HOUSTON — Locally based investment firm Interra Capital Group has acquired the 600,000-square-foot historic Esperson complex in downtown Houston. Comprising two structures that are known as the Niels and Mellie Esperson Buildings, the complex is home to a mix of commercial users. The buildings were originally constructed in 1927 and 1941 to pay homage to real estate and oil magnate Niels Esperson and reflect the importance of those industries in the growth of the local economy during that time. Cameron Management manages the property, which Interra acquired by foreclosure through a note purchased from MetLife Investment Management earlier this year. Details on Interra’s plan to revitalize the property were not disclosed.
