Biography

Sold half his apartment portfolio to Greystar for $2 billion in late 2021. Top of the market?

Owes his success to famously un-zoned Houston, "the only major city that really has no restrictions to entry. It's certainly allowed me to develop at will."

In the early 1970s he got financing from Ace Greenberg at Bear Stearns.

Trophy properties include One Park Place in downtown Houston and 500 Crawford, across from Minute Maid Park.

In the 1990s he built 16 projects in partnership with the Harvard University endowment.
