"CenterPoint Energy Plaza (formerly Houston Industries Plaza) is a 741 ft (226 m) building in downtown Houston. The original building, finished in 1974, stood at 651 feet (198 m), but a 90-foot (27 m) extension was added as part of a 1996 renovation.
Designed by Richard Keating, this renovation dramatically changed the building, the Houston Skyline and the downtown. Keating was also the designer of the nearby Wells Fargo Tower. It has the headquarters of CenterPoint Energy.
When Reliant Energy moved out of the building and moved into the new Reliant Energy Plaza in 2003, the company left over 400,000 square feet (37,000 m2) of space vacant."
In January 2010, the building received Silver certification under the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED for Existing Buildings O&M Rating System. See: (
