Since the redevelopment of Houston Center was announced earlier this year, many exciting changes are on the horizon including a reimagined central plaza and green space along McKinney Street, a digital water wall, flexible entertainment space, upgrades to the skybridges between the complex’s shopping and retail center, a new world-class fitness center, new dining and retail, collaborative spaces and much more!

In addition to the on-going developments at Houston Center, we’re excited to share a new addition to our team. While enjoying lunch with colleagues or taking a quick retail break, you may have already noticed our new colleague, a rather large robot making its way around The Shops at Houston Center on the fourth floor.

Affectionately referred to as Officer Fields, the robot will become a permanent presence at our complex and supplement our current security. Officer Fields travels through the space anywhere between 1 to 3 miles per hour and serves as a security presence 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

If you spot Officer Fields be sure to wave hello, although we can’t guarantee he’ll wave back he might offer up a few brief pleasantries so long as he’s not in pursuit! We welcome you to share your selfies and photos of Officer Fields patrolling with us on social media using #OfficerFields.

Also, if you ever venture over to The Acre at Allen Center, be on the lookout for Officer Fields’ buddy, Officer Brooks. They’re practically twins!
