MAINPLACE TOWER TO BE RENAMED BG GROUP PLACE

A subsidiary of BG Group plc has signed a 164,000-square-foot lease at Houston's MainPlace office tower, which will be renamed BG Group Place after the natural gas company. Located at 811 Main in downtown Houston, the space will serve as BG Group's U.S. headquarters with the possibility of expanding in the 46-story, 1 million-square-foot office tower. The company plans to relocate from its current Galleria location in mid to late 2011. BG Group is based in the U.K. and is active in more than 25 countries on five continents. Its strategy is focused on connecting competitively priced resources to specific, high-value markets with a broad portfolio of exploration and production. Jim Bailey, Joe Peddie and Tim Relyea of Cushman & Wakefield and Glenn Pinkerton of Vinson & Elkins represented BG Group in the transaction. Chrissy Wilson and Stewart Robinson of Hines represented the landlord, HC Green Development Fund, a partnership of the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) and Hines.
