New Health-Minded ‘Urban Oasis’ Development with Private Lake Headed to CityCentre Area

A NEWLY ANNOUNCED multifamily development scheduled to debut in the fall of 2022 near CityCentre will cater to people with healthy lifestyles who want to spend more time outdoors, say its developers.


Remy on the Trails — from real estate developer and private investment and management company McNair Interests, founded by the late Houston Texans football team owner Bob McNair — will be the first of two phases of a 24-acre, 330-unit residential development. It will be built next to a private lake and tout lakeside walking trails, paddle boarding, kayaking and fishing.

The amenity-abundant property, which will feature three four-story buildings with one- and two-bedroom units, also includes luxe extras like an expansive club house and resident lounges, an infinity pool with views of the lake, an indoor gym with accompanying outdoor fitness area, bike storage centers, and multiple courtyards and other outdoor entertainment spaces. The health-minded development also included the health of its residents' pets into the design of the 400,000-square-foot spread, offering a dog-washing facility.

"People with healthy lifestyles want to spend more time outside around Houston's great parks and trails," said Drew Steffen, a senior vice president at McNair Interests, in a statement. "The approach for Remy on the Trails is to maximize options for outdoor livability. We designed this community as an urban oasis with flexible indoor-outdoor amenities, and integrated work and play spaces."

Leadership in Action: CEO Theresa Roemer Credits Mother, Mentors and Mindset for Accomplishments

How did you get to where you are today? My journey to where I am today is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Every step along the way, I faced obstacles, but I approached each one with determination and a “never give up” mindset. Instead of being discouraged by challenges, I used them as opportunities to grow and improve. Consistency was key—I committed to showing up and giving my best effort every day. I also learned not to take “no” as a final answer. Instead, I saw it as a chance to push harder, adapt, and find another way forward. It’s this combination of persistence, resilience, and unwavering focus that has brought me to where I am today.

THE DOCTOR IS in! One of Houston’s most engaged civic leaders, Jacquie Baly, has a new title after earning her Doctorate in Education and Organizational Change & Leadership from USC.

And they weren’t alone in their admiration. Both the City of Houston and the State of Texas declared the day of the to-do “Dr. Jacquie Baly Day,” complete with official proclamations.
