Real Estate Broker/Owner with Waves Realty BK3246853

KBR, the global engineering and construction firm that holds many of the contract in Iraq plans to open a new headquarters campus in Katy Texas on the corner of I-10 and the Grand Parkway. The 80 acre complex will will be the new home to KBR's 4500 or so employees and will have eight low rise buildings with around 900,000 sqft as reported by the Dallas Business Journal.

Although the plans have not been finalized according to KBR spokeswoman Heather Browne, this move makes perfect sense. It will put KBR in close proximity to the other prominent Houston Energy Corridor players like Shell Oil, ConocoPhillips, and BP. The effect on the Katy area will also be a large plus in terms of jobs, housing, medical facilities, and tax base.
