Developer Radom Capital rehabilitated and adapted Houston’s historic Star Engraving Company building into a mixed-use, retail, and office hub. The circa 1930 Spanish Mediterranean style office, courtyard, and storage warehouse is in Houston’s inner loop on a mature, tree-lined bluff, facing Buffalo Bayou.

Designed by architect R. B. Steele, the property was created for the Star Engraving Company, a manufacturer of high school class rings and other commencement-related products, including engraved diplomas and graduation announcements. Ryan’s Historic Tax Credits team consulted on the rehabilitation work, helping to secure about $1 million in federal historic tax credits and $1.35 million in state historic tax credits.
