ENERGY STAR Labeled Building Profile

JPMorgan Chase Tower
600 Travis
Houston, TX 77002

building

Developed and managed by Hines, JPMorgan Chase Tower is a 1.9 million-square-foot, 75-story office tower located in the heart of downtown Houston, Texas. Completed in 1982, and still the tallest building in Houston, JPMorgan Chase Tower was designed by I.M. Pei and Partners. The property's design includes a distinctive five-sided footprint with the faces oriented to both the downtown street grid and the points of the compass. JPMorgan Chase Tower is clad in polished, pale gray granite, and stands in a 15,000-square-foot granite-paved pedestrian plaza that includes a monumental sculpture by Joan Mir entitled, "Personage and Birds." In addition to office space, the tower includes more than 22,000 square feet of retail space, and a two-story Sky Lobby and observation deck on the 60th floor.

JPMorgan Chase Tower earned the ENERGY STAR certification largely as the result of a comprehensive retrofitting of the building's lighting in which the older fixtures were replaced with electronic ballasts and T-8 lamps. Climate control also was extensively retrofitted with digital controls enabling property managers to precisely adjust climate control systems for maximum efficiency.

Hines, EPA's ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year in 2001, 2002 and 2003, as well as the recipient of EPA's Sustained Excellence in Energy Management award in 2004, is proud to participate in the ENERGY STAR program, considering it an aid to leasing and a sound and responsible business decision.
