Chevron Updating, Expanding Houston Office Presence

Chevron Corp. plans to spend $100 million renovating its downtown headquarters at 1500 Louisiana St. and another Houston office at 1400 Smith Street. The ten-floor revamp at 1500 Louisiana, to cost $66 million, is expected to begin in September and end in mid-2026. The Houston Business Journal reports the 255,700-square-foot project involves the “interior renovation and refurbishment of an existing interior office build-out.”

Gensler is the design firm for both the projects.

Chevron relocated its San Ramon headquarters last September. It employs roughly 7,000 people in the Houston area and has been renovating the floors of the two office buildings for several years.

Elsewhere, in 2023, Chevron purchased 77 acres of land in The Woodlands-based Howard Hughes Corp.’s Bridgeland master-planned community near Cypress. The company plans to develop a new research and development campus there, but specific details about the campus and a construction timeline were not disclosed.
