with a move to the Energy Corridor announced in 2023. City council created a redevelopment district and rezoned Fluor’s campus at the end of that year.
Sugar Land's council approved a $7M incentive to support new park land, civic spaces and an expansion of the Brooks Lake Trail funded through sales tax revenue set aside for projects that enhance public amenities.
The city will also reimburse up to $5.3M for demolition and environmental remediation and up to $12M for public infrastructure. Per the development agreement, the buyer is required to close on the property by the end of July.
Lovett, which has overseen the creation of large-scale, mixed-use redevelopments such as POST Houston, could start construction by the end of this year.
