7 Riverway has the most luxurious apartment living you can get in Houston.  It’s the kind of luxury high-rise living that’s more common in cities like New York.  It’s the most exclusive, high-end rental community in the city. The developer is Hanover Company.  Residents are expected to include high-net-worth families waiting for a new home to be built, corporate executives in town on a temporary assignment and area homeowners who want to simplify their lifestyles. The swanky structure is a cross between an apartment tower and luxury boutique hotel.
The high-rise has a bell captain, personal fitness trainer, events planner, 24-hour concierge service and round-the-clock valet service. Also available is 24-hour room service provided by the Omni Hotel, 7 Riverway’s nearby neighbor. Menu items from Noé, the Omni Hotel’s restaurant, are also available by delivery during restaurant hours. In addition, fine-dining establishment Cafe Annie will deliver lunch and dinner items to 7 Riverway residents.

Residents also have access to all-you-can-drink Starbucks coffee. And Hanover made a deal to bring in a collection of specialty chocolates from Dylan’s Candy Bar, a gourmet candy store owned by Dylan Lauren, daughter of famed fashion designer Ralph Lauren.

Residents also have access to a high-end conference room, large banquet room, private dining room that seats 12, catering kitchen, wine room, fitness area and indoor lounge by the sixth-floor pool.

Apartments in 7 Riverway range in size from 1,088 square feet to 2,302 square feet, and rent for $1,900 to $5,100 per month.  There will be 175 units.

The Resort will consist of 60 luxury villas and 11 estate homes built on 100 acres of the 550 acre ranch. The villas all highlight spectacular views of the Hill Country by incorporating the indoor/outdoor space with an Old World meets Old West by using massive walls, stone, heavy timber, tile roofs, standing seam roofs, paseos (open breezeways), huge verandas with fireplaces and much more.

It will have be one of the first environmentally friendly, all “green” resorts. This will be possible by using an advanced adobe construction technique in combination with many environmentally friendly materials. These materials will compliment the new floor plans and make wonderful use of space while maximizing the sensational views from some of the highest points in the Hill Country. The resort will also feature a lodge, restaurant and bar, spa, infinity edge pool complex, meeting and event facilities and an assortment of recreational activities including full river access, tennis and golf access at one of the top 50 private courses in Texas. Villas can either be used as a primary residence, or as a vacation property including the opportunity to have villas managed for rental.
